Its finally gettin a little chilly. I had to literally clean cobwebs out of my shortie wetsuit. I probably would have been fine without one, but theres nothing wrong with being comfortable.

Yo I rode today here in Maryland and let me tell you.......it's time to get out the boots, gloves, and hood. I rode in a 2/3; but man were my hands cold. I couldn't land sh#t; but boy was it beautiful. No other boats, no wind, just me my bud, my skate, and the wake. On a calm day like today I was enjoying the flats. I'm riding all year long, it's all about getting layered up. You guys stay stoked and keep riding.

yea... its been soo nice here in texas.... man it was like abought70-80 degrees ever day till abought a week ago... we were going to tsr to ride last friday and it was a lil over 50 and i couldnt make myself get in the water... Its quit depressing.. i dont even feel like going out of my apartment.. i just want to sit inside and mope and watch wakeskating videos... i rode all year last year though and i have no idea how i did it! But my boat will be with me soon, and that will give me some incouragment to get in and ride... it will be well worth it...

Raven, riding with ahood is tight! i've never really needed one but it muffels the sound of the boat and it takes you to a whole new level

now i hear people sayin their water is cold but when ur water, at its warmest point, EVER, gets to like 65 then u can complain. im sayin like it was 105 degrees outside that day and the water was ok.
but hey, im just stoked to ride.

tahoe integ, I just noticed you were from Incline... I lived there for a short period of time, I miss the days of riding Mt. Rose... are the lift tickets there still super cheap?

And the water in Oregon only gets to be about 65 at its warmest point and only lasts maybe a month at that temp... the lakes can get up to about 70 but all of the lakes here are filled with stupid little rich kids that dont know how to drive and just screw up everyones session or there are like 8000 tubers... Eh, I HATE TUBERS!

All of the really nice lakes with warm "flat" water here are about a two hour drive.

man I hate florida warm water warm air man this place sucks...... Jk... I feel for you guys I had the chance to feel what everyone is talking about out west and north west. That shizzle is COLD I couldnt even imagine getting pulled at 20+ and being in that cold of water. I guess you just get better by not wanting to fall.

Evan where in oc do you live?

SleuCrew, i dont really go to mt rose much. i get discount cuz school tho so im not sure. u should come snowboard sometime with me. pm me if u need a place to stay also!

tahoe integ, Yeah I remember the discount, anyone from IHS got tickets for so cheap. I love Mt. Rose tough because there was never anyone there because it was so small... but if you know where to go that place could be so much fun.

I have actually been talking about a trip down there for a little while now, I will let you know how things pan out so we can all hook up and ride. God I miss the snow there!
