I appreciate that a swimming wetsuit will have more flush than a diving suit though.
My diving suit is semi-dry. I really try not to piss in it.
kite sufing, diving, sailing... I think what we learn is that only a surfer knows the feeling... 🙂
I endured a full hour lecture as GB Youth Squad sailor (next seat was a certain Mr/Sir Ainslie) on going to the loo while bobbing around in a Laser / 420 / etc.
A few 'highlights' include women using the daggerboard slot as a seat.
No.2 could be hiking over stern.
Trapeze and squeeze
(etc)
The old ones are the best (jokes not pensioners).
Though pensioners are grateful.
I wear trunks just to make it easier to change.
But my mate wears a full tri suit under his as he is so hairy the hairs get caught in the zip and jam it. He is VERY hairy though.
I think maybe what you’re doing whilst wearing the suit does comes into it. I’m normally sat in a kayak, sailing a Laser etc so don’t want to sit in my own pee.
wouldnt a drysuit be a better choice for sailing anyway?

Could he not just put some sort of hydrophobic coating on his hair then he wouldn't need a wetsuit and would float on top of the water like a giant pond skater
Slight digression: rashies cut down friction and make paddling/swimming easier and save you from burning up in the heat, don't knock em. Trunks can give you rashes.
I know I will be alone on this one but I just don’t get this. Why would I want to pee in my wetsuit?
To warm yourself up.
