I go snowboarding a lot and after falling with your full weight landing on your phone with icy hard-packed snow beneath, this is a must for your precious iPhone. Put it in your snow jacket pocket, listen to tunes while carving, not a worry in the world. The crushproof and water-tightness of this case sells it for me.

I also go kayak fishing, so this will also be useful then.

I went fly fishing yesterday and had my iPhone in 3 ziplock bags. It worked but every time i slipped in the river I freaked out about water. I think I might get one of these cases just to have my phone on the river (I know, it kind of defeats the object of getting away from it all but my wife travels a lot and likes to get hold of me)

I use the RunMeter app as a low-cost runner’s GPS. I’m considering this case after sweat got into my iPhone and killed it. I had an armband case that didn’t fully protect the phone, so this looks interesting and better than others I’ve seen.

Thanks for pointing that out, because I completely missed that point.

It comes with a headphone cord that plugs into the device on the inside, then leads to a pivoting arm on the outside that you can plug a headset into.

I’ve put my iPhone in a ziplock when heading to concerts or sports events where rain is in the forcast, so I can understand the desire for something a bit more purpose built than a ziplock when going outside in potentially bad weather.

One question I had was how headphones or speakers can attach when it is sealed. You mentioned rafting (not something i’m likely to have to worry about) and listening to tunes — is there really a way to hook up headphones or speakers to an iPhone enclosed in this thing, and maintain a seal?
