H2O Audio Named Official Headphones Partner of New Canyon × DT Swiss All-Terrain Racing Team

February 13, 2026

Supporting a new generation of multi-discipline athletes racing beyond boundaries

SAN DIEGO (Feb. 13, 2026) /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – H2O Audio, a global leader in waterproof and high-performance sport headphones, has been named the official headphone supplier of the newly launched Canyon × DT Swiss All-Terrain Racing (ATR) team. Through the partnership, H2O Audio will equip the 13-rider roster – known as the Wildcards – with durable, performance-driven audio solutions designed to withstand the demands of gravel, ultra-endurance, cyclocross and marathon mountain bike racing.

The Canyon × DT Swiss All-Terrain Racing team represents a new discipline-free approach to off-road performance. Rather than focus on a single race format, the Wildcards span surfaces, distances, and conditions, adapting in real time as modern cycling evolves. H2O Audio will support that adaptability with secure-fit headphones engineered for sweat, weather exposure, and long hours in the saddle.

For more than 20 years, H2O Audio has developed waterproof and extreme audio solutions that empower athletes to train and compete in the most challenging environments. Built on innovation and resilience, the brand integrates music seamlessly into active lifestyles — from open water swims to mountain summits — ensuring athletes never lose access to the soundtrack that fuels performance.

“All-Terrain Racing is about pushing boundaries and refusing to be defined by one surface or one rulebook,” said Kristian Rauhala, CEO of H2O Audio. “That mindset reflects exactly who we are. We build audio solutions for athletes who move between disciplines, who train in unpredictable conditions, and who demand gear that performs without compromise. The Wildcards race everything. We design for everything.”

Riders will train and prepare with H2O Audio’s Tri 2 PRO Multi-Sport bone conduction headphones, featuring patented Playlist+ technology and engineered for secure, open-ear audio that maintains environmental awareness, as well as the RIPT Ultra over-ear performance headphones built for sweat-heavy indoor and strength sessions. Both are designed to endure the intensity and variability of all-terrain racing.

The team’s 2026 season begins at Santa Vall in Girona, the opening round of the UCI Gravel World Series, before building toward major gravel objectives including The Traka and Unbound. Riders will also compete in ultra-endurance races, cyclocross and marathon mountain bike events throughout the season.

Music plays a powerful role in endurance sport. It sharpens focus, sustains rhythm, and reinforces mental resilience during extended efforts. H2O Audio designs its products to deliver uninterrupted, high-quality sound in environments where traditional audio devices fail — below, above, and beyond the usual.

The partnership reflects H2O Audio’s continued expansion across endurance disciplines, supporting athletes who refuse to specialize within narrow limits and who expect their equipment to perform across varied terrain. As All-Terrain Racing tests the boundaries of modern cycling, H2O Audio remains committed to engineering audio solutions that endure just as long and push just as far.

Because for H2O Audio, Below, Above & Beyond is not simply a tagline — it is a promise.
