Anyone breaking out the wetsuit yet? If so what millimeter.

I just wear a thin shorty, We met at 6:30 pm tonight.  I was just getting on the platform to put my ski on when Adam showed up.  I finished putting on my ski as he was pulling out.  Neutral, dropped in, clear, back in gear, rope tight, go.  one lap around lake.  Quick turn around for me pulling Adam and off the water at dusk.  Gotta love it.

Went to a full wetsuit last weekend and I think I am gonna need it this weekend here in Kansas.  Not shure what mm thickness it is but wow is it comfortable and warm.

Oct in Dallas is the best!  Not another sole on the lake at 5pm Oct 5th, Lake Lewisville.  No wetsuit needed, just yet.

66 degrees and completely calm.  Leaving the office now to ski!!!

Ok got a drysuit on Ebay that I wanted to test so I could leave feedback.  I generally run the boat before winterizing so it's warmed up.  Figured, kill two birds with one stone and go for one last ski.  36 degrees air temp.  I had my driver give me an easy pull hoping that my hair would not get wet.  It backfired as he pulled me too easily and I got all kinds of spray. 

Face was pretty cold.  I climbed onto the boat.  Adam said, you ok, you don't look good.  I said, Oh I'll be ok but as a friend, I want you to ski if you want to ski but as a friend I would not recommend it. 

He was smart enough not to go.

Boat is winterized, just needs a bit of spiffing up before tucking it in.

36 degrees...Man thats crazy.  Hope that the rest of you stayed dry in the suit.  Still mid to high 70's here in Dallas.  Hoping to get on the lake tomorrow and ski.  Might have to break out the wetsuit cause its been cold at night.
