I don’t participate in the extreme sports that this handy little gadget is designed to help with but I do like to go out and about with the dog on lots of lovely hikes in the hills and dales. If there is one thing I have learned over the years it is that if I am going to drop something it will be the phone (or the camera) rather than the map or something that will survive a brief flirtation with gravity.
Spotted the funding drive for the KOALA and dithered about it for a few days before signing up, went for the 5 item option and am very glad I did.
They arrived just before Christmas which was excellent timing and two of them were given as Christmas presents. After some serious indecision about which colour I wanted to keep for myself I tried one out on my phone and amused myself by dropping it and watching the phone safely bungee jump while supplying the appropriate cartoon style boing, boing, boing! sound effects. It fits easily and quickly even if your phone is in a case.
Showed one to a colleague at work who does a lot of cycling judging by how hard it was to get it back from him I think he will be getting one for himself.
I have not really had much opportunity to try it out so far this year but hopefully over the summer it will get plenty of opportunity to keep the phone safe from crashing to the ground,
