[turbo626]

i was out on christmas day last year. in lake michigan.

soooo no dj at daytona?

[MADMAT]

I am very irritated that more of our crew does not have Watcon drysuits.

I have a crappy dry but as soon as at least one more of you mofos buys a Watcon I will too.

It will give us 2 more months of riding for a measly 365+ shipping.:shrug:

No brainer compared to the thousands we all have in this chit.

Why!? You are gonna have 5k+++ in a ski but not 365 in your gear?

Come on man your holding our progress back. Get one so we can rip more big waves.

[djkorn1]

allright, I'm in next fall.

[oldskoo]

:-):-):-):-) that.....this extreamly cold water could damage my giant BALLZZZ hahahahaa.....i will however watch from a warm bar stool.... your just gonna have to ride in the river!!!

[ski4]

wet suites suck as it is
a full on dry suite sounds like a bummmmmmmmer

im in ski mode know
my knees got at least 2 more yrs of hard core bump runs in them

[MADMAT]

I can't say for sure yet but I would say getting in and out of a front zip Watcon would be easier that putting on and taking off all of this crap I currently have.

Hmmm This sounds strangely suspicious like an advertisement for Watcon! I think maybe Matt found himself a new job as a Watcon salesman!

B/C as I recall back in October when the Water Temp was a boiling 60+ deg and the Air Temp was a sweltering 40+. The waves 10-12ftrs and it was sunny out, I could not get you to come out in your wetsuit / drysuit combo. Even though us couch riders went out in nothing but 2/3 mil wetsuits.

So now your are telling me the only thing keeping you from riding in even colder weather is me and some guys spending some money at Watcon? hmmm

Well if that is what it takes to get you out on the water in the fall then I guess I will pony up the dough even though I don't need the suit b/c its gonna be worth the $365 just to give you shiot when you wuss out!

lol you know I gotta give ya chit man! I am in as always to ride whenever!

[blaster800]

There were surfers out in it last year / Christmas at Edgewaterpark !

[MADMAT]

No way man!! With a good dry suit and a crew with dry suits I see 2 more months of riding!!

You going out on couches does not count!! You could potentially ride a tank and never enter the water completely.

[MADMAT]

Yea i see the surfers out pretty late every year. But they just float on their boards in their heavy heavy duty dry suits and do nothing at all. I just don't get it. I saw 4 of them out 2 weeks ago in full gear in like maybe 4 footers. I never saw one of them stand up...ONCE. LAME!!!!!

It surely counts more than you sitting at home arm-chair quarterbacking or keyboard cowboying... When I am out riding it! And How many times do I have to tell you my XP is a love seat.

Soon all this couch talk will be a thing of the past! :brap:

[MADMAT]

I was just down there. It was really weird. The water is getting sucked in and out like 20 yards but 3-5's coming in. We had a hard time making it back heading in to 40MPH gusts. Yami had to rest like 3 times. LOL.

It would make a good new x-game: Dodgeball on Jetskis... :cheer2:

When I was living outside of Chicago... the waves on Lake Michigan at the Indiana Dunes would freeze... There would be 3-4 rollers frozen there most the winter...

I call: :bsflag:



That day was 67 degrees and flat as a pancake. Your right though, I would probably snow ski like I did today. :439:
