Newp. Don't think I've heard of anyone ever hydrolocking. U would have to bed in like 2 feet of standing water to do that. Injens have been noted to sputter here and there when left sitting in the rain for a long time, but no problems with stillens

Hell, I've never seen hydrolock on AEM's or Injens and they sit lower.
