Chest Mounted Tri-Pods

The Hitcase Polycarbonate iPhone Case & Chestr Mount are Great Film Aids

— January 5, 2013 — Tech
If you're into snowboarding, skiing, snowboarding or basically any outdoor sport, this polycarbonate iPhone case and chest mounted carrier are the perfect way to get some great footage.

The polycarbonate iPhone case is called the Hitcase, presumably because it can take a hit and hold onto your phone. It is shockproof, dustproof, and waterproof to 33 feet (10 meters.) At the moment, this polycarbonate iPhone case is only available for the iPhone 4 and 4S, with a version for the 5 model on the way.

To go with the HitCase, you can pick up the Chestr Mount which will strap the phone onto your chest by way of a sling-like accessory. So imagine your biking down a rugged trail and as you bounce in and out of dips and jumps, your phone moves with your chest and takes every bump in stride giving you a great film when you're done.
