saturday after christmas

Chris M. if there is wind and no ice, then you are going to wear my new boots my dry suit, my two hats gloves after I go out. You can even use one of my boards. If one of my boards explodes from hitting waves so fast and hard, well I have others. See ya there. I am probably going to have to look for another place to work after this. oh well it will be worth it. I want you to be there. I will bring a coleman stove and heat up water for keeping our feet warm. I did this for a couple other surfers and me before. It worked well. Ted

That seems to be a good suggestion.
I just read Doctor Donohue today about a Disease/Syndrome that causes blood to overly pull from the extremities in some individuals. Perhaps Chris has Raynoud's Disease. :-) One suggestion Donohue had was to rotate your arms like a windmill to create centifugal force to push blood toward the hands to keep them warmer.
Apparently one wouldn't want to do this while warming up inside and the pain increases due to increased blood circulation.

Ted, I didn't mention another warming technic - emptying your bladder into the dry suit. Very Soothing. Just don't tell Chris when you loan it to him until after his session.

kiteman...@yahoo.com is one of my many disposable addresses. For some reason, when I replied to this particular post from Kees', it changed the From: drop down text box from richs...@sbcglobal.net. Even now when I create a test reply from this one post from Kees' it wants to use this disposable address.
Each yahoo disposable address has a "Allow mail to be sent from this address" check box. So I unchecked it for kiteman...@yahoo.com address and several other addresses to prevent this from happening again.
Anyway, the Donohue post was from me.

We all surfed back and forth until we could nt squeeze our hands anymore. ( nobody wanted to wear those bulky diving gloves). After a few runs we would hide in the bathrooms and try to warm up. One guy was a medical student and he said that your hands hurt when you warm up because the warm blood was starting to flow in the constricted veins. So he said that if you hold your arms up in the air it would slow down the flow and it would not hurt as bad.

Hey I haven't committed to this yet! I do recall that I said I needed 40+ degrees. The way it looks now is low 30's.

| Wes' forcast of 20 degrees won't get me on the water. The only other guy who'd sail in those conditions would be the Iron Man. And he'd only be there if it were Carlyle, the lake half-frozen, and the wind gusting to 60 knots. And nobody is present. --- On Tue, 12/22/09, Anna McClellan Christy <ammc...@aol.com> wrote: |
