what are the best headphones or earplugs for snowboarding, something that sounds good but stays on your head/in your ears and are fairly sturdy

For me its the built in earphones on my Bern helmet. They keep my ears warm, have decent sound quality, and tune most things on the mountain out except when someone gets really close and almost hits you. I guess that would be my favorite part, if I can hear someone through the music, that means there is about to be a crash. On soft days or low mountain days, just some good ole Sony Studio Pro headphones, $40 at music stores, staples, etc. Perfect sound quality, stays on my head nicely, and keeps my ears warm.

Frosty I'm going to have to check out those wireless headphones! I was looking for something like that just the other day for backcountry work. Perfect! And if you need a new helmet, I recommend the Bern ones. They're pretty comfortable, and the way the headphone cord connects to the helmet is through the back of the neck, just side of center. Almost lines up perfectly with the Burton media pocket design. Not so well with Ride's though, but still comfortable.

i didn't know that this is counted in snowboarding. oh i feel so noob
