Biker Pros’ Flying Chair Goes 100mph

 

George Emmons Najar, Media Engineer for Biker Pros, designed and manufactured a video shooting chair for high-speed motorcycle passes on video shoots.

The Flying Chair is used in videos for Biker Pros’ clients and assists in telling a compelling story. The first video using the chair is a vidcast about a new set of Fat Cat exhaust pipes from D&D Performance Enterprises.

The chair connects to a tow hitch and allows the videographer to shoot motorcycles at a road-level vantage point at 180 degrees. It improves the quality and excitement of the video by allowing the shooter to get closer to the action.

At the 2008 BUB Speed Trials in Bonneville the flying chair successfully recorded racers at 100 mph and took corners of 50 mph. Videos of Bonneville will be available in Bikernet Studio at www.bikernet.com.

The custom flying chair is built from aircraft grade aluminum and features a 5-point harness and Sprint Car seat. D&D Performance Enterprises welded the frame and Brass Balls Bobbers provided the custom motorcycle pegs.
