Smartphones have become an integral part of the modern exercise routine, providing maps, GPS tracking, timers and music to keep people motivated and on track. Since mountain bikers and casual cruisers need easy, fast access to their smartphones and can’t risk dropping the expensive devices, Trident Case® has created the perfect solution - Kraken A.M.S. smartphone cases that physically lock into a custom bike rail mount by Arkon.
The Kraken A.M.S. Series is Trident’s most rugged line, independently tested to withstand rain, dust, drops onto concrete and intense vibrations, and meets the Military Standard MIL-STD-810F. By using a custom-designed, physically locked-in mount, bikers no longer have to keep their smartphones in their pockets or be burdened with uncomfortable armbands. With the Kraken case and Arkon bike rail mount they can be assured their devices are safe, secure and ready to access at a moment’s notice, right on their handlebars. This provides constant connection to maps, fitness tracking apps and music, and makes answering phone calls easy.
In addition to the bike rail mount, Trident Case® has partnered with Arkon mounts to create more than two dozen custom mounts for a variety of usage scenarios that lock into Trident’s Kraken A.M.S. Series cases for smartphones and tablets. When combined, the cases and mounts provide superior protection and secure placement options for any scenario from biking and boating to watching backseat movies in a car.
Trident-compatible Arkon mounts are specially designed to provide optimal mobile device viewing and placement in any outdoor setting. The mounts range from temporary to permanent, with a solution available for just about every surface type.
With solutions for the most popular smartphones and tablets from Apple, Blackberry, HTC, Motorola and Samsung, this partnership addresses the widest range of consumers possible. The compatible Arkon mounts include eight suction-based windshield and surface mounts, 10 vehicle mounts that connect to either cup holders, seat rails, air vents, headrests, lighter sockets or sun visors, two rail mounts that are perfect for bicycles, hand trucks or carts, four clamp mounts that are ideal removable solutions for desks and workstations, and three drill base mounts that provide a more permanent solution and are perfect for wall or under-cabinet mounting.

At Deer Point Elementary in Panama City, Florida, teacher William Weatherly has had great success using Apple® iPads in his autism classroom, but he quickly realized he needed top-notch cases to protect the devices from drops and spills. That’s why the school is using Trident Kraken A.M.S. iPad cases to protect their investment and ensure each student continues to have the best possible learning experience.
Weatherly’s class uses nine iPads – one for each student – for various lessons in both reading and mathematics. The tablet’s software also assists in developing communication skills in autistic students with speaking disabilities.
To ensure that the iPads survive, Weatherly required the most durable cases possible. “Our class relies heavily on iPads for daily instruction, because that’s the way the students learn best,” he said today. “Trident cases have been on the devices for a year, and have completely held up against drops, spills and temper tantrums.”
As teachers rely more and more on technology to conduct lessons, Trident Case is committed to providing the highest level of protection for tablets that will preserve tablets through plenty of wear-and-tear scenarios in all school environments, including K-12 and higher education.
“Trident cases really perform the way they say they do,” Weatherly said. “I have been recommending these cases to the administration because students can benefit from protected smart devices in schools. As far as technology goes these days, there are many apps that cater to schools. Books can already be pre-logged. There’s no more excuse of ‘I left it at home’.”
According to Weatherly, the curriculum utilizes software called Nearpod that enables teachers to control each individual device. This way, teachers can administer quizzes, questions and lessons simultaneously to students who each have their own tablet in the classroom.
When Weatherly’s students attend other classes within the school they take the iPads with them, which means that they physically leave the classroom. This requires even more protection from the cases.
“We are thrilled to see our Kraken A.M.S. cases being put to such good use in a challenging K12 classroom environment, but we are not surprised,” said Erin Luzzi, Vice President of Marketing at Trident Case. “The Kraken A.M.S. Series for smartphones and tablets is designed to stand up and perform optimally in the most punishing usage environments. More and more schools are adopting the Kraken A.M.S. Series as a sensible purchase that protects their investment in tablet technology.”
In a YouTube video created by Weatherly, students of the autism program demonstrate the type of damage a tablet may experience in a learning environment. “I would rate it a ten out of ten,” Zachary, a student, said in the video after dropping his iPad on the ground.
The Kraken A.M.S. Series cases are the strongest, most durable cases made by Trident. The case consists of a shock-absorbing silicone inner layer covered by a hardened polycarbonate outer-casing, with a built-in screen protector to provide maximum protection. The attachment port at the back of the case also features a mounting accessory that supports accessories such as media stands or clips. Kraken cases also meet U.S. military standards to protect mobile devices against rain, dust, drops and vibration.
Trident Case® offers six series of protective carrying solutions providing one, two, or three layers of protection: Kraken A.M.S. Series, Aegis Series, Cyclops Series, Perseus A.M.S. Series, Electra Series, and Apollo Series. All Trident cases use bio-enhanced, plastic based products that are recyclable, compostable, and degradable. Trident cases are manufactured in the USA.
