volleyball question

[Mickrobson]

Is it ok to use Fitbit charge during beach volleyball?
Would the sand or the ball hitting Fitbit affect its operation?

While it's possible to wear the tracker, the impact of the volleyball can damage it. Imagine the volleyball landing onto the tracker with a huge force, it can become broken.

Consider placing it somewhere safe and log the activity seperately.

I actually play league volleyball and wear it all the time. I just make sure the clasp is on my underside of wrist of that makes sense. Never had an issue. As to the sand issue I can see where that might be an issue but they are sealed pretty well. Personally I think I would wear mine for sand VB. I pretty much wear it for everything.

Well I've been playing indoor/outdoor voleyball with my Charge 2.  My issue has been with the rubber belts, just brake in the same point near the volleyball contact point in my arm.

Are you experiencing the same?
