I broke my first one skiing with it.  I now leave it in my car.  

Your response was uncalled for. 

You, are the idiot.

i ski with mine everytime. its nice cause then you dont need to have your ipod and phone on you. except one time i put it in my pocket with candy in it and got a nerd stuck in the headphone jack. it never played the same so dont do that.

i picked up a cheap mp3 player for like 49 bucks and i take that skiing, then i dont haveta worry, but its usually a good idea to have a phone on the hill with you, so i would have a cheaper one of that too

"wasn't sure if it was a death sentence to take skiing like it is with ipod"

she is speaking about music, you spoke about a phone. Correlated, in this case yes. I jumped the gun and assumed you were one of the million other idiots.

pretty durable, mine hasn't broke yet
although once it fell out of my pocket on a jump and almost got skied over, but surprisingly it still worked after sitting in the snow for a couple of minutes...

i agree

and my dad skis with his iphone fine, needless to say he doesn't ride park, but still

and i know someone who does ride park and rides with it, just throw it in a chest pocket, that reduces the risk of it getting landed on
