new gear

great day out Saturday..aberdovy to barmouth wind from the east gusting to 25mph later in the day..tried out my gear brought for the winter

gecko helmets real comfy .. keeps your head real warm and when we turned back in to aberdovey estuary later in the day was great not to have wind and spray in your face

gul black shadow drysuit took a little getting into at 1st (bloody zips) but didn't feel cold or get wet .. fantastic

190 newton crewsaver automatic lifejacket was unsure when i received this as it felt slighty heavier than my others but was surprised how comfortable it was didn't know i had it on

ready now for some winter ribbing bring it on ...!!

short video my mate john and son ribkid warming domino up aberdovy estuary while i have job of parking the car and trailer " type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350">

I've had the Typhoon Rock Boots for 12months now and your right there great ,I use them on the rib and my kayak with or without my blac,,,, er crew saver drysuit you can walk over shingle , pebbles and feel nothing , also grip well on deck . I certainly recommend them .
