What camera solution for filming snowboarding?

I have a Nikon d3200 but no waterproof case for it. Should I search around and buy a waterproof case, stabilizing rig (handle or other) and a good fisheye lens or would it be more in my interest (and cheaper?) to buy the new GoPro Hero 3 for filming snowboarding?

Added (1). By "filming" I mean taking video, it's just a term. Also, I'm limited to a 600-700 USD cost.

Keep in mind, if you want film that's very expensive. If you don't want film then don't ask for film… Ask for video.

A "decent" housing and lens port will easily set you back $1, 200+, and a decent rig is another $300+.

If it was me, I would consider (in order of price)…

Sony HDR-GW77V Waterproof Full HD Camcorder… $700
V.I.O. POV. HD Digital Helmet Camera System… $600
GoPro HERO3… $400.
