Spring Suit weather?

(malibuboarder75)

The weather here has been about 75 during the day and 55 at night for the last week. The water temp is around 55-60. Do you think it is okay to wakeboard in a spring suit, or should I use a wetsuit. I have 2 spring suits and 1 full wetsuit, but we don't feel like taking it off when we are done so each person will have his own suit. I guess two of us will freeze our nootz off.

Thursday I went out to San Vincente and just hopped in in my boardshorts and bikini top- no prob. It felt nice- the water is warming up quickly--I think if you can hand le it definately go for the spring suit. Plus, a spring suit isn't as confining as full or dry. :-)

75/60.... my question would be between no suit or a spring suit. I would never consider a full suit in that situation.

Alan- a freakin' DRYSUIT? What the hell?????

You guys are soft.... We rode Don Pedro this weekend: 75-80 on saturday with 60 degree water. All of us wore long sleeve rash guards. J-Rod trunked it yesterday with no top. It was 60 degree air and water.

Go ride... A long wetsuit would be plenty, a shorty would suffice.

The water was over 60 Thurs at San V. I was ashamed that I was in a full suit. And for you guys in the dry suits - ah, never mind! JK

I will be in a shorty this week, probably board shorts after that. It gets much warmer, I will be goin' commando!

JK - I will save all of you that misery. I remember thew pics of my torn ab last year turned some stomachs!
