DIY Camera Dolly

Hi,

I was wondering if anybody would have some ideas for a small camera dolly ideal for shooting action sports, somthing easy to transpot, may 4 feet long at most and maybe 10 inches wide, it doesnt need to support a tripod, just a head. If anyone has any experience with this tips would be greatly appreciated.


ps. I film mostly snowboarding and skateboarding.
 
dont know how much money you want to spend but do a search for dolly or ladder dolly and you get a lot of hits from your search so you get an idea.
 
I have a dolly that I can strap to my camera backpack. And I have about 3 feet of usable PVC that I strap to my backpack as well. It's perfect for getting around fast, easy, and comfortably with a dolly. I bought my setup from a company out of Washington, but I'm pretty sure that they went out of business because I had to wait over 2 months to receive a product from them, so I highly recommend that you don't order anything from them. I think I just got really lucky that they finally decided to send it because I had bought something from them earlier and had no problem at all.
