Winter waking

[rhodester]

anyone out there still able to ride other than orlando? I went out today prolly for the last time of the year. The water was like 62 degrees plus the wind, i think im gonna be sick

[BillyOLDS]

im in orlando and have been sick from the cold front that is here now it sucks, especially since for the first time ive ever seen my lake was glass allday unlike the ussuall 11am blowout

[rhodester]

i think that cool front ur talkin about hit us like 2 days b4 y'all and yes it sucks

[parky]

im still riding and its gunna be 57 this weekand at best... so thats pritty cold... in december i wont be riding but after new year im back out on the water

[BillyOLDS]

rhodester, yeah it just all of a sudden went to full suit riding and hoodies on the boat

[gregg]

ur still ridin in canadia EvanPark? it hasnt been the high50's in michigan in for 3 weeks

[parky]

gregg, I live on the West Coast... and mainly I live near the ocean so it doesn't get very cold where i live... there are some places where lakes freeze over in BC but im like 6 hours from that

[mike.h]

well i would go out on the lake but my dad complains its too cold, i guess 68 degrees is too cold for him

[BillyOLDS]

last thanksgiving me and my friend made a giant box that weighed so much we had to rent a car hauler from u-haul to get it to the water. it was 16 ft long and 4ft wide and on one side it had a 2.5ft high rail and the box was planned to sit a foot out of the water. well it was so heavy we couldmt get it to float right and it was so cold that we couldnt ollie on it. we left it there and it beached itself and is still in tampa bay covered in barnicles. we worked on that box the whole week and spent so much money on it and the weather just made us not car eit was horrible, oh and btw the water was mid60s and the windchill was 50s

[RUSSIAN]

I'm still riding and will continue all year

[rhodester]

i guess i might spring for a wet suit but this cold weather might be nice because we need to make some improvements on our boat and i always have duck hunting in the cold

[RUSSIAN]

the best water is found in the winter around here. It's damn crowded almost everywhere in the summer

[wakesk8r9610]

RUSSIAN, defintely but the price is how cold it is. i went in febuary to shasta last year. 27 degrees while snowing. but i didnt drive up there 4 nothin so i of course i went in the water.

[nick]

I don't even have a wetsuit

[PIRATE]

Im still riding, water is about 68 and the weather is about 70 degrees still were pretty lucky, i'll have to wear a drysuit from dec till end of feb but thats allright by me, when i say i have to wear a dry suit thats cause the water is about 64 degrees, im spoiled. but in the summer it get's to 128 you cant get cool

[chriscut]

I ride all year. We just brought the dry suits out.

[-=AlexXx=-]

i live south of orlando, and ima try to skate all winter.

[Raven]

I went riding yesterday, and we're going tomorrow. I'm wearing a 2/3 and it's not bad here in Maryland. This sport is too much fun to let a little cold weather hold you back. Any other eastern shore riders out there?

[foammesh]

This is when I like to ride more, all the kooktoobers go home, and we get the lake back. The wind from the cold front sucked though, the lake was blown all weekend.

The chop today was surfable
