A tattoo seems to ward off the dreaded dragonboat butt.  The evidence is hard to dispute:

While saving up for that costly tattoo; try bagbalm before and after.  Not as sexy as a personal lube, butt it does work!!

Advanced Healing rocks, before and after. Expensive though!

If you aren't yet 'opened up' it's amazing what a little Vaseline will do. Not enough to wreck your clothes, just smear a little on the trouble areas before practice. Don't knock it till you try it.

or is it my crack has a thread???

anyways a couple of other suggestions to prevent your butt cheeks bleeding through your khakis:

body glide: a non petroleum based anti chaffe.  apply like anti perspirant to desired areas.  used by many endurance athletes- ofthen to prevent nipple chaffe.

use a double layerd short.  birdies board shorts, only available in HI as far as i know.  the seat is a double layer so that the fabric rubs against each other instead of against your skin.  used by some outrigger paddler friends of mine.  i've not had a butt scab since.  you can always wear two layers of nylon shorts that don't bind together.

Just a thought on butt sores, you could always trying a regular pair of underwear that fits.  Wink

one product line you might consider is the Under Armour line of ginch.  For the men folk out there the compression ginch is great for paddling.  They make a ladies style that is comparable.  http://www.underarmour.com I believe is the website

the vaseline is to be applied to prevent chafing?

my buttpad doesn't work all the time, so it's always polysporin and a bandaid, though i'll try the vaseline idea if it'll prevent the problem

Paddleho's right. Vaseline is only good if the sore hasn't opened up yet.

if you take a page from Lance Armstrong's book (and all other professional cyclists).  They use Vaseline, but they don't put it on lightly.  They smear it on with great big gobs.

Course, you don't have a Dboat seat up your crack, so this could be different.  Or do you?   Wink

what's funny is I haven't even seen the episode yet where this one came from.

I'm trying to figure out how on Earth they managed to write this one in.  Funny as hell

btw if anyone thinks this avatar is a bit racy, just remember it's not the only avatar around here showing a little bum.   Twisted Evil

i got a pair of under armour as someone suggested here and it works great! no more chafing! a bit expensive, but worth the price.
