Henderson Hyperstretch

Went out for the first time this year yesterday! During the night dive the bottom was down to 39 degrees. The only part of my body that I did not feel the cold was my hands. I was using my new 7mm Hyperstretch and it they where great!

Sorry, I was using a 5mm hood = chilly, 5mm boots = chilly, rental 7mm suit = chilly, and the 7mm Hyperstretch gloves = toasty.

We only hit 39 for a min or two, otherwise most of the diving was high 50's - low 60's. The 39 was cold but not nearly as bad as I would have thought.
