Do you listen to music while riding?

Hi guys,

I was wondering wether you like to listen to music while riding, and if yes, what kind?

As for me, my best investment of the year (except for my skis!) was the 130€ spent on helmet speakers. It changes everything!! And I love to listen to dancehall. You?

Music is needed for me! Especially when I ride. I listen to Biggie, tunes from the hood internet and a lot of songs from different edits.

Thread creator- are you fucking kidding me?  You spent 130 Euros on in helmet speakers.  What a waste, that's a shitload of money.  That is a horrible investment.

Dude, I wanted that song ever since I first heard it.  Do you have a DL Link?  I couldn't find one after a few searches.

lol I needed a new helmet. The model I wanted without speakers was 100€, with speakers 130€. So I paid  30€ for the speakers and I'm really glad I did! The sound is awesome and while freeskiing, earphones are not practical at all!

you need to expand your musical selection. I can link almost every one of those songs back to newschoolers in some way.

but then again I bet your one of those hipster girls that says she doesnt like mainstream because its just people listening to what they are told..

Or on the few pow days I do get, I like listening to indie pretty quiet while I'm in the trees. Its amazing, especially if everything else is silent.

If skiing by myself then yes, usually reggae and just chill songs cause im already pumped as much as possible just to be skiing and on the mountain i need music to calm me down, on the lifts i turn it down so i can talk to strangers.

but if skiing with friends then no usually so we can talk easily and just joke around.
