Re: Wetsuit options

I'm going to use the suit for spearing. Spring / Summer / Fall. Not brave enough for winter.

How cold of water do you go in?
I don't really know. No one I know goes in the water, and I have a bit of a language barrier with the locals. but it is the Japan sea. Lots of snow in winter/ hot humid summers. The air temp outside now (fall) is around 16 degrees C. In Summer Around, up to 35 C.
Is there somekind of rough method of telling the water temp from the air temp?
Anyway I wont / don't want to go in the water after Nov. Seas too rough and too cold for me.

I was thinking A suit I could use all year except for winter. And I thought a hood might be too hot in summer, 3mm open cell, detachable hood. is what I thought might be best.
Thats why I want to know what others do.

Thanks pinggene.
