The rec.boats.paddle newsgroup recently had a similar thread. The question ultimately seemed to be the wisdom of latex ankle gaskets in the legs of drysuits versus adding latex "booties." Quite a number of people who had opted for the booties option (and in some cases retrofitted the booties) commented that they had tried both and the booties were a warmer option for consistently colder water. People who paddled in a wider range of temperatures seemed to prefer the ankle gaskets. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Oct 19 1998 - 09:41:30 PDT
