I'm a winter park flyer, usually get out when winds are less than 10 mph. Have skis on my Lil' Poke and keeping my hands warm is the only problem while waiting for the 20 minutes for my LiPo to run down (heh, heh). I bought some "dexterity" workmens gloves at my local Home Depot (my wife calls it "Home Despot") for 8 bucks. I can run the sticks with them, but hands still get cold.
