Itchy Boots

You have Itchy Boots Mail!
Oh, so excited! Because she FINALLY posts a link to her Season 6 gear list, and I've been waiting since E1 to see what the new GoPro chinbar mount is that she's using.
It definitely is not the ProShot of seasons past.
And now I'm so disappointed!
After going into great detail about her RevIt! clothing, her high-zoot boots, her smaller Mosko bag setup, her new Garmin Montana GPS, and the Sena Bluetooth communicator, here is her statement about filming from the helmet:
"I mount one GoPro to my helmet, and have one attached to the handlebar."
Oh, good grief!
Can some eagle-eyed purveyor of Noraly's videos please identify the camera mount on her chinbar?
Google hasn't returned this model, and I've paused and rewound the video segments I thought would help.
I'm guessing it may be a Euro-based product, but comments and questions on her YouTube channel hasn't produced results, either... I will go to ADVrider next.
Did I somehow turn off of the Information Highway?
EDIT: I left a question after logging into her blog, and got "Thanks! Your message has been sent. My support team will reply soon."
That would be nice. I can wait.

I believe it looks like the Telesin Mount

Thanks for this.
I actually did find this in Amazon yesterday, but when I saw it had velcro straps, I dismissed it because I thought Noraly would want a cleaner mount than that.
Maybe not.
But the straps will prevent the faceshield from sealing at the top of the chinbar of my Neotec - or ANY helmet - so that's a deal-breaker for me... unless you ride strictly with goggles,
and she is using her quick-release goggles more, in South America.
I'll have to see if ProShot will replace their mounting nut piece, as it doesn't interfere with the seal.
Not having a good seal will obviously allow rain to drip down inside the visor -- no bueno!
Although it's half the price of the ProShot, it won't work on my street helmet.
 
Really? I don’t see the challenge.

I’d wheelie up the ramp, pivot to the left and back into the basket. Since my 1100 isn’t a garage queen, a few scratches here and there isn’t a big deal for me. On the other side, I’d simply ride off.

I’d say Noraly is getting soft. 30 metres over the river? Phhht! Next thing you know, she’ll have a support van and camera crew. Sad, really.

And…

Zzzzzzzzzs…

Huh? What? I was NOT sleeping! Was I? What a dream…

On a serious note, she continues to amaze me. Words fail me.
 
The bridge was about 20km away. The basket was an experience she can talk about forever. That is what makes the best stories is the scary and stupid stuff we get away with. For people it seems okay, moving a bike, even a little one like Alaska is a challenge.
 
Pretty clever how she got out, seemed relatively quick too. She finds the darndest places to ride.
 
I just started watching her series last week and would recommend it to anyone interested in motorcycle adventure riding and exploration. I think I'll start from season one and continue on until I reach her most current VLOG. Thanks for turning me on to this everyone!
 
She’s well over 950,000 subscribers now. Recommend her to your friends. My son’s hooked now.

The previous episode was fantastic… in the jungle… dirt track up in the clouds… drone about to go IFR… just wonderful!!

l almost hate to say it, but when I notice it I find myself unable to ignore it completely… I’m referring to her new GPS right in the lower line of sight blocking part of the forward view… arrrgh… <big sigh> Oh well…

Anyway.. she’s a real day brightener.
