I have a chest mount that I got with it. I'll try that out next time. I also looked up some settings and made some changes. I just discovered superview.

The quality of the video wasn't very good once I got going faster I noticed.

4k60 should provide good video since you’re in motion. I don’t know how it looks out of camera versus youtube’s compression algorithm, but I’d wager the camera footage looks significantly higher in quality. I’ve played videos back to back on a 4k tv directly from a drone versus the same drone footage uploaded to YouTube, and it looses a lot of sharpness. You could try plugging the GoPro in directly to a tv to compare for yourself.

If you do the chest mount, take note of how you’d normally be sitting/standing to help get the camera angle decent. I know your chest can be leaning forward a lot (potentially) on a bike, but that also helps a little if you’re going down a steep trail. It takes a little bit of trial and error to see what works best.

I'll try next time. I think I deleted the video on the gopro already.

looks like they're doing cameras on the chin part of the helmet (at least in the one vid I just looked at)

Maybe a little grainy. Did you make sure you're watching at 4k?

Switching to 4k helped a ton. I guess on my phone its set to highest quality but not on my desktop.

It's insane to me to see all the trees that are down or partly down. I don't think there are that many trees down around here.

Never thought about the downed trees before. I'm just used to that maybe. Probably ma y factors as to why there are so many.

New video.

my shorts seem to get more views than my videos by a lot. The last one I made into a short got over 409 views but the video only got like 18. Short attention spans.

That's so true! Short-form content just grabs people's attention more easily these days. But don't get discouraged - those 18 views on the full video are from folks who really want to dive deeper into your content.
 
Couldn’t do it. That is so narrow I felt claustrophobic just watching how tight the trees were on both sides. Props to you
