Has anyone successfully used a waterproof radio that really works and stays on during flip turns, butterfly, etc?
I sometimes just like to do long pull workouts and would love to be able to listen to the radio. I do about 1:25 or 1:30 pace when I do long freestyle pull sessions. Not what you would call blinding speed but I am curious if any of the waterproof radios I have seen advertised for swimming actually stay on for something more than a leisurely breaststroke. Thanks.

I got a Speedo SurfRunner for Christmas. It came without the battery installed. I installed the battery quite well, in my opinion... I have a lot of experience with o rings as I have done a bit of underwater photography... anyway, it stayed on great for the 1.5 laps that it took to flood it!!! I am going to mail it back to Speedo this week so that they can fix it. I hope that they don't find me at fault!!!
Anyway, if you get one of these, be careful putting the battery in!
