    Would you rather surf waist to occasional chest high on a 85 degree day with water in the upper 70's, or overhead but cold enough that you need gloves and a hood?

    I would prob take option A, but only if the chest swell had juice like Seldom was noting. I'd love either of those options right now honestly. I am thoroughly depressed on these lack of E/C swells.

    How thick would the gloves have to be?

    Wait... what am I thinking? A foot overhead, clean and hollow, any day, any temp.

    these waist high ones have some pop behind them, not total mushburgers

    I got to thinking about this today, lamenting how much I hate having to put the rubber back on when it gets cold

    I would pick waist to chest and warm any day unless it was waist to chest and a zoo in the water. Then I would take the big and cold.

    I've had lots of waist to chest days in the past couple months and obviously it's warm as it gets here, so for me, I want something a little more. Doesn't have to be much more than that, chest to head would work. If I have to put on my 3/2 to get some head high waves, i'm down. I kinda miss the refreshingly cooler temps at this point. It's so warm right now it's not exactly refreshing. The shower after in the parking lot is actually more refreshing at the moment.

    Neither. I will take 12-114 foot face hollow reef breaks with or without wetsuits.
    Waist high is for pussies, with or without wetsuits.......
    Anymore stoooopid questions???

    what kind of question is that lol,we don't get waves til we have to put the rubber on

    u have to give more details,like "where" is it chest high and hot.like a beach that has 40 guys in the water or an empty remote beach?

    il choose cold and epic over warm and crowded any day.the cold really isn't even a problem,wetsuites work!!

    all my other wetsuites,a 4/3 and a 3/2,i don't care for them how I care for my 6/5/4.il leave them in the trunk,hanging outside for a week,whatever,but the 6/5/4 I keep in a dresser all neatly folded and cleaned after every session.a little tear is all it takes to create problemas

    I've been wearing the same 3/2 for years. I always rinse off at the shower at the beach, then I rinse off again as I take a shower at home, I get as much water out of it as I can and then I hang it on a thick hanger to let it drip dry. It might be a little damp first thing in the morning, but it has kept it in good shape all these years by doing that. But i'm about to get a 2nd one so that I can rotate them. Last season I didn't care for a damp suite first thing in the morning.

    I have three winter suites because I hate putting on a cold suite. Truth be told I forgot my suite on my way to the beache when it was firing so I got another one. Second one I ordered online and they shipped 5/4 instead of a 4/3. So now I have three winter suites. And putting on dry suites is so amazing. Taking a break and getting food and then putting a dry suite on in February is also amazing.

    To answer your question, waist to chest is my fav anyway because I'm a loser.

    Lastly, don't ever post a would you rather post that doesn't involve grotesque sex acts.

    Would you rather get sodomized by a pack of wolves in front of your parents, or get nipped by a croc and lose a foot.

    If you chose sodomy, turn to page 72. If you chose crocs, turn to page 63.
