Hey guys just a quick question,getting a little Cooler in brissy, for kiteing would a full piece 3mm suit be to restrictive and a 3/2 mm be more versatile ,cheers
Bigtone, you must live on the far south coast, cause around the northern part of the south coast a 3/2 is all I have ever needed.
Would happily swap with this Victorian weather!
5/4 wetty with a vest and hood underneath + booties + gloves an even then only an hour in the water and 7 hours beside the heater at home!

I could have used my nipples to scratch paint from the car last sunday!!!!! I left my "under wetsuit" at home.
Cheers guys,ended up trying 3/2 and 3mm ended up with the3/2 long,think all3would have been overkill for brissy.
well all got to do now is wait for some wind,thanks
must say it sounds dam cold down south,

Really? 4/3 only down here, with booties but no glooves or hoodie. Works fine unless you are in a river mouth.
My 3/2 needs updating. Sunday was a bit cold. Had to use a hot water bottle and a plunger to put humpty back together again. 3/2 all I need in Sydney even for south coast trips, but cause I use it a fair bit I update every 2 seasons.
Respect to all you snowmen down there , to still be keen to kite the cold weather . Balmy 25 degrees up in FNQ , and that's cold for up here ! ![]()

I know your still learning so buy me a ticket and pay my accom and I'll have you kiting perfectly in time for me to get back to Vic in summer!
While I appreciate your advice Daniel that's not gonna happen . If you do make your own way up here though I 'd be happy to show you around and find you a cheap place to stay
Personally I think winter is the best time for water sports up here cause the uv rays drop to tolerable levels the wind is regular and there are no bloody stingers around .
