GoPro Ground Spike

Sometimes the simplest way is the best way.

Since we’re talking about ski jumping, here’s another interesting angle: Jumps seem much higher if shot from below. Just mount the camera onto the ground spike, and stick the spike into the snow. Sculpteo offers this Ground Spike that allows you to take amazing shots.
