As fans of H2O Audio continue to gather on Facebook, we contemplated how we should celebrate once our numbers cross the 5,000 mark.  When thinking of celebrations, parties come to mind, so that’s what were going do!  Once we flip over 5,000 fans, the Facebook 5k celebration will follow.  An entire day filled with contests, giveaways and deals, just for our Facebook following.  We’re gonna give away tons of free cases and headphones, special discount codes and more.  So tell your friends!  The faster we get to 5,000 fans, the sooner the Facebook 5k starts and the sooner we can hook you up.

Speaking of deals, it’s Spring Break season, and wouldn’t it be a shame to  go on break without taking your music with you?  Best Buy certainly thinks so and they’ve got you covered.  For the next 3 weeks check your local Best Buy store for the H2O Audio Spring Break deal on Amphibx Armbands and Surge Headphones.  Don’t spend your Spring Break in silence, be prepared for the sun, sand and water with H2O Audio.

H2O Audio Ambassador Laird Hamilton ready to Capture big waves

What have you Captured lately?  We’ve clicked our nanos into The Capture Case and gone surfing and snowboarding, gotten a fishes eye view of aquariums, filmed swim technique and the kids at the pool, plus one lucky H2O Audio employee is snorkeling with their Capture in Hawaii as we speak …

Now it’s your turn. We want to waterproof your iPod nano (5th Gen)!  Head over to our Facebook page and post a video you’ve taken with your nano or update the wall with a story of what you’d do with our Capture case. We’ll pick the favorites and hook up your iPod nano with a free waterproof Capture Case and Surge Headphones!

Not a Facebooker?  Not to worry, you can still e-mail us your short video or story.

Luke, I am your father....

Welcome to the last week of January.   We’ve been so happy to be getting some great pictures and videos from all over the world of people using their H2O Audio gear in water and snow.  We even managed to get some swimmers to grab a few pictures of themselves listening to tunes in the pool.  Gary who swims with F.A.S.T. Masters in Fort Worth, Texas made us laugh out loud with his Darth Vader impression using his Interval Headphone System.  Look for Gary to be sportin’ a new H2O Audio T-shirt around the pool deck.

With February right around the corner, it’s time to start thinking Valentines day.  Fortunately, The Apple Store has a few suggestions for you.  How about getting the athlete in your life an engraved iPod Shuffle with an Interval 3G Headphone System.  Add a custom playlist and your love will have a reminder of you that will survive rain, swim workouts and more.

The Open Water Swimming Blog has been at it again…they posted a follow up review on the Interval Headphone System.  More great tips on how to get the perfect fit that will keep you jammin’ through your whole workout.

We’ve got some great pictures of H2O Audio Ambassadors Natalie Coughlin and Michael Phelps swimming with the Interval Headphone System, but we want to see YOU rockin’ out and working out in the pool.

H2O Audio divers, kiteboarders, stand up paddlers, wakeboarders, kayakers and surfers send us pictures showing off their H2O Audio gear, but swimmers seem to be some of the least photographed folks out there…is it the bathing suits?  Not sure, but we’re looking for pictures of swimmers using their H2O Audio Interval Headphone System.  It can be the new rectangular 3G version or the original square Interval system.  Send us your pic or post it on our Facebook page.  Then, we’ll pick a few of the best and hook you up with an H2O Audio T-shirt and an autographed copy of Natalie Coughlin’s book, Golden Girl.  Ready, set, go!

Time for some big wave action!

The Eddie Aikau Big Wave Invitational will happen this week, says contest director George Downing. Either December 7th, 8th, or 9th. Wave heights are expected to consistently exceed 30 feet during these three days and contest directors are gauging when the best wave and wind conditions will cooperate. 40 plus faces are what is required for the contest to go.
