chafing

Postby saffasurfer7 » Thu Jun 17, 2004 10:14 pm

Ok, this is gonna seem silly but I wear a chafe vest under my suit and often still get chafed on my neck (by the vest), just a small area though. Probs from all the turning my head I do while in the ocean. Is there anything I can do to help this? Other than not moving my head at all, which may be a problem. Or is it a case of just baring it.

Put some vaselene on your neck where it normally chafes on your neck before you go out - works a treat.

I usually get this on my legs from sitting on my board and rubbing into the wax...vasoline (like posted above) always works for me
