I didn't know people went surfing in weather like that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenmom5 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 keep in mind - at those air temps - the water is warmer than the air. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luuknam Posted December 25, 2017 Author Share Posted December 25, 2017 It's getting out of the water that is so cold!! :D This. Though, in NL, some people do a New Year's dive into the ocean, so, I guess I shouldn't be that surprised that people go surfing in really cold weather. Though it usually isn't *that* cold at the New Year's dive (1F is about as cold as it ever gets in NL, so usually the weather at the New Year's dive is closer to 32-ish, but it really varies year-to-year... also, wind chill or lack thereof makes a big difference). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
