Is this industrial Velcrostrong enough to hold a Sony Action Cam to the top of my ski helmet?

No. If you stuck this on your helmet an attahced your camera you have found out the hard way. If you have not tried this, please reconsider.

The glue for it is but the velcro (like any velcro) is not within reason to do so.

I believe so. this is hard to quantify but i think it would do the job. You're sure to have collisions of some sort eventually so i would consider some kind of back-up restraint so it doesn't fly off completely. Maybe string or zip-ties?

I would not recommend it.....for the price you pay for your Action Cam, you would be better off with a Sony Cam Mount made specifically for your cam. I would not want to risk losing my action cam camera. For some situations and investments, you don't want to take a risk.

That's a bit large in my opinion but depends on whether you'd be jumping around a lot. After a bit of shaking, the handy cam may well dislodge the clip. The clip is quite tight, even to the point of being hard to slide onto the brim of a baseball cap. In my experience, the weight of my setup makes it necessary for me to really tighten my cap band, even to the point of discomfort. It's the cap that comes loose, never the camera/clip combo. Now if mounted on a helmet visor, where that's not an issue, and the thickness of the visor is even a bit more than my cap, I think you'd be in business.

It should. It's very sturdy and holds my 80gb Sony handcam which is a chunk.

We used our Go-Pro's for snowmobiling and attached them to the helmets - they work great and we never had an issue with them loosening, falling off or anything! the picture clarity and stability of video or stills was perfect!

It would be pretty difficult. The design of this mount relies on the 3M sticker which is a near-permanent bond to the helmet. I would suggest purchasing a strap mount. They simply stretch behind and over the helmet with straps and secure the camera to the helmet without any permanent residue or attachment. Best of luck, and have fun!

Attaching this to a head strap or helmet would be difficult, but not impossible. I definitely wouldn't try it on something like a roller coaster. GoPro has a headstrap that would probably work best for that, and it's only $10. I have clamped this onto the end of a broom stick to use like a selfie stick and it does work. You could easily do that instead of getting GoPro's selfie stick, which is a good $65-$70.

From my experience I would think so. You can always tighten the screw with a screw driver to really tighten it up if your hand alone won't do the trick. I would also use the grip with the water proof frame like the picture shows for added security. This will also reduce a lot of the wind noise while filming at high speeds. I also have the regular gopro frame but I wouldn't trust that to hold on a coaster. Happy coaster bombing!

You probably could but I would imagine that it would be pretty wobbly since the helmet is a round surface and mags are not so I'm no exactly sure how well the velcro would attach. It's a great Helmet anyways, very comfortable and the pull down goggles are nice, just remember to pull them down before a game.

I just bought this vest for use with my Glidecam HD-2000. Ask this question again in a week, and I'll let you know.

Oh yeah it will hold. Just clean the surface and make sure there is a good contact patch. The gopro arm attachment will break before this mount comes loose.

It should work regardless. It's dependent on how the Velcro reacts to water.

I believe a strong Velcro might hold however if you have an accident I'd be concerned about launching the vault as a potential projectile

I bought it for my chesty mount. I have not use it for helmet. But this item works for my purpose.

it does what it says, it works on dual overhead cams. So if you have a dual overhead cam it will hold them in place.

It's designed to fit GoPro mounts, but theoretically yes, you could just bolt it to stuff if you really want to go that route; not sure if it would be 1. Stable 2. Safe 3. Secure when directly mounting it like that, and you would run into geometric issues with the shape of the contour and how small this adapter actually is.

Yes, but make sure you get appropriate one for the helmet type. I had to use heavy duty velcro on the boom mic to prevent it from detaching from the exterior of the helmet

I cant say for sure but it is just head gear with velcro straps. So if it needs special clips you would have to use the clips you already have with it.
