Just curious, is there any difference between boardshorts and regular swimming shorts? Why are they so much more expensive.

I hate board shorts because if u wear em with not underwear, u have this huge bulge sticking out. I go with trunks with a liner, and i still dont liek em cuz of the bulge... i hate having my mom watch me nad a big bulge from the sind blowing ur shorts against ur legs sticking out

usually i wear lycra underneath to eliminate the pain. otherwise with loose dingle berries it hurts when you get slammed against the water. Fox has a pair with built in lycra I think I may try those out. Board shorts Definatly do dry faster than regular shorts. The one negative side is definatly the buldge. Even worse when the temp is cool, the shrink factor

I hate the damn linings on "swimsuits"... and the elastic waists...

Board shorts are great because you can where them anytime, even if you are not around water. With regular swim shorts people will be like "Dude, why are you wearing swimshorts?" Plus they are way more comfy without the elastic or the netting.

Boardshorts are usually longer and they are much more comfy. I sleep in mine usually.

I find board shorts not only dry faster but are of higher quality than a generic bathing suit. When I used to use bathing suits, I'd tear two pairs and be well on my way through a third by the end of the summer. But, a pair of board shorts is justing starting to wear out after a summer.

New Flash for ya, your mommy has already seen your little yahoo so trust me she's not out there coping a free peek.

I use boardshorts with HO neoprene short underneath I have like 5 pairs of these things so I always have a dry pair to put on. They act like a wet suit, keep you a little bit warmer and keep the boys nice and snug so you don't get the sack slap, that hurts like hell and will sting for hours.

The speedos that are like boxer-briefs are great underneath boardshorts. Keep ya tucked so ya don't have to worry about the little ones smackin' the water too hard...

How much does a pair of those neo shorts cost. Do they dry quickly? I like boardshorts but I hate how long it takes for underwear to dry and I REALLY hate wanting to puke all over myself after ball slappage.

The last thing I think about is my what my "bulge" looks like when I am around my mom. Sicko.

P.s. -- How many more times can you say bulge?

I get mine for low money through my connection at the local board shop (why I have 5 pairs) but they would retail for about $30.
No they don't dry quick in fact they stay wet all F-n' day so do your sets and then take them off. I live on the lake so that's not an issue for me.
