Baller cougfan Posted January 26, 2021 Author Baller Share Posted January 26, 2021 I am about to give all you Florida people a lake Curlew panda courtesy of the Wednesday night crew. Complaining about water temp below 70 in the winter. Try skiing up here in the PNW this time of year with waster temps in the low 40’s to upper 30’s and air temps about the same. I bet u guys hardly ever wear a full wetsuit let alone even know what a drysuit is? Come on global warming??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Stathis Ventouris Posted January 26, 2021 Baller Share Posted January 26, 2021 6 sets so far in January (first time so many) weather pretty good here in Greece, the majority of the sets with the exception of the last 2 (after a severe drop in temperature and some snow in the surrounding hills and mountains) water was57ish and air 60-63. In the last two water 47-50 and air 59-60 not bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Fastguy888 Posted January 27, 2021 Baller Share Posted January 27, 2021 Beautiful Day for First Ski (Free Ski) of 2021 1/16/21 in San Dimas, CA Puddingstone Reservoir.

Baller pdolas Posted January 28, 2021 Baller Share Posted January 28, 2021 9 sets in 2021 already. The benefits of lockdowns in Europe. Air temp in the range of 36 and water temp around 46. Northerly wind on the head pass was not pleasant, but we can still ski in January on a 3/2 wetsuit, here in Greece and these conditions will not last more than a month. Bring on Summer 2021!

h2oskiphil Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Unfortunately, I had to put the boat into storage on New Year's Eve in northwest Illinois.....the 7 inches of snow on New Year's Day would have been tough on the cover, and the below-zero temps since then have turned the river into a skating rink. 13 days ago I skied on it, today I could walk across it (but won't....I never trust river ice).

Baller_ Rednucleus Posted January 16, 2022 Baller_ Share Posted January 16, 2022 Beautiful weather in the great PNW this weekend. After 3 tries we got our Hilltop New Years Day donut/coffee/ski in the books. Water has warmed up to 45 after being iced over two weeks ago; 12+ showed up for a great day of skiing & fellowship. Going out again tomorrow to work off the doughnuts!! I heard @AdamCord ran 39.5 off in his drysuit again - Animal!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ lpskier Posted January 16, 2022 Baller_ Share Posted January 16, 2022 Slalomed this morning and tricked this afternoon. Air low 70’s, water high 60’s here in Orlando. On the other hand, it was -22 on the top of Whiteface Mountain outside Lake Placid, NY when I skied there on Tuesday morning. @horton I had a total score of 72. 36 buoys in slalom and 36 get-ups in trick!

Baller lundberg Posted January 23, 2022 Baller Share Posted January 23, 2022 @Rednucleus ? there was plenty of neoprene. Mike has a drysuit, I've got a very nice 4/3mm sealed wetsuit, but my son wore my old shorty underneath my old full suit. Builds character!

Baller_ lpskier Posted January 25, 2022 Baller_ Share Posted January 25, 2022 52 air 59 water today in Orlando. I skied at 10. It’s now 3 and I’m still cold. Lpskier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Cnewbert Posted January 26, 2022 Baller Share Posted January 26, 2022 @lpskier People laugh when I say my wife and I wear O'Neil Fluid Neo drysuits in Florida winter, but the water does get cold this time of the year... even colder up here than in Orlando, and definitely too cold for us in any case. Without these drysuits we simply wouldn't ski in winter ever. With several overnights of near freezing or temps down into the mid 20s coming this weekend, the water will dip well into the lower 50s I'm sure. That will keep the riffraff off the lake while we'll be comfortably warm in our drysuits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller markn Posted January 29 Baller Share Posted January 29 It has been freaking cold and windy here in central Florida. I bought a dry suit for the cold, but it has been too windy for my course and Swiss is closed the month of January. Have not skied since mid-December. Warmer weather cannot come soon enough!

Baller skialex Posted January 29 Baller Share Posted January 29 Hope so too… cause I’m coming to central Florida for 2 weeks end of February.
