Finally, an action sports cam for me!

JVC last week announced the arrival of the new GC-XA1 Adixxion camcorder. The waterproof camera, weighing only a quarter pound, features built-in Wi-Fi, a 1.5-inch monitor and full HD recording.

I'm not sure how they determined it was "Quad Proof" but that's what it says!

I assume they tested it by dropping it on the floor many times. lol

Either that, or they dropped a quad on it.

When I first read "Quad Proof" I immediately thought of the term "childproof" such as medicine bottles and kitchen cabinet locks, but the layout of camera looks doable as long as it can be held or mounted securely. And yes, to be truly quad-proof it has to be able to withstand some tough treatment.
