it's still direct skin on skin contact so yes syphilis, hpv and herpes would be a potential risk from this.  

the recommendation is - if your pants are off with a partner whose std status you aren't sure of, a condom should be on.

"Welcome to our Forum.  I'll try to help.  To my knowledge (which is better than most), there are no data on the risk of STD associated with docking as you describe. "
