BLConaway Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Hi there! I'm considering attending, but will have to miss the potluck. I'm interested in the 2 or 2+, although I don't have a wet suit, so it may be best to stick closer to shore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterB Posted June 22, 2013 Author Share Posted June 22, 2013 Brenda,Whether going on the L2 or the L2+ paddle, some sort of immersion wear is required, meaning; some outfit that will reasonably protect you from the cold if you are in the water.. The ocean is still cold at this time of year!if you have any questions, you can call me this morning at 627-877-5824 Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLConaway Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 OK, guess I'll have to wait. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gcosloy Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Brenda,I think you waited to long for this disclosure. Had you posted this a week ago I'm sure there would have been loaners offered up. Many NSPN members are happy to share. I'm a medium male and use a large farmer John for comfort and a paddle jacket over after I go in the water. Its the evaporative cooling that usually gets you uncomfortable. If this shoe fits you're welcome to wear it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
