As for music, I always use my iPod, but use induction tech headphones that sit on your cheek bones so not covering your ears and leaves you free to have conversations with others and clearly hear what's going on around you still. Best buy I've made in years!!

Just put on a new post re my massive head and difficulty finding a helmet. I have just bought a Salomon Custom Air Ranger and it fits. I have spent years looking for something like this so if you are like me try one of these.

To condone that would mean that I would have no right to complain if something I sternly objected to became compulsary. Similar to the government wasting time passing legislation on smoking in cars with children, do I think thats a bad thing to do? Of course! Do I think we should allow continual encroachment by a stealthy state into our civil liberties? Hell no!
Anyway, wear a helmet....if YOU want to!

Completely agree Steve! It really scares me to see skiers and boarders with their earplugs in.Noun
