Sorry to post another query seeking your thoughts but wondering whether I should splash out some booties.
The water is getting around 14 degrees here and i'm still in a 3/2 wetsuit as I don't have a winter one. I'm generally doing ok for heat although the biggest thing that suffers are my feet and recently to the point of going completely numb before I reluctantly retreat to shore.
Last weekend I saw quite a few people wearing booties and thought maybe it was getting time to invest in some although have been putting it off due to some of my friends giving pretty mixed reviews.
I've found some nice Oneil 'heat' ninja 3mm ones that are on sale.
How awkward are they to wear and does it stuff up your surfing? Do you still 'feel' everything on the board? Any other downsides I should consider?
cheers!
