Step 2Carve the foam block and attach it to the helmet and attach the camera to the foam block
The accompaying pictures show the general idea behind mounting the cam to the helmet.
The foam block not only cushions the camera, but it also sets the camera at the appropriate angle. The idea is that the camera will be pointed at whatever you're looking at with your eyes straight ahead. You probably have to give this a few tries to get the angle of the camera right.
Attach the foam block to the helmet with the cable ties.
Attach the camera to the foam block with some light weight bunji cord.
Install another cable tie to the helmet to attach the camera strap to in case the camera works its way loose of the bunjis.

If you get a waterproof camera, yes. Seals on the camera's access doors also need to be maintained if the camera is to stay waterproof.
