Hey guys!
I just want to ask, do you guys use earplugs? I have very sensitive ears that always get infected when I kayak and surf. Sometimes even the wind hurt my ears when I'm biking. I'm planning to get some custom made earplugs because I have weird angled canals too. Second thing I want to ask is, what do you think about these plugs on the video? They are made by Big Ear and I wonder if anyone here have already tried this brand. I'm also open to suggestions and recommendations. I just love outdoor activities and I really need to protect my ears so I'd really appreciate your response.
Thank you in advance!

I didn’t wear them for a couple of decades boating cold whitewater, and doctors ask if I kayak or surf. I think plugs are a great idea, but I can’t vouch for any product

Do they make butt plugs too? Asking for a friend

Sometimes I get the menstrual cramps real hard.

No experience with Big ear products. For a time I used the off the shelf ones, forget the brand. They worked fine for me but if you have unique ear holes you may need a custom plug.
I have had friends who had the ear canal surgery and you do not want that.

^^^ 15 years of kayaking in cold water have left me with one very fucked up ear canal.

Check out Doc's Proplugs. I had good success with them when I used to paddle in cold water a lot. I never got infections before (or after) using them, but I was definitely a fan.
east, apologies to your friend, I don't think they make butt plugs.

Yeah, Docs Proplugs are the ones I had.

I use earplugs. I agree you can get ear infections without them.

Not just ear infections, but surfer's ear.
I use them when paddling or surfing cold water. Lots of options out there; the drugstore "christmas-tree" looking ones worked fine for me. And they were cheap enough that I could leave 'em in my PFD, bags, etc., and not worry too much if I lost some.

Yes, I am using earplugs.
