Cheap comfy earbuds. Whether they get wet or the wires pull out of the ear buds i always seem to break em. No reason to spend a bunch of money

really. just get a bluetooth hat. there are different brands of them. heres one that you can find for $30. http://bluetoothbeanies.com/ (I have a different brand) I wear mine all the time, walking the dog, shoveling sidewalks, sleeping.

They are beyond convenient and you will not regret it. #guaranteed

I've always wanted one of those but I don't wear a beanie under my helmet usually just a thin balaclava!

I use a pair of blue Sony headphones. They're low profile so they fit nicely underneath my helmet. Radio shack sells them, I know. They're $30 I think.

Use earbuds under your helmet/balaclava/whatever then if you fall you won't break your headphones.

I'm picking up a new liner with speakers for my helmet soon. Ear buds hurt my ears with my helmet on. Does anybody have any experience with built in speakers? If so how's the sound? Can you still hear other skiers and various things?

I use whatever I have because lets be honest here, all headphones get annoying while skiing.

I am a design student in Boston working on my senior thesis project. My focus is a lifestyle headphone geared towards active people. I'm currently in the research phase and would really appreciate some responses to a survey I have put together. Its only 10 questions so it should not take long.

Thanks for the help!
