Are they waterproof?

Yes. AONIC Flow is IPX8 ocean-rated and fully submersible to 10m for 30 minutes. They’re built for saltwater, swimming, wipeouts, and real water sessions. After saltwater or chlorine use, we recommend rinsing with fresh water and drying before charging.

Will I lose them?

No. Every pair comes with an added safety leash, designed to keep your headphones attached during wipeouts, swims, and rough water sessions. So you can ride with confidence.

Do I need my phone?

No. That’s the whole point. AONIC Flow has built-in 32GB storage, so you can load your music directly onto the headphones and leave your phone safely on shore. No phone in your wetsuit. No risky waterproof pouch. No connection stress in the water.

Can I hear my surroundings?

Yes. AONIC Flow uses open-ear bone conduction, so your ear canals stay open. You can hear your music while still hearing waves, wind, riders, surfers, and people around you. It’s not noise-cancelling — it’s built for awareness.

How long does the battery last?

Up to 10 hours of playback, depending on volume and mode. Enough for long sessions, training days, beach days, travel, and most full-day water-sport use.

Does Bluetooth work underwater?

No. Bluetooth doesn’t work properly underwater. That’s why AONIC Flow stores your music directly on the headphones. No phone. No signal dropouts. Just music in the water.

The experience

Your session. Now with a soundtrack.

Load your music, leave your phone on shore and get in the water. This is what it feels like, in the words of people who ride with it.

It sounds better underwater

Bone conduction sends sound through your cheekbones, so the music keeps playing when your head goes under.

“the music sounds UNREAL underwater”Julius, 11 Jul 2026

You still hear the water

Your ears stay open. You hear the wind, the waves and the people around you while your music plays.

“I really enjoy the fact that I can still hear the water lapping against the board and the birds calling out in the early morning paddles.”Jeffery C., 8 Aug 2026

Crash, come up, still playing

A titanium arc behind your head, silicone ear hooks and a safety leash in every box.

“these headphones never even slipped off of my head (I had the leash on, so I wasn't worried)!”Christopher W., 31 Aug 2026

Sessions run longer

Riders tell us the same thing again and again: with music on, they stay out.

“I spent hours longer than I would have out there”Angela M., 4 Jun 2026

Fits under your helmet.

A titanium arc wraps behind your head and silicone ear hooks lock the fit. The adjustable rubber strap in the box tightens it down, and the safety leash is your backup.

“Being a beginner winger I still fall a decent amount and they stayed in place without any discomfort under my helmet.”Stuart G., 31 Aug 2026
AONIC Flow bone conduction headphones fitting under a helmet strap, close up on the ear

Bone conduction

Sound through your cheekbones. Ears wide open.

No earbuds and nothing in your ear canal. Flow sends sound through bone instead of air.

  1. 1

    It sits on your cheekbones

    Two small transducers rest just in front of your ears, held in place by a titanium arc behind your head. Nothing goes in your ear.

  2. 2

    Sound travels through bone

    They turn your music into vibrations that travel straight to your inner ear. That is why the music keeps playing when your head goes underwater.

  3. 3

    Your ears stay open

    Nothing blocks your ear canal, so you still hear the wind, the waves, boats and the people around you.

“I was skeptical about the quality, but I am impressed.”Sara S., 17 Jun 2026

How it works

Your music, on the headphones.

Bluetooth cannot travel through water. So your music lives on the headphones and goes wherever you go.

  1. AONIC Flow headphones plugged into a laptop with the magnetic cable to load music, no software needed
    1

    Plug into your computer or phone

    Use the magnetic cable with your computer. No computer? Add the USB-C adaptor from the box and plug into an iPhone 15 or newer, or a phone with a USB-C port. The headphones show up like a USB drive. No software required.

  2. 2

    Drag and drop your music

    Drop your music files straight onto the 32GB of built-in storage. Room for 10,000+ songs.

  3. AONIC Flow waterproof headphones loaded with music and ready for a phone-free session
    3

    Switch to MP3 mode and go

    Leave your phone on shore. MP3 mode plays your songs on shuffle only, so every session is different.

Downloading made easy (and free)

Use MusicFab or Spotidost to download your favorite songs directly onto your AONIC headphones.

On land, stream Spotify or Apple Music over Bluetooth 5.4 as normal. In the water, switch to MP3 mode.

The Founder

Built by a kitesurfer. For watersports athletes.

“Every session I'd have to choose between music and the ocean. I refused to accept that.”

Ben, Founder of AONIC

Ben has been kitesurfing for over a decade. He knows what it feels like to drop into a perfect run with the right song playing, and he knows the frustration of headphones that fall off on the first wipeout.

FAQ

Everything you need to know.

How do I load music onto them?

It's as easy as a USB drive. Plug the magnetic cable into your computer and drag-and-drop your music files directly onto the headphones. Any audio file works, and no software is required. No computer? Use the USB-C adaptor from the box with your phone. The 32GB of storage holds 10,000+ songs. In MP3 mode songs play on shuffle only: you can skip tracks, but you cannot pick a song or play an album in order.

I don't have a computer. Can I load music from my phone?

Yes. Plug the magnetic cable into the USB-C adaptor from the box and connect it to an iPhone 15 or newer, or a phone with a USB-C port. The headphones show up in your Files app like a USB drive, and you copy your music files across. The adaptor does not fit iPhones with a Lightning port, so those need a computer.

Can I stream Spotify or Apple Music in the water?

Because Bluetooth signals cannot transmit through water, you cannot stream Spotify while submerged. However, you can easily drag and drop your downloaded music files directly onto the headphones. For beach warm-ups or running on land, you can stream Spotify normally using the built-in Bluetooth 5.4.

How is AONIC Flow different from Shokz?

Both are open-ear bone conduction headphones with onboard storage. AONIC Flow is built for impact watersports: rated IPX8 to 10 metres for 30 minutes, with a safety leash and an adjustable strap in every box so they stay on through wipeouts. The full comparison is further up this page.

Who is behind AONIC?

AONIC was founded by Ben, a kitesurfer who wanted music on the water without losing another pair of headphones. Every order ships with tracking and is covered by the 30-Day Ocean Guarantee and a 2 Year Warranty. You can reach us at admin@aonicflow.com.

What's in the box?

AONIC Flow headphones, safety leash, adjustable rubber strap for a tight fit, magnetic charging cable, USB-C adaptor and user manual.

What if mine stop working? Is water damage covered?

Every pair is covered by a 2 Year Warranty, and that includes water damage as long as they were rinsed with fresh water after each use. Email admin@aonicflow.com with your order number and we will take it from there.

Can I hear the music over wind and water?

Flow 2.0 now has 25% boosted volume for the louder sessions. Many customers also tell us the sound gets better once their ears are underwater.

Will they fall off during a wipeout?

No. AONIC Flow uses a titanium open-ear arc that wraps behind your head, combined with silicone ear hooks. Every pair also ships with a safety leash for total peace of mind.

Are they actually waterproof? What about salt water?

Yes. AONIC Flow is rated IPX8, submersible to 10 metres for 30 minutes, and built for salt water. Going deeper than 10 metres is outside the rating. After your session, just rinse them with fresh water.

Can I use the buttons with wet hands or gloves?

Yes. You can skip tracks and change the volume with wet hands. Ben, our founder, uses them spearfishing in 3mm neoprene gloves.

When will my order ship?

In stock orders are dispatched within 1 to 2 business days and you get a tracking link by email as soon as they leave. Delivery is usually around 7 business days, depending on your country. Pre-order colours ship on the date shown under the colour picker. Depending on your country, customs duties or import taxes may apply. They are not included in the price and are paid by the customer.

Will they fit me? Can I wear them with sunglasses, a hood or a helmet?

Yes. They work with sunglasses, a hood or a helmet. The adjustable rubber strap in the box lets you tighten the fit, and customers tell us they stay in place under a helmet.

Can I use them in the pool?

Yes. They are rated IPX8 to 10 metres for 30 minutes and play from built-in storage underwater. Rinse them with fresh water after chlorine, the same as after salt water.

How does bone conduction work?

Transducers sit against your cheekbones and transmit sound directly to your inner ear. Your ears stay completely open, meaning you can hear the ocean, the wind, and your music all at once.

How long does the battery last?

Up to 10 hours of continuous playback. They fully recharge in 1.5 hours via the included magnetic cable.

Can I take calls with them?

Yes. Over Bluetooth you can take calls like any other headphones. Bluetooth does not work underwater, so calls are for above the water.

What sports are they designed for?

Kitesurfing, surfing, SUP, windsurfing, wakeboarding, open water swimming, running, and cycling.

What's your return policy?

We offer a 30-Day Ocean Guarantee. Take them out. Wipeout. If you don't love them, return them for a full refund, no questions asked.
