Hey M&A, this isn't really a camera question, but does anyone have any ideas on how to secure the GoPro head STRAP to your head so it doesn't fall off? Normally I'd just secure it with a rope and then once through the good old belt loop. This time I need it to stay on my head no matter what, as I plan to use it for filming a reaction to a new roller coaster (haters gonna hate). Any ideas on how to get it to STAY on my head? SPARKNOTES: How can I keep my GoPro head strap securely on my head and be sure it won't fall off? Thanks guys!

You mean that strap that came with it? Maybe engineer some sort of chinstrap so you can pull it tight. If I'm not mistaken there are parts of the strap that go over the top of your head, so that could work.

Well I got the naked package, so I bought it separately, but yes it's the same thing. And that could work!

I was thinking of doing the exact same thing at six flags the other day just for shits, but they made me take it off because cameras arent allowed apparently. my idea:
