4/22/Rush 11m instinct

Saw a steady 17 to 20 something reading on the meters, so I headed out around 4:00 pm.
Rode on a gusty but for Rush a nice North wind. Was warm in the drysuit untill I crashed and found a one inch slit in the knee of my suit. With a good dose of super cold water and shrunken cahones (literally), I called it early and watched the 3 other kiters, Sal, Mike and Ryan tear it up! Ryan on a 16 while we rode 11m and 12m. I did get a good 45 min ride befor getting cold. Now does anyone know of some good patch material for a drysuit?
