    4/3 boots, gloves, hood. Boots were the limiting factor for me, my feet went numb after about 2 hours. Guess ill step up to some 7mils

    I surfed around 1st St, and it actually wasn't that bad, probably a 6-7 rating for me with a 4/3, poly vest w/ hood, 3mm gloves and 5mm boots. I too haven't really had a meaningful session since November and it showed, I felt like a fata$$ out there, couple that with the fact that I was trying to break in a new suit so there was some stiffness.

    It was a fun sesh, thigh high but it turned out to be a beautiful day.

    Nice pics. Makes me wonder why there are no humans photoed in the water. ??? I figured it would be pretty crowded. Empty barrels. Empty lineup.

    haha no crowds this time of year! The current pretty well spread out the few who did brave the cold. I think I drifted about 12 blocks / hour

    Nice pics!
    Did you surf the new board? Just wondering cause the same dude had another one posted for cheap the next day. Looked like the only difference was it had some goofy looking pin stripes on it. The plain no logo one you got looked sweet.

    yeah man I surfed it and it was gravy! Zero complaints. I definitely got it critical on a few waves and it did what I wanted. Its crazy lite for a glassed poly board, must be XTR resin or something. No logos or signature was unsettling at first, but hey, it works!

    Highly recommend picking that other one up if its your dims.
