Nah not tried boom mounting. Its really robust & produces dvd quality video. It takes up to 8gb memory sticks. It's pricey $900, but I bought a cheaper make one for 300 which was a pos, so definitely worth the mone. if you have a look on their site u can see all the various mounting options & accessories it has. I use it mounted on a gath for both & used it for snowboarding too. I'll see if I can upload some footage to youtube.
