I have to say we have something close to a trakker pro and it has worked well. I got it on the classified section on this site for 125 with a camcorder that had a wide angle lense. It was a MiniDV so I stepped up in cameras and got a 1080p Dual SD camcorder and it mounted right up too. We have only used it once on the boat...I know how pathetic...but we have been very happy with it. We plan to use it more this summer.
I had to dump it down to crappy video quality when I put it on vimeo since I don't have a premium account but here is a video of the camcorder following the rope
Also, don't mind my crappy riding. I have got quite a bit more in my bag of tricks since then. We also had the speedo off so I was riding at more like 21 than the 23 I ride and I switched to a board that I ride better with.
But again, you can see the responsiveness is pretty good, a couple jumps it stutters for a second but recoils quick. Total invested with new camera is about 400
