Has anyone used SEAL SKINZ GLOVES for windsurfing in the winter?

best bet is dakine mitts, i think big winds stocks them, gloves don't work!

Come to think of it, I'm kiting so don't have to hold on to a boom with my MEC kayak gloves. And I remember that neoprene palms are not your forearm's friend as you struggle to get hooked in ... I believe dish-washing gloves were my answer for a year or so .... (I'm dating myself)

oops forgot, buy the mitts a couple of sizes too big, that's the key, you want them loose, that will also solve the forearm issue.
