paddle pants. they have neoprene cuffs at the ankle and the waist that helps keep water out. the material is waterproof, but the holes arent. but it still helps.
paddle shoes. basically high top surf shoes. but the ones i have, made by Warmers, actually help keep my feet warmer. they let water in and out of them, but after a few seconds, your body heat warms the water and they feel comfy again.
paddle jacket. the only time i ever get wet over my waist is when i launch through the surf.i dont own one, but would like to get a paddle jacket. basically the same breathable waterproof material as the paddle pants, with neoprene cuffs at the waist and wrists. afterwards, you can just pull it off, or keep it on like a windbreaker. right now im using the top ofone of those cheap rain suits that you can get for $5. it works, but you better have some warm gear underneath, because it gets HOT when youre covered in non-breathable plastic. hehe.
you can get all this stuff at REI... if you have a store somewhere in your area.but i believe they have a website also. forewarning: theyre expensive.
