Many of our crew SUP and prone.

I do not know how all of you hardy and brave souls handle those weather conditions. The windy spray off of those waves would is something to be hold.

BTW, great action shot photos showing where everyone was on their given waves. Sorry about your camera though.

Thanks for sharing all of your photos.

Impressive.  When I used to windsurf we would use the rule of 100. 

That was Air + Water temp.  Soft by your standards. 

PS: Do you still have the GoPro?  I realize it will not work on the SoloShot but it might be time to get the paddle mount fired back up.

Easy 30 reasons for me not to go out, I'm a Cali wuss.
It takes a quiver to do that.

Hi beasho.... yup, I still have the GoPro... but I am pathetic with a paddle mount. Rotator cuffs won't pick it up  ;D

Might be some creek crotch vids coming!....actually, now that I picture that, I may get my cuffs repaired.

Beasho,

Creek was "Kinda" close (Air + Water +Wind) at 96 on the "100 Rule"
So you are not THAT wussy using the 100 Rule

Holly crap!  I use the 100 rule to step down to a 3/2 full suit. (And sometimes I don't...)

I didn't know water that cold existed.

Hey, it's all up from there.

Here was a day that was 35 + 35 +35 but . . . . . . without a wetsuit.

I had to dig deep to find this in the archives 21 years ago when I was 6.  You New England'er, New Jersey'ians may know some of these characters.
