“Exxxxttttrreeeeeeeeemmmme!”

That’s you’ll be screaming at the top of your lungs as you plunge down the unmarked terrain in your super extreme snowboard, jumping and flipping off of snow banks while giving off a gnarly signal with your hand. Best of all, this entire experience can be recorded from a first-person view. Keeping both your hands free to do whatever you need to do, the O’Neill CamPack — as its name implies — is a backpack with a built-in camcorder.

The “seperate, wired high definition lens… can be attached to the strap of the goggle or helmet.” The camera can be controlled remotely via the joystick on your shoulder straps. All the while, you can be taking Bluetooth conversations on your cell phone or listening to music on your iPod. Now that’s extreme.

Note: We here at Mobile Magazine recommend that you stay on marked trails and never do anything remotely dangerous whatsoever. Just sit at your computer and read our online publication. Thank you.
