Gopro cameras - can you fit to horse

[BBP]

So I was lucky enough to get a go pro camera this Christmas (the OH bought me half and I bought him half!) and was thinking now the bonkers black pony is coming in to work I'd quite like to get his view on the world. I was wondering if any of you have tried fitting then to your horse rather than yourself? And what works and what doesn't?

Wish I'd had it for galloping along the beaches of California last year, makes me want to book a riding holiday just to play with it!

I've been trying to work out if the camera (I've the go pro session so it's smaller) could sit between the ears & attach to the headpiece.

There's a wrist strap for the go pro that I'm wondering if I could attach to the headpiece instead - think that would work?

I was wondering the same. I have the wristband so I'll have a fiddle. I also have a pole like a selfie stick think I've seen people use to get interesting shots.

Some people attach them to the girth usin the wriststrap so I can't think of a reason why it couldn't go on a bridle headpiece. The only issue might be with a sensitive horse who will feel the extra weight/pressure and spend the whole ride chucking their head around.

I've seen footage from between the horses legs ie the girth. That was pretty cool.
