And the pictures and videos taken from inside the pouch look fantastic (just mind the condensation - see my tips below). A few tips: - The plastic at the top can trap drops of water which can drip down into the pouch as you're extracting you phone."

"We used these cases on a vacation to the Caribbean and they were perfect!"
"His continuous response, mostly without listening, was that nothing could be done and not to blame them. Box contained three waterproof bags in black, green, and blue but only one ( can't think of what it's called this minute) lanyard in black. Is it meant to be interchangeable cause pic shows three separate waterproof bags with corresponding lanyards."

Find Best Price at Amazon"Here are some details to help those with questions like I had: SIZE: 1) As seen in my picture, this is big enough to work with iPhone 7 Plus with a slim TPU case still attached. It was not a struggle at all to get it inside the bag and there is extra room if your phone/case is a bit larger. 6) It warns on the box not to use in hot tubs and to limit sun exposure. YMMV but I imagine high heat will lead to seal failure or possibly discoloration of the plastic over time affecting your picture quality. 2) This is basically a heavy duty ziplock bag with a better sealing mechanism."
"I was very concerned about easy of use and waterproof but the product is easy to use, just opened it up, put my phone in case and all, sealed it up and was good to go."
"Finally got a chance to use these pouches on our cruise at different ports & they worked wonderfully!"
"The case fit my iPhone 7 plus and my husband's iphone 7, both with cases."
"Mine stayed in the dry bag for the entirety but my wife used the lanyard and wore hers around her neck. I have an iPhone 6+ in an otter box and it fit in the case just fine."

Find Best Price at Amazon"Also, you might need to have some kind of lubricant on hand to help some of these pieces to fit together more easily, a metal file, and you might have to (as I did) get some extra bolts that have a screw slot on the head instead of the round headed bolts that come with the unit. Take the shorter curved tube (part#2) and insert it into the square rubber piece (part#3). Next take the long tube (part#1) and insert it into the rubber part from the other side. NOTE: part#1 and part#2 have male/female endings so one tube slides into the other. Before you begin to put the bolts in place, you have to fit the large metal plate (part#4) snugly against the bottom of the rubber part#3. In my case, several of the bolts would not seat properly as they were supposed to, so that when it came tome to tighten down the nut on the bottom, the bolt's head would not "grab" into the square hole of plate #4 and the bolt would simply turn without tightening. The bolt heads are round (yes they look good, but...) and so there was no other way to keep the bolt from turning while I was trying to ratchet the nut from the bottom. Later after these are all bolted in place you can insert the two longer bolts (part#8) into the middle holes. Once the bolts are all inserted and the nuts tightened down (If your experience is like mine, you'll really enjoy this part) you are practically done with that part of the assembly that only has to be done once. You slide the narrow metal bracket (part#5) with the concave side facing the bottom of the larger metal plate and attach the wing-nuts (part#7), just to keep all the parts together."
"I needed some racks to haul my kayaks, so I went to a local big box store, and found a set of J-Racks for about $80 (a few cents less), plus tax. They work like a charm, hold securely at highway speeds, and do what they should do. I'm only going to gig my rating because of the length of the straps, and the lack of front and rear tie downs. Some have said (and there's a good Youtube video showing it) to put the blocks in boiling water to soften them up. I was about to do that, but I didn't feel like digging out the pot and firing up the stove (besides, with my luck I'd burn myself). The blocks are stiff, but you can pry them open while put the tubes in; it's really not that hard. (A ratchet box wrench is a great tool for assembly and mounting.). I can't vouch for round or square cross bars, but they work great on the Rola 59836 Hyundai Tucson Cross Bar I've got on my Tucson. They're wide, and not real thick, and the J-rack clamps tighten down just fine."
"larger kayaks catch a lot of wind sheer from semi trucks and make it scary to carry my Hobie Outback on this rack."
"As far as stability goes it's just about as good as the Thule rack mount, almost doesn't fit my square bars unless it's really tight though."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"When you remove both seats 2 people can comfortably sit on inflated floor facing each other and enjoy lazy afternoon on the water."
"This is an inflatable kayak, and those who review it in comparison to a solid hull craft are doing it a disservice. You are not going to go white water kayaking with this and you're not going to be going on week long jaunts with tons of gear either, it is meant to be recreational in purpose, nothing more. Suggestions: Drill a hole in the Skeg and tie a line to it and then to the stern of the kayak to prevent losing it. 1st time you use it make sure you reach inside and press the drain plug in the stern in FIRMLY."
"When I stretch out my legs, I have to tuck my feet to the sides of the front seat. You'd have to scrape against some jagged metal or be hit head on by a hard pointy branch for this to puncture. The fin/skeg works fine and is easy to install but requires decent hand strength to remove (a good thing). I drilled a hole and put a fishing line through it in case the skeg falls off as suggested by others, but this is unnecessary. I'm going to remove the fishing line before the next trip because it is unnecessary and gets seaweed,etc caught in it creating more drag."
"The seats are comfortable if adjusted right, the kayak tracks in a straight line especially with some weight in it and the skeg attached, the material is extremely durable and even with 2 people in it you have enough room to store some gear. Also with no gear in the kayak and going solo the kayak will walk side to side just a hair the wind will catch the sides like a sail."
"A genuinely usable intro to the world of kayaking."
Best Diving & Snorkeling Equipment
Breathing chambers inside the mask and an innovative dry snorkel allow you to breathe naturally and calmly through either your nose or mouth. The dry snorkel will prevent water from entering the mask through the snorkel tube. Surface snorkeling, not free diving, is the optimal use for this mask due to the large surface area the mask covers on your face. Spend less time worrying about water in your mask and more time snorkeling! SURFACE SNORKELING- Our full face snorkel mask is designed to optimize surface snorkeling experiences.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"From the reviews online I could not see the pros and cons of this mask versus the standard clear mouth type full face mask. --------------- The Seaview 180 Panoramic: ---------------. This mask is for the user looking for the panoramic view. Pro: Panoramic View; Truly panoramic. Price; better than the Tribord. Looks; mask looks the most traditional in my opinion. GoPro Mount; Good for those not wanting to hold their GoPro. Bag; Nice mesh bag. Cons: Demagnification; objects feel slightly farther away. Panoramic viewing might cause some people to feel dizzy after extended use. Quality; The quality is good by itself but when compared to the Tribord, the materials and construction is of lesser quality. --------------- Seaview 180 Snorkel (Clear Mouth Area) ---------------. This mask is the "standard/original" full face mask. This mask is well built but as with the Seaview Panoramic, when compared to the Tribord Mask, Tribord takes the cake for overall quality. Cons: Quality; The quality is good by itself but when compared to the Tribord, the materials and construction is of lesser quality. Every full face mask is so much better than a traditional snorkel set up but the Tribord all around is the best. Bag; Comes with a very nice mesh bag. Cons: Price. No GoPro; this is a pro for me because I prefer to hold my GoPro. No "true" Panoramic viewing. If I was purchasing these individually without comparing them, they all would get a 10/10."
"We've bought and replaced the typical-style snorkels several times due to all of those annoying issues that seems to go along with them (flimsy, leaky masks, breakage in the breathing apparatus, etc). We were even able to communicate without all the flailing hand gestures ;) Granted, you're still under water so it's difficult to hear, but since your nose and mouth are both free, it's relatively easy to talk. We definitely got a lot of strange looks, and you'll feel like a huge nerd with this giant astronaut-style facemask with big ol' straps on the the back of your head, but the ease of use and quality of the mask will make you super happy you sacrificed traditional masks and "style", I promise ;) Also, be prepared to have a big red ring around your face after prolonged use (don't worry, it fades quickly and it doesn't hurt)."
"The chin adjustment straps loosen up over a short time allowing the seal to break and the mask to leak. Use colgate toothpaste to cover the inside of the mask and let it sit until your next trip...then rinse it out....your mask will never fog up again. Set the straps where you need them and safety pin them or even use a paper clip to keep them in place for a good seal that will stay."

Find Best Price at Amazon"My friend who turned me onto SUP works at a shop that only sells YOLO boards and that is all they use personally, as well. I had only used a regular SUP so I can't compare to other iSUP boards but this one is really easy to get around. Hubby was convinced the gauge wasn't working but I had read about it taking a while to register and told him to keep going. That being said, it isn't terrible and I decided to buy board #2 rather than shelling out the money for a carbon paddle. I tell you this because with getting on and off the board in the middle of the lake --dragging my body out of a fresh water lake is not as easy as the brakish water I am used to in FL-- sunscreen got on the white portion and make it look yellow/dirty. We used them 2 days in a row and I decided packing them up wet is okay but I will always wash them right when I get home from now on. I used a sponge and a cleaner that has oils in it because I don't want to dry it out really bad with constant use to clean them. I also washed the poles and turned the bags inside out and sprayed them down --I don't want any weird odors from lake water having dried on them. To make sure it was gonna work with the board the guy went out and looked at it with me. Out at the lake a few people commented on how nice they looked =) I really like that the paddles match the boards. For 1- no one can take MY paddle (I am at the point I am getting over the "what is mine is yours" aspect of parenting, haha), and 2- I can see from pretty far if the people on the SUPs out there belong to me! I got 2 right away because hubby was getting ready to go on a long trip for work and I wanted us to be able to SUP together rather than taking turns."
"Practice or take the manual with you if you can’t remember how the valve is supposed to be to cut off air flow. I am very accustomed to 11-12 foot hard boards, and I SUP on the Potomac River in DC which is generally flat but sees its share of wake from boats, scullers, and currents. Disassembling was easy, but the bag seams are not very well constructed so be careful when you zip it up and be patient. In summary: Pros: Affordable, beautiful board, seems durable, easy assembly, light to carry once inflated, soft cushy foot board, sturdy tether ropes to keep your stuff in place. Cons: Not as stable as a hard board, you feel every ripple of water underneath you which can feel alarming, no Go Pro mount for those who want one, VERY heavy which may make traveling with it hard and that's why I bought it. ****Late season update:****. I'm back to give a little more of a review to the board. Think like you’re working on the railroad and do some squats while you pump it for an easier experience. I used the glue in the repair kit to patch it but it didn't seem to work because every time some water gets on the surface of the board, it bubbles and hisses. I'm still trying to get to them after sending an email, phone call, left a voicemail; and a message on Instagram. It's just a little tough and there are sharp corners that form that kind of scare me that they're going to wear or something. I really want to keep this board around for a long time, and I don't always have the budget to buy it, so that makes me nervous. I’ve been stopped so many times by curious paddlers asking where I got it and complimenting me on it, so I highly recommend it. Still staying with 4 stars because of the difficulty I had reaching out to Isle about the scratch."
"Do yourself a favor.. if you have been searching for the perfect beginner/recreational iSUP.. BUY THIS BOARD."
"I liked the SUP, until the seams gave way after only using 3 times."

"My son has been in the water at a very early age and wants freedom so that is why I purchased this even though it's technically a little big on him. It is important with relying on any floatation device to know what your child is capable of AND you never leave them unattended by water. My son did not like it at first but we made him feel comfortable and honestly at his age and with his determination it's the only way he can be in our pool at the moment. I purchased this 3 months ago and with regular use and exposed to hot sun drying it has begun fading and the design is coming off."
"I bought this product based on seeing a friend throw a 3 year old into the deep end of a swimming pool while wearing this."
"My son is on the smaller side as far as weight, he's lean but tall at 21 months, so it does ride up when he's floating."
"The other day he fell into the pool and the puddle jumpers brought him right up and onto his back."
"They're easy to put on, my kids (both with sensory processing disorder) don't fight with me when I tell them they have to wear them, and it provides major peace of mind with a child that doesn't know how to swim yet."
"Obviously nothing is a replacement for vigilantly watching children around water but these make it possible for me to introduce my kids safely to the water."
