Here you go dude. All you need is about 10’of hose, a plastic “T” and a bunch of zip ties. Everyone does there’s different but I re-routed my pisser water up through the pole and across the bars to dump right on my knuckles. I’ve tried all different configurations and this way just seems to keep my whole hands warm. Use the zip ties to hold the hose exits right where you want them.

Good idea, I like that. Quick and easy to do. Thanks for the pics.

Lake Erie

Overnight: northwest winds 10 to 15 knots. Snow showers likely. The western basin is mostly ice covered.
Tuesday: northwest winds 10 to 15 knots. Cloudy with scattered snow showers.
Tuesday Night: northwest winds 10 to 15 knots. Cloudy with a chance of snow showers.
Wednesday: northwest winds 15 to 20 knots becoming west. Cloudy.
See lake erie open lakes forecast for Thursday through Saturday.
The water temperature off toledo is 32 degrees, off cleveland 34 degrees and off erie 33 degrees.


Lake Erie only gets up to around 70 so 60 in Jan sounds toasty to me!

I have 90 degree pissers positioned on each side of my blaster so that if I point them straight back they hit me right in the feet. I installed them with nylon bushings so you can change which way they point on the water with no tools (angle them out and they shoot overboard for warm weather). Works great!

I have thought about plumbing the line right into the dash so it floods the tray...but the pisser into the footholds sounds niiiiiiiiiiice :)

I thought once about just putting a 3/8 barb fitting in the front lower corner of my ski right off the head, and tie wrapping another tube to my leg and running that b right into my wet suit somewhere!
When I was plumbing this last ski I thought seriously about running a small line into each foothold. I figured when its cold enough out to use it, I'm wearing really thick dive boots and I wouldn't feel it anyway.

My free opinion (and it's worth what you pay for it). I ride in cold water occasionally. My feet don't get cold. I wear neoprene socks and shoes. They only time they get cold is when I float for a while.
My hands get far colder far quicker than anything else.

I rode a ski a few weekends ago that had a single pisser shooting out of the handpole onto the torso and it was way too hot. Air temps that day started at 48 and increased to 54. I was having no problems staying warm to begin with and found the water to be way too hot.

The idea sounds good but you need to figure a way to adjust the water temp a little. Personally, the colder the water, the harder I push myself to ride harder and stay warm while everybody else was playing nice to stay dry. I was in the water more than anybody and I was the warmest. :dunno:

I guess this is why so many people died when the Titanic went down. They all should of pushed themselves harder to swim to shore and stay warm.

Ummm....a little different scenario there i think. If there is any risk of getting stranded in cold water for any length of time I always wear my Slippery Sub-Zero Drysuit with a layer of micro fleece underneath. Hypothermia is no joke.

Your right, but riding in cold weather suks. I was at Daytona last year, that cold weather was no fun even if you pushed your self.

If anyone was there they would of seen people (including me) in the hot tub with full wetsuit warming up right after a ride. All hands above waterline so dont think about it!
