Outride is what looks like an excellent bit of kit from outdoor retailer mophie, which is basically an action sports camera that enables you to record and share your tricks, tracks, rides and epic moments on land and on water, all via your iPhone 4 or 4S. The outride hardware is waterproof and impact-resistant, and comes complete with various custom mounts for surf, snow, dirt or concrete shots. By using the existing features of your iPhone, it eliminates the need for dedicated cameras or video cameras. An accompanying app will also soon be available so that you can edit and share your work as well.

"With the ever-growing action sports market, and our success in developing ruggedized products for those rough-and-tough tech users, we felt we were ready to design and develop a product that would take the iPhone and its camera capabilities to its limits," said Ross Howe, vice president of marketing at mophie. "While the action sports community has a lot of camera and video options to choose from, they weren't able to share their moments with the community in real time. OUTRIDE gives the action sports community these capabilities in a durable, compact, quality and cost-efficient way."

Outride will be available in mid-September, with bundles ranging from $129.95 to $149.95, from mophie.com. Here are some of outride’s key features courtesy of mophie:

Modular quick-release mounting system allows recording at any angle and attachment to any surface on a variety of sports equipment
