I keep meaning to try, I DO see people surfing just in their boardies, but I've never quite mustered the balls myself... (and if I had they'd probably have receded back into my body the moment they hit the water - instant sex change style! :lol: )

not warm enough here, i was cold in my shortie the other day. Depends on the surf tho, it was pretty flat so i was mostly just sitting there waiting for waves, if we get a decent swell in shorts will be fine, you dont get so cold when your constantly paddling.

Boardshorts in Maryland (yesterday after work). On a nice day in the afternoon, just not in the morning yet.

Theres only about 2 days a year you can go in minus wetsuit really in sunny Wales without freezing balls/nipples off. we can only hope and dream ..or move to the tropics...
