Just curious as to if your allowed to wear a gopro on a ride? More specific I guess, a place like wonderland and behemoth. I saw jennifer valentine on BT this morning wearing a gopro on cheetah run at busch gardens and though that would be cool to do.
I just got mine and thought that on behemoth that would look super cool! Im definately bringing it on cheetah run when I go in March, but they may be more strict here.

I doubt they would 'allow' it (for any number or reasons, safety being the primary one, a gopro at 100 km/h would hurt like a SOB), but what they don't know can't be stopped. Keep it hidden until you are on your way up the hill, then mount it somewhere.

That would be the plan, but i would have to hide the head strap as I wanna strap that badboy on! Actually on second thought that may fly off, better off with a chest mount I guess.

Not sure if he's on these forums or not, but a guy who frequents the Ganny posted this to his youtube channel earlier this year:

Not sure if it's "allowed" - but he definitely got away with it without even trying to hide it...

He definately wasnt hiding it! Would be cool to get the waterproof case on and go down timberwolf or better yet the waterpark slides!
I just got mine so still learning stuff with it, what mode do you think he shot those in? Full 1080?

I think with the Chesty you should be OK, so long as it does not interfere with the roller coaster's restraints. I've been able to get cameras on coasters before without much issue, as long as I could prove it is secured.
