    maybe, but you sound like a bigger b!tch than my wife. I'm just very stoked about surfing.

    Anyway, how long do you guys plan on staying out? Its not like i'm going to make it a couple of sessions. Theres no way i'm putting on a damp cold wetsuit. I hope to stay out for at least a 3-4 hour session.

    Yeah 5/4/3 Flow 5mil mits 7 mil boots with hot socks.

    I was out New years day for about 3 hours. I felt fine as long as you keep moving and do some exercies to get you heart rate up and dress really warm prior to getting suited up one should have no problem staying out that long . But it really all according to ones tolerance to the cold I have a high one what can I say ;)
