What do i wear under a surf wetsuit?

Question

do i need to wear jus under wear or wear boardshorts under?

i tried board shorts under but it gets uncomfortable with the shorts crumpled in the inside of the wet suit.

Answer 1

Nothing is okay, unless you are surfing someplace where you might have t change without a towel or a car to sit in. Board shorts are okay for some people, but if that is too uncomfortable for you, and you choose not to go 'commando' a Speedo or bike shorts are nice, tight fitting alternatives. Whatever you do, don't listen to the guy who said put Vaseline on your wetsuit. Although I don't really think it will harm the neoprene, it will make it virtually unwearable and a slippery mess in no time. Even in the 'old days' (I started surfing in '66) before we had improved neoprene wetsuits, we used talcum powder to help slip them on, not petroleum jelly.

Answer 7

I wear nothing but a rashguard.

No underwear as it can get bunched up and with a tight suit it can be hard to straighten out.

The rashguard is a must as it will keep the tight suit from chafing your armpits, behind the knees, not to mention your chest.

Answer 8

Don't wear anything underneath.

Your not supposed to wash it afterwards either.

What you do, is just let it soak in fresh water, after surfing. Or you can go in the shower with it on, then let it naturally dry.

Answer 9

I go completely naked under my wetsuit...its the only way to go.

Answer 10

Try a speedo or jammers( A speedo just longer).
