Curved and flat adhesive mounts semi-permanently stick to the surface on which they are place. Using 3M stick technology, these mounts are great for both curved and flat surfaces. It is important to think creatively when using these mounts. Although these sticky mounts can be removed with heat (using a hair dryer), it is best to place these mounts somewhere they will stay for an extended period of time.
The quick release technology make it easy to transfer the camera from one mount to another. Simply squeeze the two tabs together and slide forward. This feature allows for quick angle changes without the hassle of unscrewing the camera from the quick release mount.
The picture below shows the two types of quick release buckles. The vertical surface J-hook buckle (left) is used for mounting on vertical surfaces such as the side of a helmet or the side of a car. The J-hook buckle is also used on the chest mount. The horizontal quick-release buckle is used for horizontal angles such as the top of helmet or on a ski/snowboard.
Creative thinking can be put to good use with the adhesive mounts. Below is a handle I created using the handgrip of an old airsoft gun. After removing the handgrip I simply stuck a flat adhesive on the top. Homemade mounts can be created from anything and can be a very inexpensive alternative to official equipment.
