What&#8217;s not so great? Untangling a pair of wired headphones from ski goggles, a helmet or other headgear when the cute gal or guy next to you on the chairlift asks a question. Similarly, nobody likes taking off their gloves, unzipping pockets, and fumbling around with a phone on the mountain just to play or pause music.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, the combination of augmented hearing functionality and tap-touch control found in the truly wireless IQbuds2 MAX lead to the ultimate skiing and snowboarding earbuds.<\/p>\n<h3>Why IQbuds2 MAX are Your Best Option on the Slopes<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4309 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nuheara.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IQbuds-for-snowboarding.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" \/>Let&#8217;s start at the top of the mountain, just before descending a favorite ski run. A simple twist is all that&#8217;s needed to lock the totally wireless IQbuds2 MAX into each ear. Crank up your favorite song on the iPhone or Android device, and off you go.<\/p>\n<p>To eliminate background wind noise, &#8220;music&#8221; mode is the best option while actively skiing or snowboarding. To pause music at any point, a quick tap to the left earbud is all the effort that&#8217;s needed. Over several hours of skiing\/riding with the IQbuds2 MAX, the earbuds stay secure, even during unexpected wipeouts along the way.<\/p>\n<p>Waiting in the chairlift lines or riding on chairlifts is a good time to socialize with fellow skiers and snowboarders about plans for lunch or happy hour drinks at the base of the mountain. Using IQbuds, a simple tap touch to the right ear can switch &#8220;music&#8221; mode to another pre-set location setting (&#8220;home,&#8221; &#8220;office,&#8221; &#8220;street,&#8221; etc.). Easily converse with others without having to take out the earbuds, remove gloves, unzip pockets, or touch a phone, while still playing music in the background if desired.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4301\" style=\"width: 843px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4301\" class=\"wp-image-4301 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nuheara.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/chairlift-people.jpg\" alt=\"best earbuds for snowboarding on the chairlifts\" width=\"833\" height=\"459\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-4301\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">You won&#8217;t hear what these nice people are saying with traditional earbuds stuck in your ears&#8230;<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Battery life is not an issue with IQbuds2 MAX on the slopes either. When compared to other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nuheara.com\/wireless-earbuds-battery-life\/\">wireless earbud battery life<\/a> metrics, IQbuds stand up very well with up to 4-8 hours of run time on a single charge. The carrying\/charging case enables a quick re-charge of the earbuds in about the amount of time it takes to stop for lunch.<\/p>\n<h3>5 Features that Make IQbuds2 MAX the Best Earbuds for Snowboarding &amp; Skiing<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Comfortable, secure fit. With 8 different earbud tip sizes available, IQbuds2 MAX will fit, and stay securely in, almost any ear size.<\/li>\n<li>\u201cMusic\u201d setting is great while actively skiing or snowboarding to block wind noise and enjoy high fidelity audio.<\/li>\n<li>Other profile settings with hearing augmentation are great while in chairlift lines or on the chairlift. Have conversations while still listening to music in background.<\/li>\n<li>Tap touch controls allow easy back-and-forth switching from \u201cmusic\u201d to other profiles or to pause\/play music.<\/li>\n<li>IQbuds2 MAX look way cooler than a bulky pair of over-the-ear headphones.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Typical Challenges with Earbuds for Skiing and Snowboarding Listening to music while cruising down the mountain is great.
