What was the water like when ye were over lads? Was a 3mm enough or were there times when ye'd wished for the winter suit?

3mm is more than enough

wore a shortie a few times in December and managed OK!!

3mm summer suit is more than enough, lots of ppl in shorties and if you are not in for a long sess boardies are fine. The water temp was about the same as it was at christmas. All in all very comfortable.

Nice one, thanks lads longboardirl/smiley20.gif

Have a 3mm shortie so between that and the boardies I guess I'm covered

One other thing....are boots a necessity? Intend to be surfing a lot of reefs...

Are you off Saturday, TSU?

TSU- 02-21-2008
No, the 8th. Are you heading back over?

bof- 02-21-2008
No plans at the moment. Think Aer Lingus flights finish at the end of March so probably next autumn for me.

But then there's always the sunshine and longboardirl/rastaman2.gif to make up for it if we do laugh.gif

If it is small I would head straight for boilers for a look.

Bring your boots, i'm still suffering with my feet from last week. Dunno bout you but i slide the front of my feet and toes whilst popping. (probably wrong) ..... it takes chunks out

Bring Imodium/Imotilium/electrolites (all OTC), got a bad stomach bug and am still suffering!

As regards longboardirl/hippy.gif ...... Few dodgy characters selling hemp that looks the part..... Give it a good sniff!

I'll second this. I was alternating between shitting lava and brown fizz for half the week. Stick with bottled water all the time, even when brushing your teeth.

no more than myself, id say you were afraid to fart!

Always travel with immodium and laxatives, that way you have both ends covered! laugh.gif . I had forgotten about the water, first time I have gagged when brushing my teeth longboardirl/puke.gif .

As for boots, the reefs are generally pretty smooth. The worst was the walk back up the point at immousane at high tide which involved a bit of a climb and a walk back through the village. Was hard going on the feet. (but still worth it).

I really enjoyed surfing without any boots.
