The Tony Hawk Helmet Cam is designed for skate punks who want to record their faceplants and other smooth moves for posterity.

The little camera straps onto any helmet and can be aimed with a laser-targeting system. Press one button, and it’ll record your hijinx onto an SD memory card (the cam includes an anemic 32MB card, but memory cards are cheap these days)…

There’s a video floating around on YouTube demoing Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam for the Nintendo Wii. While the game doesn’t look terrible, I have to say it’s time to retire this whole franchise. There’s really nothing innovative here, and the whole thing kinda smells like a poor cousin of the SSX franchise…
