My job has me on call a lot. Unfortunately my better half isn't prepared to be my kite biatch - sitting on the beach with my phone and honking a car horn if it rings. This means I miss a lot of sessions

Has anyone found a way to have a mobile out on the water, that you can answer and deal with problems? Was thinking perhaps a waterproof phone mounted on the bar, so I don't risk dropping it.

Any suggestions?


hey brady... Im on call one week every 5 wks or so, so i bought a water proof casing for my phone, the casing is squishy so u can press buttons/ answer calls etc, hangs round ur neck, i tuck it into my wetsuit top... saves me the paranoia of missing a call plus more time on the water!

kiting is about escapeing all the bs leave it in the car.

if you crash into me while your talking expect a punch in the head!!

What if you are planning a big down winda along a remote stretch of a coral lined island and would like a bit of peace of mind
