Hello, In the southern hemisphere it's coming towards summer, and over here that means swimming. As a trans-masculine individual, swimming kinda sucks, but I'd like to go surfing this year so I need advice. Can anyone direct me towards good methods to bind while swimming? I have a larger chest so lightweight stuff doesn't tend to work.
If you wear a swim binder and a rash guard, that usually works the best. I have a swim binder from underworks, which works well (I have a small chest though). I don't know if anywhere else sells them, but I'd recommend them. Rash guards are compressing themselves, so if you wear both it'll work pretty well. It might be kind of uncomfortable though.
Ditto baconpox's suggestion - a swim binder and/or rash guard is a good option. Underworks swim binder - Sleeveless Swim Top - F2M Binders Outplay swim binder - Flatsea Outplay - full coverage swimwear binding top Flavnt's upcoming swim binder (which will be available in a variety of skin tones, if that's something that interests you!) - Bareskin Top
Sites like Underworks sell swim binders and have a step-by-step process with showing you how to find your size.
