I'm diving regularly here in North Idaho where we still have a few lake that aren't frozen over! I love this time of year to dive, but looking for some ideas on how to safely keep warm while diving.
I have my drysuit and undergarments dialed in, but my feet and hands get pretty cold. My boots are attached , and my feet are numb when I I'm in the water and take a while to thaw after.
I've layered socks, but still cold.
Has anyone ever used those chemical foot warmers while diving the cold?
My hands are a different story. I use wet gloves for now, and dip my hands and gloves in the hot water after the dive to thaw them out. But during the dive it just gets plain cold.
Any tips?
