Wetsuit gloves
December is the month that you see surfers cracking out the neoprene boots and gloves; anyone who is out there battling with the winter swell and winds will tell you that it’s starting to get pretty chilly in the water now. A good quality covering on your extremities can make all the difference to the amount of quality water time you get in when the temperature drops.

This is the ultimate surf gadget and cool surfers gift that you just can’t fail with this Christmas. The only downside is that you may be made to watch countless hours of home surf footage once they get up and running with it.
