Bring you thickest wetsuit, booties, gloves, hood, and anything else ya got if you plan on doing any kiting in the ocean/Pacific. The ocean experiences alot of upwelling in the summer months which draws cold water from the ocean floor to the surface. 50 something degrees is what your looking at, but the wave action is to die for.

Have fun!

Haven't been on anything more than a shorty since I got here.

but then I'm still in the corridor not the coast.

Is it possible to get too many days of 25, 30 + kts days in a row???
