The waves dropped quite a bit today. In the knee high range with the occasional waist to chest high bomb set. lol. Here’s a few pics I snapped today.

Here are some snapshots I took today right before I paddled out. It was chest-overhead and offshore. Outside air temp with windchill was 6 degrees fahrenheit.

You know it’s cold when you see this!
Now keep in mind that is salt water that’s frozen on my fins! With the windchill it was at 6 degrees when I paddled out today. So not only was it the first time that I wore long underwear today…it was definitely the first time I’ve ever had ice in my fins. YIKES!

I snapped some photos today after a dawn patrol session. Outside temps never got above 35 but there were still plenty of warriors out to get theirs.

So I strapped on a hood, 5mm gloves, 6mm booties and a 5/4 O’neill Mutant for the first time today. The surf was pretty sloppy but I wanted to try and get used to the gear since the next couple days should be fun.
