Windhorny,

Does the pink speedo help with the ball slap issue you were dealing with???

I wore speedos for waterpolo but they should only be worn if it is absolutely imperitiv other wise the should be avoided

Kiting already has enough gear to keep track of and pack, doesn't it? I'm usually too busy thinking bar, kites, board, wetsuit & harness to remember my shorts or towel...but that's just me.

This whole topic would make the boys in FL, HI & other warm places laugh their asses off.

Ollie, forgive me:

So yes, the pink speedos do help as my nuts have an allergic reaction to pink, and they see. So when they see the pink, they shrivle up till they are really hard like stale raisins and that actually helps cushion the blow to the balls.

thanks for asking though man. Glad to know the community has an eye out for my twig and berry's well being.

Windhorny, you're an idiot. And judging by your history of posts you'll likely think this as a compliment.....it's not.

Boardshorts:

I wear them sometimes because I think they look cool and other times because on cold days it gives me an extra "windbreaker". Sometimes I choose to not wear them because It's a warm day and I like the ventilation. I hate it when I wear them and they end up falling down when I'm riding; then I feel like an idiot pulling them up when I should be focusing on having fun. I've seen my reflection before with my whole getup on: wetsuit, shorts, impact vest, helmet. I look like a Cardinal Dork.
