I've seen it.
Posted by: jcbikeski on Nov-29-12 2:55 PM (EST)

I've paddled around wearing a wetsuit feeling just fine, got out at a rest landing and became pretty cold when there is a wind. I don't get the same level of effect wearing a drysuit. I'm sure if you exercise enough (walking rather than resting) or have any form of wind break you won't notice it so much. And if your wetsuit is VERY warm then you may get cooler but still warm enough not to mind.
