7 mil suit for diving and a 4/3 for surf the swell the last couple days has been 20' to 30' at 17sec but its dropping now ,average surf in winter is head to double overhead with exposed spots much larger . right now the water temp north of sf is in the low 50s to mid 40s

Phill,
I am not familiar with the wetsuit designation such as 4/3. To what do these values refer?
No shit....I did alot of that. And watching the seals inside a protected rock area that was crashing water like a deranged washing maching.
Hmmmm...wonder why all those seals were more in favor of getting bashed around in there rather than head out into the calmer stuff ? Hmmm....:@:@:)
I am not sure, but like you I wonder if --- Mr. White knows rough seas will drive the weaker or less knowledgeable seals into calmer seas, and if, and only if, she/he were to wait patiently in this calm area, the snacks would come swimming in a bit tooooooo close for their comfort.
No actual scientific data to support my premise, but I wonder if----
4mil/3mil is the thickness of the suits body and extremities, like a 4 mil torso and 3 mil arms and legs.
If you only hit the North part of the State, you got the better half Aaron. :innocent2:
Whites could give a shit if it's 47F and a washing machine, they'll just sit off the pod and wait until one or more get hungry enough to try to squirt through the shallows. The area you might be describing at Jenner is just North of a beach named Salmon Creek that's real popular with the brothers.

like baja said its suit thickness . most surf suits are thicker in the chest and legs and thinner in the arms and sometimes legs (4/3/3) for flexibility and paddling . first # is chest ,second #is arms ,third #is legs if different than chest

My thanks. I looked all over the internet for that information with no success.
