Design and Learn!
I’m a true enthusiast for designing and problem solving so after a year of doing outside camera at Skydive Dubai, I was already playing with ideas on creating a better camera setup without all the day to day issues!
How many times do your camera angles change from helmets being knocked around in the hanger or on the plane door; potentially destroying the footage you work so hard for. Even the occasional bad openings that can knock off your ringsight. I wanted something better to eliminate all these expensive stresses!
So in October 2022, I dived into my first design for the Cookie Fuel to mount two GoPro's in a secure fashion that allowed for quick and hassle free movement into my Handycam for Tandems. Having over a decade background in CAD software with design and construction; 3D printing was the easiest way to develop and test through full-time non-stop jumping. This soon produced 1000’s of test jumps, with dozens of developmental versions and it soon resulted in a system that other camera professionals wanted the same!
This was the creation of our all in one, Cookie Fuel - Double GoPro with Ringsight setup!
Since then we have dived into the realm of what else can be designed to make skydiving easier in getting all the angles of your awesome jumps.
