waterpark report
I just got home after spending the week in Buffalo,NY for work. I flew in very early Sunday morning and decided to check out Niagara Falls as I've never seen it. I decided while there I would check out the indoor waterpark right by the falls. I put on a black speedo solar under my clothes and when I got there undressed to my suit at my locker and spent the next few hours there. It was pretty busy and some of the lines were really long. I really thought with it being an international destination I wouldn't be the only guy in a brief, but I was. I did see an asian man in a square cut suit and a white man in a square cut as well. Not the best indoor park I've been to but I had fun. I got some usual funny looks but it never bothers me. The only comment I hears was when I went to my locker to check my cell phone, you need to pass down a hallway full of glass windows looking outside. There was a 40's something man with 4 boys about 11 or 12. As I passed the one boy began to stare. When I got done checking my phone they were still there and I heard the boy say,"I've never seen a guy wear one of those" to the man. He replied with something about Europe but I didn't catch it. Then I heard the boy say something about he's seen divers wear them before and the man replied something about speedos making it better for divers going in the pool but I really didn't hear much more as I was too far away. I know guys on this board seem hesitant about wearing a speedo to a waterpark, but that is about what you will expect. Don't worry about it. It's more in your head.

If you're the only one wearing Speedos at a regular pool you don't get stared at, but at a waterpark you do? Is that the inference?

Waterparks are just a little more public. You have to stand in line, etc. I wore a speedo to Disney... It was kinda weird eating lunch in a speedo, but it was a lot of fun.

Speedos actually vastly improve the water slide experience and are ideal for a situation when you are in and out of the water due to not holding much water.

Also wore a speedo all day including lunch at Atlantis. Very few speedos on the slides. but a fair amount at the pools. I ate at a counter service location, but even saw a few men in just speedos at a table service restaurant near the pool. |

You got that right. Especially the much lamented 'Der Stuka" at Orlando's long gone Wet n Willd. Not having to pluck the mesh liner of dork shorts out of one's fundament was a blessing. https://s15-us2.startpage.com/cgi-bi...e39 3bb92c034 |

For sure, if you know how to ride a waterslide the last thing you need is a bunch of fabric messing up the hydrodynamics. They turn your butt into a water brake when it could be smoothly riding on the film of water your heels and shoulder blades are. There is a trick to it, balancing your body weight on the three points, not letting any point touch the slide. Can't be done in baggy shorts. Once I learned this I could really whiz through the tube.

And hopefully there is no whizzing in the tube... or lazy river.. but I am sure it happens.. a LOT! |

Yikes, not quite what I was referring to but since you mentioned it, water parks have to work extra hard to keep the water clean. Some don't. Yuck.

It is advisable to wear a speedo in some of these slides? I figure a speedo may not hold up the wear and tear.
