Anytime, anyplace, anywhere if you want to go head to head.

You in a steamer, me in a LS spring.

Guaranteed I will have ridden the first set wave.

Steve going all Loofy.

Glad Carroll isn't here to remind me of the time I put the steamer on back to front.

That did add some extra time in the carpark

Luckily we've all forgotten about it.

I actually learned to love it.

But there's no way that 2/2 is as warm as a 3/2.

Conductive and convective cooling laws still apply.

Yes, but if there's less water in the insulator there's less efficient conduction.
Tell me more about the Isurus.

Very soft, buttery Yamamoto rubber than somehow seems to have really good durability.

Really nice to surf in.

Pretty easy to get into and out of.

How many minutes?

Are wetsuits the only thing around here that aren't measured in Kilojoules ?

True, but I don't believe the spiel that it holds less water.

Also convection in wind chill.

There’s a euro brand called Annox that does a 4/3 ls springsuit. It’s the sort of insanity that I could see shearer getting on board with

Annox?

what does that mean?

It’s welsh for kook.

With the suggestive pose of the mannequins they use, shearer's gonna think they're flirting with him.

Curse of the pants man

...

what?

You know what Annox means?

It’s a mix of Angourie and Lennox, two waves where you need a saucy little 4/3 springy the most.
