I love this cam.
This is my 2nd Contour cam, 1st being the ContourHD and I really like the upgrades. Now all my friends ask me to get their speed down the slope and since I got 2 cams. I use the pole mount for my ContourHD to get closer and different angles while skiing down slopes or hitting the park.
It's really cool that it comes with a waterproof case.
The Contour cams are easy to use and with Contour+2 its even easier. just slide the button forward and you are recording.
I am much happier with the Contour+2 than the ContourHD due to the GPS and how much easier it is to use.
Got 2 friends with the GoPro cam and they hardly use it, I use mine all the time. Really like how easy it is to mount and how sleak it look on top of the helmet, and not being a huge box high up over the helmet like the GoPro.
Much, much better than the CountourGPS

They have fixed many annoying things over the previous Contour GPS version which I actually returned to REI because I was fed up with it.
Improvements:
1) Battery life seems to much longer.
2) no stupid two button on off system. Now you just slide the record button and it turns on. Before there was this impossible on/off button that you could not easily get to with gloves on...so the battery would just die even though you were not recording.
3) GPS now actually seems to work. I could never get a fix before at the top of Squaw...not sure how that is even possible. Now 90% of my movies have a GPS track along with current speed and altitude.
4) Video quality seems slightly better...but then again the video quality for snow sports has always been awsome.
5) Waterproof case is now included.
All in all, I am much happier....and prefer the side mounting to the go pro which I think looks stupid.
user error?

now, I'm no warren miller, but the movies I made were pretty cool. they showed what I was shooting at and had pretty good sound pick-up. But after a year I'm losing the love... it feels like the novelty is wearing off. I probably am better on the other end of the lense.

Or try out different mounts. I strap mine to the ski pole when I'm skiing to add a different angle and to shoot me as I go down the slopes (or off)
