too cold for springsuit this thursday monmouth cty nj?

waters warm, air has been pretty cold esp if the winds blowin west. I'd rock a 3'2 full if I were you, your gona wana stay in all day but thats coming from someone whos 142 pounds so I'm sure you'll be fine in a spring

 

You mind as well get used to more rubber. Also a 3/2 is the tits! I sometimes make sweet love in a 3/2...

 

Springsuit all the way....

 

waters still warm...mid 60s... 3/2s good, airs coolin off.

 

I'm all for wearing less rubber...but the air temp and wind will go right through you this time of year.

 

I've been wearing my 3/2 the past two or three weeks...I'm usually in the water around 7AM and out before 10AM, right when the air starts to warm up. The water is definitely cooling off though.

 

lol call me what you will(kook) but on sat. morning it was super windy and freezing out so for my dp sesion i had my 3/2 and even put my hood on hahaha

 

i trunked monday morning. the whole weekend too. everyone out was laughing at me. i usually trunk up to mid october most years, but the last couple years i remember a lot of 75+ degree sunny days well into october with water ocean temperatures being in the mid to upper 60s still. last weekend i was out in trunks all weekend, and no one could believe it. the water was warm, but air was in the 60s, and it wasn't sunny out. i think i'll be putting on the 3/2 though from now on. mild to cool air temperatures, and cloudy i think my 3/2 is good for now. probably last me into november maybe december 1st if i'm lucky.

 

jesus eatswell, there no way i could even fathom that. i was cold during the upwelling of irene. i think we are seeing the last of the warm days though

 

i figure if i can take a dip in 65 degree water, and most others can too then why not surf in trunks? my general rule for board shorts is 65 degree water or higher. that's only if the air temperature is that or higher, and sunny when it's still in the 60s. i broke my own rule this weekend, and the other morning. couldn't have been much higher than 64 degree air temperature, and overcast cloudy skies. i remember when i lived in cape may in october 08 i think it was, everybody was surfing in trunks. that was probably this week back in 08. no earlier than mid october. highs were upper 70s, and breaking 80 that whole week. i've been to southern california in august. just this past summer i got in the water there, and it's a big difference from the mid atlantic. a lot cooler. people were able to swim in that! i was thinking to myself ''man back home most people wouldn't even go further than ankle deep in this water to swim with this temperature''.

i think the warm days are numbered though. i'm really starting to get f'ing pissed at it being 60 degrees out, and the temperature in my house is 82 degrees. i feel like i'm gonna die right now, and sweating, and real gross. i love the warm weather, but damn why the hell should i have to put my ac on if the temperature outside is 57 degrees?
