Hopefully the freeze is over and we start seeing more of the warm spring weather are having. I assume water temp is still pretty cold. ANyone know the temp out at Delta? And who has rode as of now? Has anyone rode without a dry suit? That would be crazy!

Aaron...

You know you want to take yours!

The water warmed up during that warm spell we had. It's been pretty cold this week.

The weather this weekend isn't looking great.

Aaron, you guys need a third for friday afternoon? I'm dying to get a ride in and I'm headed to Tahoe friday night. I'm burnt on work.... I think I may retire and just ride.

Dry suit.I always use a drysuit in cold conditions.Your energy last longer if your not fighting off the cold temp.Last trainning camp I went to in Florida this time of year.I wore a drysuit.others did not I skied circles around everybody.I have been skiing year round for 15 years and beleve me the cold water will zap your energy.

Thanks Aaron, appreciate that. Definitely helps.

Robert, To each his own! The drysuit is good when you're in the water but too hot while I'm riding. I prefer a good wetsuit.

Drysuits feel like more work to me. I would rather be cold when I first jump in, or not ride at all than use a drysuit.

J-Rod and Allen have been riding in the Delta so long they have a extra green glow around them that keeps them warm.

(mjmurphy53711) · (mjmurphy53711) **Join Date: Mar 2004** 02-23-2006, 8:33 PM

yes, they do have a certain glow to them dont they.

nobody ever claimed i was smart for trunking it, but if the water is approaching high fifties you are fine.

i should get a high quality wetsuit like jrod said, but..ive never worn one, do they restrict your motion?

Haven't been out yet. Hoping to go in the next couple of weeks.

Drysuits are a pain in the ars,Taking it off after your tired.

I look at it as extra exsersize

.I dont get overheated my suit is nice and cozy.I guess when I hit my 40s cold turned to pain.Dont like pain

I have a calander on my wall, and this year I am keeping track of my wakeboard days. So far in 2006 I have 12 days marked. I love to ride in a drysuit. The new murray bindings have made a HUGE difference by keeping my toes warm. so much mobility, and all the warmth of....spring?

(guido) · (guido) **Join Date: Jul 2002** 02-24-2006, 10:17 AM

12 days, huh.....

I think I may have 1 day.... What a poor showing on my behalf. Al, we gotta go ride soon. On a side note I'm doing pretty well checking off snowboard days this year. 2 more for this weekend.

(wakeviolater) · (wakeviolater) **Join Date: Sep 2004** 02-24-2006, 10:36 AM

(guido) · (guido) **Join Date: Jul 2002** 02-24-2006, 11:25 AM

(kybool) · (kybool) **Join Date: Aug 2004** 02-24-2006, 12:02 PM

I was out on the 11th at anderson, water was 58-60 air was nice, I was perfect in my 3/2 full suit, thanks for the advice on that one mike! The lake was empty to say the least.
