- TECHNOLOGY
-
On the inside is where the action is. The concept of elastic banding inside a garment, to match the natural lines of force of our muscles amplifies normal movement. When one muscle reacts another relaxes, this allows for smooth movement. This banding technique acts like an explosive sling shot to fire your muscles through the range of movement and allows limbs to recover from the strange positions we put them in. A surfers's legs after a quick aggressive turn are encouraged back to the centre of the board by this banding technique.
-Increase of awareness to muscle reaction
-Control over manoeuvre's and movement increases
-Aids in prevention of injury. Due to overstraining
-Imporeved Proprioception. The awareness of our body in a spatial sense.
-Designed to centralize core support.
-Promotes blood flow back to the heart. As well as lymphatic drainage.

Comments about Quiksilver 1009687 Xplosive 20" Boardshorts:
Finally a pair of trunks that meet the needs of the surfer who wants that next level in function in a surf trunk. I didn't know what to expect with these trunks especially the compression liner. When I tried them on I knew they were worth every cent. There is nothing like them on the market and big props to quik for finally offering something innovative in the way of performance boardshorts for the surfer who wants something to up there game rather than just look cool or wear what there favorite surfer wears. The compression liner targets your muscle groups to maximize your surfing which is exactly what I wanted in a boardshorts. Feels like they are an attachment of your body..

Comments about Quiksilver 1009687 Xplosive 20" Boardshorts:
You can definitely feel the difference the moment you pick these up. The quality is amazing and it looks great. The compression shorts were a bit too tight for my liking so you should make sure you're comfortable with typical ones. They look really cool too and it even shipped in an awesome box.

Comments about Quiksilver 1009687 Xplosive 20" Boardshorts:
FIND A PAIR AND TRY THEM ON!!!! I ordered online and found that they run a little big. With these shorts you need to have a TIGHT fit so that they compression short actually works. Sadly I had to return my pair but would have loved for them to work out.

These are super annoying when you put them on..they look great though...once you hit the water the inside sticks to you like glue and they are awesome....if you just show up and surf in them, hands down, the best...
