Just a few shots my wife snapped of some of the crew at Rufus today... Matt, Tracy, and I missed the camera, but not the session. Nice while it lasted!

5 mm it is. Its the reflex 1.0. I borrowed one of these on Lake Michigan in DECEMBER and shocked at how warm it was. I did a bunch of research before buying it and was looking at this one and the patagonia suit and the rip curl flash bomb. I liked the hotline the best and after a long discussion with the lovely saleswoman at cleanline surfshop in seaside she admitted to me that on the absolute coldest days, she grabs a hotline. I was sold. So far a I love it. There are more flexible suits out there but I wanted warm and I'll be using it kiting more than surfing.

thanks for the info Sauve. I already have a decent 5mm from a name brand (won;t name to avoid product vs product Smile ) so i might do some research to see what makes the hotline warmer. I will check out their website..

thanks again

Who says kiting is seasonal? Lol

Bill got at least one session a month lasts year and he's rocking a wetsuit.

February makes my 12 th month in a row however I upgraded to a drysuit several months ago.
