I would assume that the Aussie lifeguards wear nylon suits, so probably not. Plus, the lifeguards are sitting in the chairs most of the time, and there is a very good reason for them wearing such attire - namely to be less encumbered while trying to save someones life. Like I stated previously, I don't have a problem with the nylon suits. I wouldn't wear one at the beach, but more power to you if you want to. I just do not see why you are a coward or insecure if you want to wear board shorts at the beach instead of something that says HEY LOOK AT ME. Some of you need to get over this hateful attitude toward people with a bit of modesty and humility.
The funniest thing about this thread is the fact that some of you think that the people on the beach see you as this self confident studdly man walking down the beach strutting his stuff when nothing could be further from the truth. Strutting around like a peacock in a day glow man thong is hilarious, its not cool. Thanks for the comic relief though.
One more thing, long board shorts (ie. surf trunks) actually have a function being long. The long shorts keep the wax on the deck of the surf board from balling up in your leg hairs, which is painful and rips out your hair. Even if you shaved your legs, they would be raw and chaffed from the wax (and why I often wear a rash guard to protect my chest while surfing) if you wore speedos while surfing. Since I always surf when I go to the beach, there is no way that I am wearing a speedo. But then again I must be a coward or insecure right?
