Help, Ice skating+ cell phone = bad?

Question

Skating season on the ponds has started, just got my skates sharpened :). Anyway, last year i had an old razor that was just to make calls and what not, so i kept it in my pants pocket, but now i have a 350 dollar touchscreen, so i can't keep it in my pocket, especially when skating. At school and whenever else I carry it in a sweatshirt pocket. My mom told me i need to have a phone when I'm on the pond (in case of an emergency) I have the case for it, but if i fell down I would probably crush the phone, I don't know what to do!

Answer 1

Oh nice phone! Lucky duck! Anyways.. Set the ringer on high and place it at the edge of the pond or get a case specifically designed for skating or other high impact or intesity sports! The harder the better, then pace it in an inside pocket in your coat, that way if you fall it is less likely you will break it!

Answer 2

chances are, if you fall its going to be on your butt so just wear pants with front pockets and put it in there. a case wouldnt be a bad idea either

Answer 3

strap it to the top of your head so when you fall it wont crush it

Answer 4

dont go near the pond son

Answer 5

I would suggest getting some type of protective case to put your phone in. Good luck!

Answer 6

Get a case that has a strap to wrap around your arm!

Answer 7

You need to find a case that's hard, and maybe line it with something.

When I go swimming I use a tin pencil case to put my glasses in, when I put them in the locker. I prefer this to just putting them in there loose, in case they fall out when I open the locker or if something falls on them while they're in there.

I bought a cheap tin pencil case, lined it with old material - you could buy a face cloth if you have nothing else.

So if it was me I'd try and find something similiar that fit your phone and your pocket.

Or you could get a really cheap phone (or someone else's cast off) to take skating with you.
