As a grom, I always wanted to listen to music while surfing. While waiting for sets, I’d imagine how I could make this happen. I even thought about city-sponsored speaker setups fit for Woodstock on shore, with a jukebox that only plays full CDs. (That way, you have time to paddle out before your favorite song is over.)
Along came iPods with waterproof cases, and I thought that was it. Bliss. That is, until my surf session today. I was looking for that one perfect wave you take to end on a good note, and I got it. Dropped in, and another guy started to paddle right into it. I tried to call him off, but he couldn’t hear me (or possibly ignored me).
Turns out, he had a waterproof iPod. Of course. Probably listening to my favorite song while catching my wave, too.
Lesson: Don’t buy one. Music and surfing can be enjoyed separately. Unless the City wants to kick down some cash for an epic speaker setup…
