Eventually...i should have been more clear...I am specifically refering to the Dakine Nitro which is the seat harness / board shorts one. I am wondering if by wearing boardshorts under it that things will bunch up and get uncomfortable...

Compression shorts like the ones from Under Armor. Basically tight lycra shorts, but a lot cooler thanks to that UA logo on them.... They keep things tidy and prevent "huevos en fuego" (or sack rash) if you end up wearing your board shorts all day

Or you can also try "Jammers" made for competitive swimming. As an instructor, I find them an absolute necessity!

Wetsuit shorts are best under the Dakine Nitrous harness, no bunching like board shorts, very comfortable
