Thanks Peter and other folks for your advice on headgear. Peter pointed me to Ripcurl's site. I see their 'classic surf cap' , which looks good. Here in Oz it seems sensible to look for crossover gear between the surfing and the kayaking world, mainly because the research and development money definitely goes into surfing. Commercial seakayaking is a tiny enterprise here compared with the surfing companies. Which leads me to ask if anyone can point to wetsuit makers who have a range for seakayakers? The only two I know are Promotion and Whetstone. Cheers, Peter Rattenbury, Wollongong. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
