EJ just dropped us a quick note top let us know how his IR gear has been performing while paddling in sub-freezing conditions at Rock Island:

This is as good as it gets!  IR top, pogies, skull cap, Uni-suit, and new sweet bungee skirt! I am dry and warm (I am wearing glacier gloves under the pogies, however, so cheating, but it is only 19 degrees out.)

And some pics:
