I'm going to Costa Rica in June and will be doing some white water rafting....should be fun!. Was wondering if anyone has had any experience with water sports and if so, how you protected your meter?. I will of course be taking back ups of everything (plus hypo treatments!) but obviously would like to start by protecting my existing meter !.

Any advice / tips greatly appreciated!.
 
Any dry bag will do. I bought a medium sized one and just threw everything in that. Keeps it dry, will float if it goes in the water, has a clip to clip it onto anything secure. Jobs a gooden 🙂
 
I used to spend 3 days a week in the north sea Windsurfing, Jetski & Catamaran. Just tested before going out & when back in. One day did over 100mile on a stand up ski. Have a good Holi & enjoy.🙂
