What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I started reaching for the Absolute Core Glove 3mm once the water dropped enough that my hands were going numb before the end of a session. The fit is snug without being restrictive, and I had no problem feeling the rail or gripping the board through the whole time I had them on."Cold hands are one of the fastest ways a great session turns into a short one, and the Absolute Core Glove 3mm from Billabong is built to keep that from happening. At 3mm, it hits the sweet spot for surfers dealing with genuinely cold water who still need full dexterity through every paddle stroke, pop-up, and turn on the wave. The five-finger construction keeps grip natural and contact with the board direct, so nothing about your surfing feels compromised by the added insulation. Pull them on before paddling out and stay in the water well past the point where bare hands would have sent you in.
