Immersion Research 7Figure Drysuit – Review

24 November 2020 / / 0 Comments

The nights are drawing in. The temperature is dropping, and the rain is falling. I should be excited; the Scottish paddling season is kicking off. Months of blustery days, where the heavens open and you go paddling almost every weekend.
