Pics: Undies v togs at the Australian Surf Pro

The inaugural Australian Open of Surfing has just wrapped up for 2012 and thousands of scantily bods hit Manly Beach to strut their stuff. Oh and to watch the surf. It was an overwhelming success and they’re already planning a bigger event next year.

Here’s what I saw…

Togs. When sand is in view, it’s togs…
