Under the wetsuit???

[svnipp]

Total noob question here, but what do most guys wear under a wetsuit? I would have to guess a Speedo would probably be the most comfortable since anything with a lot of material like regular swim trunks would bunch up. Just curious.

I wear a ScubaPro 1.0 mm shorts. The legs fall about mid-calf length.

You're right, typical swim trunks will bunch up, and it's not the most comfortable. I see lots of guys do it.

I haven't worn a Speedo since I was a kid in high school. I guess some guys wear them, but it's not for me.

Conventional trunks really won't be a problem at all but I usually wear jammers, the speedos with the bike short cut.

I wear underarmour type underpants. Quick dry and don't bunch up.

Nothing. I'm never comfortable with anything under my wetsuits. If I wore some spandex shorts or something, that would probably be okay, but why spend the extra money when I'm more comfortable with nothing on under the suit?

I always wore my regular swim trunks and never had a problem with bunching of material. I think that is the case mainly because I also wore a dive skin to make it easier to get the suit on and off.....the side effect was that it held the bathing suit in place and prevented bunching. YMMV

Same here - very comfortable.

Compression shorts or Scubapro 1 mm Hybrid shorts.

Yeah. I figure that I'll wear a pair of jammers under the wetsuit. Definitely don't want to go commando since it's a rental wetsuit. Seems going commando is more trouble when it comes to suiting up since you are going to need a little privacy for that. Not a big deal in some cases, but in others not real appropriate.
