Besides a bikini speedo, who's got a recommendation for short that don't creep up your leg when coming out of the water while surfing or even wakeboarding?

Just pull your pants down when you get up. [emoji38]

It's actually gotten popular to wear jeans out on the water in our area. No joke, every weekend at least a handful of people riding on jet skis or getting pulled around on tubes wearing jeans. No sneakers though which makes sense because who wants to wear wet shoes all day...
Might be worth a shot, but I'll probably stick to shorts.
If you say so. [emoji23]Quote:

Just make sure you’re only out with the ladies. We don’t want to see that. :D
All kidding aside I love the two pair of O'Neal shorts that I got recently. Hyperfreak Hydros 20" outseam and SuperFreaks 21" outseam. I have pretty thick thighs and have always struggled with trunks riding up and getting stuck. Both of these styles are straight legged, have no inseam and the most flexible pants I have ever worn. Plus with the Hyperdry Plus repellent they never feel all heavy and soppy which to me, helps them stay in place.
Never thought about compression shorts until this season. I bought a few pair of swimmer shorts, they keep your stuff in place really well for wakeboarding, if you know what I mean, lolQuote:

That is funny as hell! Have not seen that trend around here yet but will keep an eye out. Oh the chaffing!Quote:

I've thought about the swimmer's shorts under the trunks - wondering if that helps keep the shorts down or just hides the tan line when the shorts get pushed up regardless.
I was looking at O'Neill's shorts as well. I do dig their styles. I was looking at the Hyperfreak shorts just the other day. Is the fabric any heavier than any other manufacturer?Quote:

They are way softer and way more comfortable. I can wear them all day with no rub and no rash what so ever.Quote:

My problem isn’t having to pull my shorts down, it’s keeping them up. No ass, no hips, lots of em-bare-ass-ment.
Best to get the ones with the draw string[emoji1787][emoji1787]No need to let the turtle out of the shell when surfing!!Quote:

a pair of well fittes jeans are actually really good as others have mentioned, give it a shot ;)
Same here, plus I have what one could call an “extended” butt crack. Plumbers got nothing on me haha. I’ve always worn boxers under my board shorts, which get heavy when wet and never dry out. Ordered these this season and they are awesome:Quote:

The mesh ones are lightweight and dry out fast, plus they seem to stay up enough to somewhat cover my crack. Btw the motto on my boat for over the past decade is “if you don’t like it, don’t look at it” [emoji38]
This is a great thread. I have the same problem with my trunks riding up my leg. drives me crazy and happens with I wakeboard too. I've been pulling them down since I started wakeboarding in 1998. I'd love a solution to this problem. Especially since baggy long trunks are no longer in style, I would think this is easier to solve. FYI, I still have baggy long trunks so please don't take offense to my style comment. I'd like to have slightly shorter (not short) less baggy (not tight) trunks but can't find any. It seems everything is one extreme or the other.
