Anyone know of any types of headphones i could wear under my helmet while snowboarding?

Posted by admin on Oct 2, 2009

i want to listen to my music while i snowboard but i cant wear my skullcandy icons cause i have to wear a helmet. i also have a pair of in ear headphones. if anyone has any types of headphones i could hear under my helmet or any ways to wear my current headphones, give me an answer.

In- ears are great, but if your with friends, ditch em, because you cant hear your friends. If your with friends, don’t even wear headphones.
I have seen people wear icons under their helmets, but if it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work.
I wear smokin buds with my helmet, and they work great
Now keep in mind they are in ear, and i only wear them when im not with any friends.
Skullcandy headphones are made to use in extreme sports, so they are very durable, and they still work fine if they get in snow, or water.
