How This Trip Will Level Up Your Surfing

The sudden exposure to cold stimulates blood flow as the body works to maintain core temperature.
Improved circulation can promote overall cardiovascular health.
-
Regular cold water immersion may enhance the immune system by increasing white blood cell counts and improving resilience against illnesses.
-
Cold water tightens pores and cuticles, reducing skin irritation and improving the appearance of hair.
-
Exposure to cold water triggers the release of endorphins and may lower cortisol levels, helping to manage stress and anxiety.
-
The shock of cold water stimulates the release of "feel-good" chemicals like dopamine and serotonin, enhancing mood and focus.
-
Some people report improved sleep due to the calming effects on the nervous system and lowered core body temperature.
