I know everyone rides with skullcandy icons but they blow. I just broke my 5 th pair and im fucking done with them. Does anyone kno any other over the head headphones that are good to ride with? Or also any hooks that may be good to ride with? Post some suggestions

The "seachbars" by the company "reposts" seem to be a solid choice

het the basic over the ear sony headphones. there loud as fuck and have a long durrable cord. there like 25 bucks. but after a few months of using normaly one side of the headphone stopps working. i dont think its a bad jack connection because i took mine appart and re soldered it to a new jack and it still has the issue but im too lazy to take the ear peice appart to figure it out.

I used to have speakers in the earpads of my helmet, but I've taken the out and I have to say I much prefer riding without music now.  The sound or the snow crushing under my skis is just much better than any music, atleast that's my current opinion!

I wear Sennheiser CX 400 II's for everything. Excellent quality in-ears which cost around £50(~$80) and they're definitely the best i've ever owned. They come with a variety of buds as well which is very useful.

If it's HEADphones you're looking for exclusively then I can't help you, don't even own any right now :(

depends on if you want earbuds/in ears or if you want over the ears.

i use klipsche s4 in ears. they stay in your ear, they sound like titties, and fit well (they come with 3 different rubber fittings).

my only con with them for skiing is the cable is a little short, so you might want to pick up an extension, which isnt that big of a con, because i have one with a volume adjust inline.

YES!

I've had these headphones for almost 3 years now, they're great. The warrantee is awesome too, I've broken like 3 pairs and they just give me a new pair each time.

Yeah I have these too they're really nice and they stay in your ear because they're thick. But not that cold, hard apple plastic

I used to get the ones that were free from the airline, just grab a handful and then burn through a pair every couple of days

Any cheap earbuds I can find when I wear a helmet, OT DJ slims without. Bluetooth is the way to go when skiing
