Right up front, I prefer to dive wet (why be in the water and be dry...I could stay on land or a boat?)
But in the last several dives, with water temps in the 36-40F range, my hands and my toes get cold and numb after about 20 minutes exposure, to the point that I have to get into warmer water and/or terminate the dive.
Any suggestions on how to keep them warm? I'm comfy with my 7mm Farmer Johns; the gloves are 7/5 Akona, and the boots are Henderson 5's. Are there liners or insulators or something... I'd like to be able to spend a bit more time in the water.
Thanks!
