Can anyone suggest a good sunscreen that doesn't run into you bloody eyes as soon as you get wet. It's a real pain in the eyes when it 20 to 30 knts, your lit as
trying to wipe your stinging eyes and see where your going.
keen to know.
Cheers
Do a search on this mate you will get a massive number of recommendations. This thread has been done pretty hard.
But you can get the Cancer Council microfine zinc sunscreen - works very well and doesn't come off.
Zinc all the way for me.
Yes you look like a zombie or a snowman but it works beaut and doesn't have all those nasty chemicals in it.
Comes in a convenient lipstick like tube for around $5
I like to wear one of these,
No worries about sunburn and it scares the crap out of the kiddies on the beach.
there's a dude i occasionally see out at "the passage" up at lancelin who wears a balaclava. now that's good sun protection.
personally i use the invisible zinc invisiblezinc.com/ 
,,,,yeah,,,ya right,,,,,,,,sniff
^^^^^^^Like a condomn,,,,wait,,,,what??>>?>?
Sorry,
serious now,
I use the cancer council one.
Zink is better but I end up with it on my bar,cloths,kite,harness,car seat covers,towel,gimp suit,dog,,,,,well you get what I mean.
Ella Bache sports block, cost a bit, but it stays on for hours, and states on tube 'does not sting eyes' which is correct and the best part.
You can only get it at Ella Bache.
like chronic said. Put it on 20 to 30 mins before and it'll absorb into your skin and all will be fine. Never had any probs as long as you put it on before you rig up. Cancer council rubs in schweet!
the problem specimen has is this,
Parks in cark park 1pm latest(hope the boss aint reading this)
gets out of car,
gimp mask on,
wetsuit already on
harness already on
dont have 30 mins to get ready and sunscreen to settle in, already wet been in car park for 4 hrs waiting for the wind with this damn mask on you sick barstards
and hey airhead hope i dont ever meet you or your mate at the "passage" with your stingy eyes
Thanks for all that great advice and noted but I think your f#%^*+ closets. Plus you dudes forgot the crucial part for your gimp **** the red ball that goes in all your mouths when your arse is getting whipped.
Cheers
Sunscreen under a gimp won't wash off, but the Armorall on top will. Just kite with your eyes shut.
Zinc..... Rub it in then apply more, buy skin colour if you are worried about looking like a mime. Avoid the 80's style flouro
