Helmet mount straps through the two holes right on top or just stick a mount on.
My helmet has threads for the visor stopper, so I bolt a gopro mount to that (I think the head strap one with the strap cut off) then then have a profound dynamics tether strap securing it to my helmet. http://www.profound-dynamics.com/Product_Catalog.php or PM FearMyWrX for one.

i just use a sticky mount, floaty back and parachute cord for a tether. i land on my head alot and some times it angles up even when i tighten it with a screw driver but sticky hasnt failed.

Use the wrist stap mount and wrap it on the face shield

I put the strap mount on and it seems to be pretty good
Ill probably test a few different things to see what works best

There was a thread on this not too long ago asking different mounting locations. Iv'e seen them all over, on the side, on top, under the visor everything. Comes down to personal preference. Regardless, make the small investment of purchasing the GoPro Lanyard by Profound-Dynamics here on the forums.
Don't be the dude that looses your $300+ camera with memory card cause you didn't buy one. To many people loose their cameras. It's a shame.

thats the exact reason i went and made one myself other day at the dam my mate thought he clipped his in correctly went round a corner and it did a magic trick and disappeared
here a little diy for anyone that wants to make their own
get some stainless steel cord cut various lengths you need
get some stainless or alu lugs 6mm hole
crimp together one on each end
you could even double loop them to make double sure
get a stainless or alu clipythingy
and attach simple and cheap

^^^If you google "broken go-pro" half the time they break the tabs off the go pro case itself(the clear tabs). I would allways put your lanyard on the camera and not the mount.

and where on the camera case do you suggest mounting it to?
*edit* i also have the floatie backdoor so if it does break i can still find it

Ya the floating door is a great idea. I havent set up mine yet so I don't know my specific solution to attaching the lanyard to the camera body. Some people were glueing them on or wraping the lanyard around the latch that closes the cases together. The best option I have seen though is getting the loop of the lanyard through the pivot pin on the bottom of the camera case. You can do this by either getting the pin out then slipping it back in, with the loop in place or making the loop after you slip the wire through the pin. I bought one from Profound Dynamics because for the $15 shipped I couldn't justify making my own espicially with the quality of the product.

What about the cf mount?
I've got one on the way precisely because I've broken the plastic tab mounts. The CF mount is bolted, though - I'm not sure how you'd mount that on a helmet. Mine is going on the front bond rail of my ski.

heres how i mounted mine. seems to be holding fine but i do run a profound dynamics teather which is nice because its shielded cable so you dont hear the cable slapping the helmet when riding.

That's a good idea. I have mine on the top of my helmet when I ride my quad. It pulls my head back at higher speeds. It also caught a tree branh and about pulled me off the back of the quad by my neck.
