During the summer (June to September), it´s no problem to ride in just board shorts. From April to June and September to October the water requires a 3/2-wetsuit. Other times during the year you need a dry suit. We ride here in 3/2-wetsuit from April to October. But one to two months during the summer we can ride in just board shorts.

One good thing to know about "Mynningen" is that the wind is always one knot stronger in the river mouth. If the wind is weak, it's always a little big stronger when you go out in the river mouth. This depends on the streams from the river "Lagan". During spring "April to May" the river flow can be really high and this gives you an extra push because you ride against the stream. In summer general lighter winds. Fall to spring stronger winds depending on depressions.
