^ the date is what i missed! I never would have posted. I just got excited it was a Nor Cal post. But had i paid attention and seen the date i would have just been quiet.
i go to pacifica, and surf all year-round with a 4/3 and booties (summer) + hood (winter). Never tried gloves, though I wished I had them a couple of times.
Seriously? I go 5/4 oneill & patagooch R4 boots & gloves in dead feb and am toasty, yall really need a 5/4 out there???
