Has anyone ever removed the lining from their lined speeods? Are there any good ways to do it or things to make sure you don't do? I just bought a new pair today and I wanna cut the lining out so I look forward to your advice :D

The result to some extent depends on the stretchiness and thickness of the lycra or nylon material. One effect is the trunks provide less "support" which means things might get a bit loose and floppy, especially when wet. Another is that it may become less opaque and more transparent. Your mileage may vary.
On another board guys refer to the CEF of a speedo. Means Cock Exposure Factor and removing the liner increases the CEF.
Cut carefully, cuz if you nick the outer layer the suit isn't going to last very long. I've used scissors.

Be really careful not to cut the suit! Take your time.
TIP: 1) Turn swimwear inside out... 2) stretch it over a pillow... 3) pull lining from outsides and cut gently.

Thanks for all the replies. I am amazed how much nicer the normal speedos feel compared to the chlorine resistant ones.
