Only reason I've ever done it is to be easily identified for Filming/Shooting

could this be a reason????
When there are surf lessons, everyone in the group wears the same colour vest over the suit for obvious reasons. However.... i suspect the new surfers dont realise that when they go surf alone. :oops:

It helps shore bound spouses more easily identify their mates.

Board shorts over the suit?

Thats overkill.
I only wear briefs over my wetsuit.

Only know of pro's wearing them for photo shoots and contests. Either the dude had a bud on the beach with a telephoto, he's a kook, or you are a kook in the middle of a contest LOL
