NEWFLASH:
I have become good friends with everyone at JonesCam.tv. They have helped
me a good bit in making my videos. I have received a lot of emails about my
helmet cam setup
and that is why I made this page. My friends at JonesCam.tv (Mike Jones and
Pete)
have choosen to offer my friends a 5% discount if you call and mention you are
my friend. So go
to their site by clicking the banner above and call JonesCam at (518) 235-2782.
Make sure to tell
them your my friend and ask him for the Mudcon 5% discount. I researched a lot
of companies and
Jonescam has the best customer service I found.
