P rite on Target, boots are optional

uh no, you will need a full suit. and might be a bit cold because you old got a 4/3

[NJSwell]

Depends, like if you have new infiniti drylock 4/3, you will be toasty =P, if not, then forget it! and you will need boots... haha

[epidemicepic]

Somebody else had it right, boots are def optional.

the more fundamental questions though: Why would you go to DE for waves in the first place?

No worries mate. That'll get you out for a surf, just not a long time. Gloves boots hood, you're fine. Don't listen to the haters
