hey ns, i was just wondering what skullcandy headphones u like to use while skiing. right now i have lowriders(no good i want icons) and i have ink'd which broke cuz my ipod was at 3/4 at the volume. and i was wondering if the icons fit well underneath helmets.. and if u have any sick skullcandy's post em up. and also what do u think about the new icon 2 and icon soft. personally i like the soft and not so much the icon 2. which one do u like

i have icon 2s (from level 1 so under $20) and like em. they probably won't fit under a helmet though. they stay in place and they work with smart phones like the iphone or droids(i have the droid eris) and i can make/take calls on the lift because they have a mic on the wire which is nice. the nylon wrapped cord stays more flexible in the cold which is an added bonus.

i have icon's. they dont fit under a helmet unless youre okay with being uncomfortable. but other than that i love them and they sound great. i have the pbp edition cause they were super cheap.

The Icon line and some buds are all you need to love life. The larger ones aren't too shabby for chillin' either.

It's a store in Utah, it's for sure a chain but I'm not sure what states have it. It stands for "for your entertainment".

i just got some icon 2s for christmas and i like them a lot, i got the black ones with the white band on the top. they fit really well, and they havent fallen off yet. skullcandy also has a sick warranty and if u break the product at all they will give you 50% off anything on their online store to replace your old headphones. good security if you ask me. the icon 2s are really stretchy too so there impossible to snap on the top.

my brother is "in the industry" and got me and my brother a pair of Agents for free.
they are cool as far as free headphones go, they play extremely loud and if you turn them outwards, everyone can hear them like they are just speakers. i dont really like the square shape though.

i compared them to my V-moda ear buds. the quality of the skullcandies did not come close to the v-modas, so the skullcandies will be my backups

level 1 icons. and even though the shipping price is a bitch ( i think it was 8 bucks or close to it), they are still cheaper than through skullcandy.
