Shay’s shredding music

Last year I wrote about riding with music, but things have changed with how I listen to my music and my playlist.

I’m still using my Ipod Nano which over the past year has held up really well. Basically it still works, I haven’t lost it yet and I still have room for more songs. I just got 1,000 hits of the 80’s so I’ve been trying to go through those and select my favorites.

Instead of the Burton headphone beanie, which I’ve used once this year…I’m spending the majority of my time in the Skullcandy headphones over my beanie of choice which is either Coal or Bula. I’ve got a Bula stereohead beanie that I’ll start trying out on the mountain and reviewing as well.

I often listen to music when riding, especially in the halfpipe. When I’m on runs, I try to keep the volume so I can hear sounds around me and stay aware of my surroundings.

Here’s my current snowboarding playlist:
