Yes, here!!! ;)

Started only a few month ago, got a used "Windtools Scooter", >20years old. So far I love it! Perfect for days with "uncertain" wind, using my Single Skin I can ride VERY early!

I have bought insurance together with the cam on Amazon... Was 27€ and it covers all damage for the next 3 Years, up to 3 incidents per year. So as long as I don't loose the cam, I am fine ;)

It is very likely to need this insurance, as the lenses have to stick out on a 360 cam to capture a full 360 degree image - and they can scratch very easy...

I am sure, that insurance is too cheap ;) Amazon offers it for all Digital Cameras, they only consider the price of the camera, not what type of camera it is... So it's a good deal for the buyer ;)
