Attach a tether through the metal hinge at the bottom / back of the case. Never use one without it!

Yep thats what I do. I use some fine cord and have a clip secured to the end of it. I use zip ties which are left on my helmet, boom, mast mount etc so that I just need to clip the leash to them...no messing about with bits of string or knots.

Rod, that photo is outstanding. I wish it had been taken with a Flymount!

SteveE, I've got your email, but I can't send a reply from the computer I'm on - I'll get back to you tomorrow morning, I think I've got a solution that you might be interested in.

Yes, great pic, Rod!
Angling the camera off to one side like you do frames the jumps really well - what happens when you're riding a wave back in, do you get useable shots? I guess most if the time our conditions are more jump orientated, so setting up like that makes sense.
also is that a frame grab from video, or is the camera taking timed shots, and on what mode?
i haven't sailed with my camera in ages, gotta sort myself out.
