I thought I would try a little video blog experiment while I am waiting for the wind. Let me know if you want more

We’ve just uploaded a fantastic video of the new Greenbird helmets which you can see in our Video Gallery. The helmets were designed and created for us (for free!) by Jason Fowler of JLF Designs. So a massive thank you to Jason and his team, who are the leading helmet paintwork specialists in Britain. They do helmets for some of the biggest names in Formula 1(like Lewis Hamilton!), as well as for GP2, DTM, MotoGP and Karting drivers. The design is just perfect – capturing the spirit and vision of what we are trying to do here with this project. Very proud to be wearing a JLF helmet…

And this great HD video was filmed & produced by our long-term partner BHP Sport – and they are currently here with me in Oz, doing another piece which will be available on this site soon!

Here’s a shot of the new helmet, but make sure you check out the whole video – in all its HD glory!

This is not meant to be a professional video release, but should hopefully give you a few seconds of background stuff today, in advance of our proper film crew who arrive next week. No shots of craft running as yet as the water on the lake is still giving us hassle. The Greenbird team back in UK tell me that this clip made the rounds on Sky News and BBC!
