    Default Coldest and Warmest water temps you've ridden in?

    Okay, post up the coldest and warmest water temps you've ridden in. For the cold stuff, what kind of gear were you in?

    The coldest water I've been in so far behind the boat was 42 degrees. I was wearing a drysuit with fleece pants and top under it. I had gloves and a mountain hardware stocking hat on. I had these fleece/neoprene socks that were like 1mil. they didn't cut it. after that trip, I got booties and a neoprene cap.

    Warmest water was on the Trinity in Texas with 83 degree water temps.

    Although it might have been warmer water when I wakeboarded in the Ocean behind a Prostar 190 in Jamaica back in 2001. No idea on that one as I never even got IN the boat. Just did a shore start and finish. Really cool experience.

    I've trunked it in 58, 60 and 62. I don't go colder than that. I have a shorty but have never worn it. Warmest was probably in the 80's in Tampa in August.

    Coldest was 51, with a 3/2 wetsuit (no boots or gloves). Also rode last Spring in 57 degrees to start the season without a suit..that was pretty cold. Warmest was 86 IIRC, shallower lake in August. It's strange riding when the water is warmer than the Summer air!

    We regularly hit low 90s in a hot summer. Thinking 94 is highest I have seen on my temp gauge.

    Coldest was last year at 44 degrees. Had to try out my new drysuit and was impressed on how much better it keep me warm compared to wetsuit. Plus I had booties and gloves, thought about buying a head one too!

    Well, for goodness sake, post up a graphic with a thermometer showing the hi and low to give a proper visual.
