I suspect the fact that I need to ask automaticly procludes me from doing so, but how does one 'rock' an article of clothing as compared to simply wearing it

Ok this morning was cold in the surf. I even tried putting my thermals (non rashie) under my 3/2 west wetsuit but I still nearly died.

Time to upgrade.

South america here I come

Kited estuary in that north east yesterday morning have just got feeling back in my toes and feet. and before you say toughen up yeh I agree that's part of the mission. Hungry jacks and a warm shower followed by watching the eagles thump adelaide as my wife cooked up a mean roast then a cracking game sat night. Great day. Bro has footy today not brave enough to tackle the cold water on my own got noone to share the cold. Again part of the mission. Bells beach in four weeks omg!!!!

Been out and about and love the fleece rashie. Have used it under springy, 3/2 and the cool thing is, the rashie is always dry after each session! You need a rubber hat though...still the best of all my clothes.

The water is not really even that cold IMO.

saturday was cold enough (water temp has dropped)
I last about 1 and half hours if the surf is inconsistent. then the body starts to lock up a bit, fingers and toes go numb and start shivering. problem is my wetsuits never fits properly.
