These cuts are therefore better suited to regular or even intensive surfing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWave resistance 500 range\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen surfing, whether it’s due to duck diving or a wipeout, it’s not easy to retrieve and reposition boardshorts that have fallen down while paddling at the same time...\nChoosing the right waistband for surfing becomes essential in this case.\nFor a more secure fit, choose a flat waistband.\nThe BS500 has a flat, anti-slip drawcord that stays securely tied throughout your surfing or other water sports session.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eReduced chafing 500 range\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is surely the most important criteria.

Fasten your shorts and gradually pull them downwards. If they are easy to pull down, it means they are too big and you could be in for a few surprises once you’re in the water surrounded by waves!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat are boardshorts?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoardshorts is a term used to designate this type of swimwear used in the world of surfing and water sports.\nPractical and comfortable, they are suitable for both men and women.\nThis type of swimwear was created in the 1950s for surfing. In more recent years, they have become a popular style of swim shorts.\nThe name “boardshorts” comes from their use in water sports using a board, such as surfing\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFast drying 500 range\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is quite uncomfortable to feel the sand sticking to your boardshorts because they are still soaked with water, or worse still, to feel the fabric of the boardshorts sticking to your skin.\nTo avoid this and to maximise comfort when you wear your swimsuit wet, we recommend choosing swim shorts made from a synthetic fibre fabric component, such as this one. Water will drain away faster and the swimsuit will dry quickly, keeping chafing at bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSurfing boardshorts that stay in place in the waves during wipeouts and duck dives.
