dude,
thermals suck, when i was in Canada Snowboarding one day it got to -7 (-18 at the peak) and we weren't wearing thermals.....
not going to lie it was dam cold but at least your package isn't buddled up like a bunch on grapes!

and you get use to it....
the other thing we tried was stopping at all the places down the slope and drinking bourbon....that makes snowboarding alot funner....
bet your still having fun dude!
Cheers

When the Titanic sunk in 1912 a bloke was found still alive in the freezing water after paddling around on a door for over 2 hours after the ship went down.
Everyone else that was swimming had perished long before that.
He survived after being found and put in a lifeboat.
Apparently he'd drank a full bottle of whisky as the ship went down

.
Alcohol has a lower freezing point than water ( we have water in us

) and the theory at the time was that the alcohol acted as an antifreeze and saved his life
Dunno whether thats why he survived but the grog could have helped I guess
So Aust Mod,
If you ever find you're swimming around in the mid Atlantic in mid winter at around 2 am on an old door then just fill up on whisky and you'll probably be alright.
'till the headache hits the next morning
