Shaped neoprene is great, just make sure that they are going to be comfortable when wearing for a long time. I have a pair of neoprenes that are fairly stiff (NRS I believe), and they are actually a bit too stiff for me, my fingers get cramped after extended use. A friend of mine has a pair that are shaped, but not as stiff and I find them much for comfortable. Also, don't forget the best part about shaped neo gloves - Mexican style wrestling grapples! On a last note. Could everyone *please* stop cross-posting to Wavelength and Paddlewise. Some of us really don't have time to delete duplicates all day long. I was out for a few days and came back to over 700 messages, primarily from Wavelength. -Patrick *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net ***************************************************************************Received on Thu Feb 05 1998 - 08:33:30 PST
