Don't accidentally take your phone and 30g Video Ipod on this one....neither will work afterwards.
Gah.

That sucks! I remember the first time I went on Dudley's and I thought I would get a little wet. I had no idea that you really get soaked on the ride!
I always put my cell and wallet in a ziplock bag, and never wear socks on the water rides!

i do the sandals thing - seems that florida is the only place i will wear them except when i am on the beach or at the gym. Skate shoes get heavy when wet
the lockers arent too bad a deal either
buwahahahajust leave them (dont try and turn them on
) and put them in a bag somewhere dry, and a silicone crystal sachet.... then leave for a good week or so
Haha, yeah, I have them both sitting in a bowl full of dry rice...I heard that's supposed to suck the moisture out, lol.
I'm not too worried about the phone, because I covered the little white sticker that turns red when wet with tape, so as long as I let it dry out, T-Mobile should give me a new phone....the Ipod, though...Oh goodness. I would really miss it if it doesn't work anymore

Think positively. I was at IOA yesterday in the horrible storm and one of the guys in our group dropped his phone into a giant puddle and it was in 3 pieces. When he put it back together and turned it on later that night it was fine.

I thought that about my Blackberry the other night during one of our Florida storms... Same situation... fell into a puddle. I put it back together and it worked fine that night. The next day, it went to Blackberry heaven. I get a new one on Monday!

Oops, maybe I spoke too soon then. I didn't see him today so I guess I can't say for sure that all is well.

i remember when i rode dudley do right's ripsaw falls for the first time, and having to deal with being soaked. what was even worse was having my face soaked for which i couldn't see for a few seconds, and from that day forward i decided to wear goggles whenever i got on that ride (so i won't get "blinded" from the water spray at the end). as for the ipod issue, i have a waterproof casing (which also has waterproof earphones) for my ipod mini which helps a lot.

ipods are quite resilliant... i dropped a 24kg weight at the gym on my 30 g.... screen was destroyed. But i repaired it with a spares or repair on ebay and it now works fine

I learned to take the "you will get soaked" signs at Dudley seriously on my first ride. :ROFLOL: And if I was lucky enough not to get soaking wet, the nice people standing at the water cannons took care of that for me. Still, I love that ride.
Good luck with your iPod!

Haha, yes, the water cannons are rather enchanting
And thanks for the luck on the Ipod...it now works, but only when connected to a source of power, which kind of defeats the purpose. I'm sending it back home so my mom can see if Costco will switch it out for a new one.
