RE: Let the seals in the water!

Ah @frankk, that's nice to hear! It seems estonians really are nation of saunas and winter swimming. We've got @raili on board the winter swimming train, for a month already, now I hear you also, there's probably some other blokes as well from our Estonian Discord group, @luts and other peeps..awesome!👍 And perhaps we'll stumble upon each other someplace as well.

Hopefully it will happen yeh, but I agree on sauna and swimming going together, although without sauna cold water is still nice and refreshing, and most importantly good for health(if not in there for too long).

Haha, some of my mates were in the near-zero temp water for 10+ minutes...one guy was in the water for 15 minutes! They are totally insane. Of course with a lot of practice and all that, but later they admitted, it wasn't fun anymore.. But thats proof that our limits can really be pushed. To be honest, my own body would also withstand more, but fingers don't agree.. I might get some thicker gloves for next winter.
