The Rising Seas Wetsuit (video)

T

This is a fascinating product from @vissla and @surfirder that sadly makes complete sense. As the ocean becomes more polluted, those of us that love SCUBA, surfing, etc will need to protect ourselves. Surfing particularly is known for some pretty serious illnesses depending on where you surf.  Obviously, it’s not just the ocean. In Colorado we’ve seen the rise of the “blue...

The camera is called a the Socialmatic and the video below outlines all that the device does. They have 41 days left to raise the money and a long way to go. Donate now, if you want to be IDd as the photo-uber-geek that you...
