Any of you guys record your games? I run a setup for scenario events that works well but has a couple of downsides.

I’m currently running a GoPro Hero 11 Black Mini for my mask camera, a RunCam Scope Cam 2 4K with 25mm lens to record what I’m shooting at, and an old GoPro Session at the end of my barrel facing backwards to record myself.

It all works fairly well, but I wish I had better options for my mask mount. I haven’t found anything that I really like for a proflex. The camera sits too high and it’s got some wobble. I also need to figure out a way to mount a battery pack to my mask, as my mask camera’s battery life is pretty short.

    I don’t, but a solution I’ve seen is running a session inside goggles. I’m not sure how similar in size the 11 mini is but if you could swing that it would probably work pretty well. Brad from PBRML runs his session this way and I believe has shown how it works in a video before, I’ll see if I can track it down.

      Thanks for the tip! I’ve seen that video. I gave it a shot but it didn’t seem terribly safe to me. The camera protruded out far enough that my face didn’t have solid contact with the goggle foam. Less contact and more weight seems like a good way to have you mask pop off. Not something I’m going to try on the field.

      I’ve tried the technique that NightmarePB uses, where the mask is attached at the top of the goggles, but mounted in front of the lens in the forehead area. It seems effective, but I can’t keep it from wobbling and tapping my lens.
