Coming in August 2009 - Aloha, I am from Hawaii and will be on Te Waipounamu (south island)from 08.19.08 - 09.05.09. The surf looks unreal, and I was wondering if there are any local shops that do rentals? I am going to be there on my honeymoon, and bringing my snowboard, so there is a lot of stuff to pack. Does it get good in the winter? If anyone could let me know, or if anyone wants to go surfing while I am there, I would totally be stoked, and retutn the aloha if anyone ever came to Hawaii.

wetsuit for S. Island - Midway down S. Island (Timaru) the sea goes to 7.5 degrees in July. Surfers use 5.2 mm or the new super-stretch neoprene of 4 mm. All wear hood, gloves, boots. The further S. you go the colder it gets. Crank the heater of your car 20 minutes before reaching the break so you're cooking by the time you hit the ocean. That way you'll have an hour plus in the water.
