Here's how i see it:

surfers are out in the ocean alone on a board trying to catch a wave. yeah they might bump into some people but whatever. they dont wear life jackets.

wakeskaters are usually on a cramped boat changing in close range to a bunch of dudes that dont want to see your junk. its just courtesy to put on some shorts and not stick your bulge into other peoples square, getting ready, stretching, getting other gear, moving throughout a boat, etc.

ALSO normally we wakeskaters have to wear life jackets and it's completely awkward for the rider and onlookers to see a big bulky upper torso, and skin tight body condoms below. something surfers dont deal with so it looks cool all fullsuit.

Sometimes i rock both depending on the day. for ease if its like 3 people in the boat and if no cops are around ill wear full suit only. sometimes i forget my shorts. for added style i'll put shorts and a t shirt on.

in the end, non of this matters your still riding a board on water we're the coolest mother f-ers around!!!

I'll usually wear shorts over a suit only if I'm kiteboarding. In kiting it's more of a way to separate myself from the kooks, haha. So purely a style thing to make me WAYYYY cooler than everyone else.

But I don't mind having a sausage party at the cable dock. Cool

^^^^ dude wakeskating naked is awseome. Your "thingy" flying every which way in the wind. I don't think people have felt that free since 1863.

I'm with all of the people who said something along the lines of it really shouldn't matter. People talk about style a lot. Style is a really important thing in wakeskating, and I don't necessarily think that style ends with what your tricks look like. I can't say much about the wetsuit thing in particular because I don't wetsuit. We have like 3 or 4 months in TX where you need one at all. But where I stand on it, generally, is that if it puts your mind in a better place to wear anything (over your wetsuit, under your wetsuit, wherever), wear it. If it makes you more comfortable, even if all that means is thinking you look pretty good, chances are, it will compliment your own personal style and i definitely support that.

SEAMAN, I don't see why anyone would give you crap for wearing normal skate shoes. Honestly I don't know many people who wear wakeskate specific shoes, and I know very few people who disagree that there are much better feeling shoes to ride in than any wakeskate shoe out there.

Why is this in general wakeskating? Or even a thread for that matter? This is embarrassing.
