I'm going skiing in January, and I have mild hyperacusis. The main things I struggle with are the sound of wind and the scraping noise of skis on very hard or icy snow.
I've tried earplugs, but occlusion makes things worse for me, and I end up feeling vibrations in my head much more strongly. A standard ski mask didn't help much either, since it didn't block the wind very well.
I'm not looking to ski in silence, just to take the edge off the wind and harsh high frequency sounds without increasing occlusion. If anyone here has found something that helped, such as specific masks, wind blockers, or other practical solutions, I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience.
