Hi Guys
New to the sport, had a short session at swansea bay (tues) from extremly cold hands, after being launched by Richie (thanks buddy) then met up with you guys from Blast, had a long informative chat with all involved & told me about this.

SO does anyone know of some really warm gloves, not too bothered about thickness or does it matter.
cheers
andy

Haha, nice pic!

Welcome to the forum Andy, you'll find them all pretty harmless here, except Doogle (but his bark is worse than his bite) Wink

Hi Andy,

I’m a bit of a wimp in the cold but ION Claw gloves work pretty well for me. Quite thin but have pre-bent fingers so prevent dreaded forearm pump that so many gloves give you........

Oh and welcome to the forum!!

See you down the beach some time,

Ian

Hi guys
glad to be here
because ive just started, supose i havnt got the experience with the fatigue issue yet but would a thinner glove help reduce this? or does a thicker glove really help with the cold.
cheers guys

Your bang on fella, thick gloves can give you the dreaded pumped forearms. BUT too thin and your digits are gonna friggin freeze!

It helps if the bar for your kite is thin....like Zeeko haha! Wink
