Most embarrassing wetsuit mishap/story

Postby carbuf6727 » Sun Sep 05, 2010 1:27 am

I thought I'd see what kind of embarrassing stories people have from wearing, putting on, taking off, wrong size, etc etc people have during the time they've been surfing:)

Fell against the window of the car next to me when taking off my wettie, so my naked arse was pressed hard up against the glass, turned around, and there was a little old lady sat in the passenger seat looking horrified :D

more of a drysuit story but funny all the same....
was on a dive boat in winter in sydney, my mate was trying out his new dry suit that he just bought, he was so smug because he could wear his warm, dry clothes underneath, whilst we were freezing our asses off. as he jumped in the water, waiting for us all to brave the 10 degrees water, he forgot he was in a drysuit and began to empty his bladder as most people do when they step in cold water....the look on his face as he realised he had just peed all over himself and his jeans was priceless and he spent the rest of the trip trying to dry them off on the boat!

The first time i ever went surfing i was in all hired gear. packed off into my room in the holiday cottage with my suit to get changed for the first time. i emerged after a bit of a struggle to get into my wetsuit only to be told i'd put it on back to front. FAIL.

More recently shortly after i got a new wetsuit with a chest zip i managed to put my foot through the inner loop of the neck seal system. i didnt realised until id got both my legs in and pulled up the suit only for the loop to give me a chronic wedgie much to the amusement of my mate who had seen me put my foot through the loop and was waiting to see when i realised.

The curved bum area stitching of my smoothie went from fingertip hole (in the car park getting it on) to completely torn to the back of knees in a rad 4ft shorey classic ! (I do have mates who will vouch for this) - I was last seen duck diving with my tonsils visible via my ocean drilled bum hole !

[Hey – it was too perfect to leave !]
