@ That is a bit complicated because it depends on more than the water temperature. Air temp, clouds or sun, wind strength and wave conditions are all factors that I consider when choosing a wetsuit. One extreme we can have in the spring is air temp of 70 F with sun but the water may be 35 F. Obviously the hooded 5/4 would be best if you end up in the water for an extended period but you would absolutely over heat while paddling. Today the water and air temps were in the low 40s F and I wore my 4/3. I was a little warm but conditions were big so it was safer with the 4/3 vs the 3/2. There is some balancing risk vs comfort while paddling, especially when working hard on a downwind.

When duty calls....
Very nice
Good thing the shrinking light window comes with windier days!
Our fall has been very summer like, not a lot of wind!
Indeed how lucky you are paddle man.....keep doing it.
We will!
I questioned in reply.. and you may not see it …
Did you try a dry suit ?
Why wetsuit is the choice ?
Cold or extremely cold .
Can you share what kind of wetsuit is that?
It’s an Excel Infinity 3/2. I also have an Infinity 4/3 and hooded 5/4 - great wetsuits!
@@ttrayn1000 Thank you! What are your water temp thresholds for each?
