What are good headphones for snowboarding/skiing?

Skullcandy is one of the more popular brands for headphones, they make a ton of different styles. I have a pair of skullcandy audio earpads for my helmet and love em… well except for the whole wire snapping.. but they sent me a new pair free so not that big a deal .

@jonathan some people actually care about the sound quality

Skullcandy Headphones for snowboarding?

Okay,
So which skullcandy headphones should i buy for snowboarding?

I have had a pair of Low riders, a pair of Hesh’s, and a pair of G.I.s. Out of those three, I like the Hesh’s the best because they stay on your head really well, the inline volume control is great so you don’t have to take your iPod out of your pocket while you ride, and the extension cord helps a lot in case you sit on the cord or something, it doesn’t get ripped out of your MP3 player, it just disconnects halfway up the cord.

I liked the G.I.s as well, but the part that connects the earpiece to the band is very fragile, and I broke it relatively easily.

It is my opinion that Low Riders are not very good for riding, simply because the first time I rode with them, I fell, and snapped the cord and the headband.

Technology; Now Helping Us To Stay Fit And Healthy

Sports might be about getting fit, but that doesn’t mean it’s not without its gadgets. Whether you’re running, cycling, snowboarding or swimming, gadgets can help you get the most out of training. Here are a couple of great gadgets that will maximise your training, helping you on the road to victory.

Nike+ SportBand.

The Nike+ SportBand allows runners to get real-time performance feedback during a run giving them information on their distance, pace, time and calories burned, in addition to gaining access to all of the features and tools on the nikeplus website.

The Nike+ SportBand watch face is a detachable link that captures all the run data from a sensor located in the runner’s Nike+ ready footwear and once a run is completed, the link plugs into a computer like a USB drive, so data can be tracked. The system also offers Nike+ Coach so beginners and intermediate runners can access existing programmes to train for a 5k, 10k, half-marathon or full marathon.

Orange e-diet.

Launching later in the year, the Orange e-diet is a text service in the UK that will allow you to monitor calories in the food you eat on the go. Users wanting to monitor what they eat will be able to text orange and get the calorie count back giving them the information of whether its good or bad for them before they buy.

Samsung miCoach fitness mobile phone.

We’ve had camera-focused phones, we’ve had music-focused phones, and now Samsung is to launch a fitness-focused phone. Called the miCoach (F110), the quad-band slider handset will offer a dedicated fitness button that once connected to a heart rate monitor and a step counter will give you information about your heart beat, distance covered and time running when out on a run.

But rather than just record your information to download to a computer later, the phone, through the headphones, will give you running information on the fly by simply tapping the screen. Measuring your heartbeat, the phone will also tell you if you are running too fast or too slow, based on the fitness programme you have selected. The miCoach will offer over 220 training programmes via a fitness website ranging from plans focused towards you loosing weight or running a marathon and measure your running speed within four zones to best suit your training based on an initial assessment run.

Wii Fit.

The computer game from Nintendo means you can play computer games and get fit at the same time. The Wii Fit comes bundled with the Wii Balance Board. It senses weight and shift in balance in any direction and therefore by standing on the Wii Balance Board during activities allows players to follow along to movements ensuring they have full control of the on-screen activities.

There are four training categories including Aerobic Exercises, Muscle Workouts, Yoga and Balance Games that Nintendo claim will help you (and your friends/family) to develop bodily balance control ability, burn fat in the body, help tone and condition muscles, as well as help increase aerobic stamina. Within those categories there are over 40 different activities such as Hula Hoop, Ski Jump, Press-up Challenge, Rhythm Boxing, Rowing Squat, Lunge and classic Yoga poses such as Half Moon, Tree and Crocodile Twist.

H20 Audio headphones.

The H20 Audio headphones aren’t any old headphones, but waterproof headphones that let you listen to your iPod to a depth of up to 10ft, or 3m, thanks to waterproof housing and waterproof speakers. Robust enough for ‘active watersports’ thanks to a behind-the-neck design, silicone earplugs, and a durable neckwrap to keep them in place they cost around 26.99 and means you’ll be singing underwater as you do length after length.

In the past technology has been accused of making us lazier. Clearly with the development of technologies such as these the move is towards using equipment to improve our fitness.
