Water sport enthusiasts can now enjoy what dry land athletes have enjoyed for years, the ability to listen to their music while they enjoy their sport.

Having success with our original SwiMP3 and realizing other water sports enthusiasts need a waterproof player as well, it was a natural product extension The SwiMP3 Surf swimp3.com/surf is a waterproof MP3 player designed for the surf industry and other water sports. The player is fully waterproof and includes comfortable waterproof ear buds, a neoprene arm strap and can hold 4 hours of music. The extended battery life allows for 10 hours of continuous playback.

"Having success with our original SwiMP3 and realizing other water sports enthusiasts need a waterproof player as well, it was a natural product extension," said Finis President John Mix. Finis realized the market was lacking an MP3 player that was waterproof, compact and could withstand the rigors of extreme water sports. These days almost everyone owns a MP3 player, but few can afford to risk exposing it to water, even with a special case.

The original SwiMP3 introduced in November of 2004 uses bone conduction to transmit high fidelity sound underwater. The SwiMP3 Surf is for those water activities where the head is not always submersed. Arrow Team Rider Drew Reid was an early adapter, "The tunes are great when you're waiting for your wave and even better when you're riding."

Hawaii swim suit maker Honey Girl pro riders and paddlers have also been using the new players and are featured in some great female surf shots showing the Honey Girl pro riders, the Honey Girl surf friendly bikini's, and the SwiMP3 Surf.
