Now this is something revolutionary in snorkeling technology. Utilizing groundbreaking bone conduction technology this set of 7 snorkels, headset, & battery operated transmitter allows effective surface-to-swimmer communication. Through the use of a wireless transmitter constructed of a splash resistant housing, a user can talk to or transmit music and other recordings to swimmers and snorkelers. iPod Ready!

Just imagine the multitude of applications for this

Water Trainers / Snorkeling instructors: You can now give instructions to your students while snorkeling.

Divemasters: You can now communicate with snorkelers around the dive boat. Or you can have a pipe in (or should is say pipe out?) music to the snorkelers. You can connect it to your ipod for broadcasting music!
