Moving onto the vital consideration of fashion on the water.
In an effort to further widen the generation gap that has appeared in recent threads I pose the question - 'to wear or not to wear the boardies over the wetsuit'.
It appears that the youngsters answer to this question is 'to wear' and the oldies 'not to wear'
If true further important questions may be asked - Are the wearers hiding something? or hiding the fact that they have nothing to hide? are the non wearers devoid of style?

I have onluy one question. Why do you need boardies or pants over a wetsuit ?

SOMETIMES...harnesses and/or wetsuits dont have anything to secure your key to.
The youngsters of today are wearing the 'fashionable' items of clothing while the oldies stick to 'classics' whether that be wetsuits or boardies with suspenders to pull them up to nipple height. Those concerned about how to look fashionable usually turn to the youngsters as they are the future and are aware of fashions. In other words get used to it cause the youngsters know whats fashionable and are going to be kiting the longest AND will replace the oldies eventually. For those concerned about fashion, many find a quick glance at womens day, cleo or vogue while the missus isnt looking works a treat.
It may look gay but just remember that many women think brad pitt totally waxed and in a skirt is hot. Myabe theyre onto something...

I just but boardies over the top to cover my legs because the wet suits go to far up it's like wearing realy small tight shorts it just feels and looks gay.
Just like those fat builder who wear realy tight shorts and lets it all hang out with sweat and fleshy white skin with real bad hair groth not a very nice sight to me.

ben & flake, sounds like you need a visit from...

"Queer Eye for the Kiter Guy"

I reckon the fairer sex have the right to cover them selves for modesty purposes.

But for the life of me I've never been able to figure the logic of wearing your jammies down the beach.

I suppose it's easier to identify em, a bit like why certain people drive volvo's.

Now I'll take my 40yo bod with my potty and skinny legs, hop back on my wind surfer and await the flamers

Great surf out there, provided you don't mind frost bite.
