Grantsville opener

Postby Mike Egan » Fri Apr 04, 2008 9:35 pm

Cold air and water made for an interesting opener. I hate sailing with gloves. Overpower on the 6.6. Ken and John F decided it was to cold and stayed in the car. Thanks for the mental support guys. Had alot of fun on the water, would have been better without gloves. Does anyone have a pair of gloves that work without giving you arm pump? Utah lake tomorrow, anyone? Provided there is wind.

I've heard that playtex gloves can work quite well for windsurfing. Whit

Neoprene mittens with the palms cut out are the best.

Playtex gloves work well in moderate conditions, but for really cold days, Dakine mittens are hard to beat: http://www.isthmussailboards.com/prodin ... DK4400-600
