Paddling Music
Your gonna get a bunch of people saying they like to listen to the water etc. Which I usually do. But if you like listening to music while you paddle listen to something thats gonna pump you up but also something that you like.
I like some stuff by The Expendables, Iron Maiden, Megadeth, AC/DC, and some other stuff. But thats just me.
To each their own.
I think theres a few threads on this also if you search around...

Try some Deep Purple Hiway star.....
Or for you upbeat types try Hella good by No Doubt......

Never did paddle with a headset, but if I did, it'd definetly be Ozzy, ACDC, Zep, Crue and the man, Jimi Hendrix.

That's pretty funny Kona J... but I was being serious. I like actually like that song I posted by the Eagles of Death Metal.
Truthfully, I'm a pretty big fan of "The Hoff" as well.

fuze, was worried you were going to come up with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Very cool.

Had it on a bunch of Maliko runs (a couple were pretty wild conditions), and I am definitely the limiting factor, not the canoe. Switched with a local paddler on one of the runs, they were pleasantly surprised, what with its rep as a flat water boat, said it ran as well as theirs.

Judes` got a ton of aloha too , Anyways , not to hijack the thread:
back to the paddling music .... ><(((">

glass,
im with you on Rage. only thing is that no boat better be close because oc-1 becomes a contact sport when listening to Rage. it pumps you up for sure.

Natalini, couldn't watch your vid, youtube tells me that it's not possible to broadcast this program in my country... ???
#33 Wed, 01/14/2009 - 7:40pm
That's strange.
Look up TV On the Radio's "Wolf Like Me" and see what pops up.

Kden, so what kind waterproof MP3 player you paddlers use for listen to all the music out in the ocean? Anybody use that Nu Technology Dolphin MP3, which the swimmers use for swim and listen under water when doing their pieces?
#45 Tue, 01/27/2009 - 11:05am
google h2oaudio... housing and earphones for ipods.
or,
Any cheap mp3 player connected to cheap speakers, volume to the max and put everything in a waterproof tupperware, then attach it to your canoe/ski/va'a and enjoy...

Mahalos Hiro, but I stay looking for something I can clip to my Kaenon's and just listen while going bridge to bridge. That's why I was wondering if anybody get experience using either the 1 gig or 2 gig waterproof Dolphin MP3's?
#47 Tue, 01/27/2009 - 2:56pm
The Kids live with them MP3 and head phone so I asked my 18 year old and she told me the ones that stay in you ear and has some base and cost 10$ and I got a 30$ MP3 and stick it under my cap and if they get wet its not so bad. when I tip I'm like a cat my head winds up above the water some how.so ya ,, ask the kids

Alright Mulus, I also when watch the video now, and the kids heard it in their bedroom while doing homework, so they came out for check out what I was listening too. They watch to the end and said it was "very interesting." I never ask them about MP3, because I no like get their hopes up that I going get them iPod Touch. That's all they like and been bugging me before Xmas. So I'm with you for cheap player because the Dolphin start around $89 USD.
