wonder how well it would work. i doubt we could hear it over most of our skis.
LOL i can picture riding with Gump and hearing him over the radio "cops on the beach stay deep" lol

Would be cool to be able to wire it into a helmet.

i saw those and was thinking that they would be a good thing, but may not survive the pressure of the water from doing big stunts.

I'd never be able to hear it.

It might survive. That looks sturdy. Wonder what the range is.

They sound like a great idea, just as the Garmin Rhino's sounded great to us mountain sledders years ago. It is a two way FRS/GMRS radio with built in GPS that will transmit your location and tracks to other riders with the same units. At $600 a pop (cdn$ back then anyway) they were pricey but the group agreed that they were a great safety device and each of us vowed to buy one. Well, 2 out of 10 of us actually bought them leaving us holding expensive but useless radios while the others were all packing $80 FRS radios. It's only a great idea if everyone has one.

In a different thread...anyone want to buy a "like new" Garmin Rhino 120 GPS Unit? (jk)

I reciently started wearing ear plugs while riding my sj. After a few hours of Brap BRAPP of the dry pipe and TDR water box I would get a lil ringing in the ears. I allready have hearing loss and dont need any more.

what would be perfect is a waterproof chatterbox
