divers have gorgeous bodies, and they know it!

I like this pic of Tom, it's a small image but still great:

olympic diving makes men bodies look like fabulous works of art. I specially like how they build muscle legs.

hope you like this thread and if you have more nice diving pictures, please share them!
:)

you never get tired of looking at such pics. thanks for sending them nice divers and suits to.

totally agree, louis! you're from canada, aren't you? parles tu francais, ou plus exactement, québécois? :)

[SwimTeamSpeedo]

Nice selection of pics. They have every reason to be proud of their bodies.

[Byron]

Certainly can't disagree with all that - a thread for divers produces some great pics (twt - check out cool photos as we have also found a few good ones in the past - started I think by STS).

LOL - hope Louis appreciates that he gets acute accents in your text (ashamed to say not on my keyboard - can you do garcon also with a cydilla?) (I might also say the divers are divers - hope you get that awful blague)

One point to raise - the guy in gray speedo wears an Othotica suit (as I make out).
Am I misreading the logo however? - no website for such a brand name that I can find.

[thisweirdthing1985]

thanks. yes, they do, every cm² of skin on these guys is masculinity at its best.

[thisweirdthing1985]

that brand in the gray speedo is an unsolved mistery. maybe it's a local company in Mexico.

but, when talking about gray, I prefer this suit:

PS: Has Mike suddenly sprung a surprise on posts? - thought I was getting all mixed up in my reading but realise that latest goes to the top of the thread now and not the bottom.

[Byron]

LOL - what can I say?
Even he might like it (and Justin?) but have long
deliberately avoided that bit of photo-shop
(there's another in blue Speedo - he is turning with
arm raised and a sort of snarl on his face) (but his
hairline is all wrong for a start).

Now I will submit this one - a very sexy gray again - brand unknown but with a white diagonal:

[thisweirdthing1985]

you're welcome, mon cher ami. you know, I like to learn languages. I'm not still good in french, but I'm trying to do the best.
I used to watch the news in french from quebec (cable tv) and watched some canadian movies in french, but indeed couldn't find -at first glance - many differences between french and quebecois pronounciation. only some words are different.

oui mon ami, les slips de bain sont magnifiques! :p

Wow, certainly I don't like transparent suits much, but I have to say I liked that suit (the diagonal looks nice!) and how the photo had been taken.

thanks byron!

Now we are reminded of what TD is likely to be up against in Rio (and it will be a hard job*)
I like their blue speedos - I wish they would move that red flag somewhere which spoils appreciation of the pattern.

*did I mention Diving World Series event - coming up for London 25-27 April ?

[thisweirdthing1985]

yes, the chinese flag over the whole design looks weird.

Do you like also Red Bull Cliff Diving in Copenhagen?
Lucky people that appeciate this sport in London. Hope someone post about this (Diving World Series) in some new thread. It would be funny to have some kind of representation of this website in that event :p :D

[Byron]

LOL - I thought reading the word Cliff in a country as flat as a pancake seemed odd but yes - I have now checked out Red Bull's diving tower built
for their 2013 event.
(I believe Brian Aldridge is/was with them - he of the past TD synchro. partnership and famously making his 'phone call to Mum from the poolside).


(btw, just to clarify, London in April is FINA)

[Byron]

:) Get your ruler out - a perfect camera moment:

Two at the rear are Team GB - they are Chris Mears and Nick Robinson-Baker

Louis will appreciate these, Alexandre Despatie in a great series of pics:

Oh great great magnificent pics of Alexandre despatie, iv seen many pics of Alexandre but never those, thanks a million SwimTeamSpeedo for posting them. I indeed did appreciate them greatly, thanks again.

TD gives advance notice for the London event started today.
No pics that I can find but should be interesting as he will be going against David Boudia again on the 10m platform.

[Byron]

(re. your post on Ebay sellers' attempts to cash-in)
The new GB team Speedo has shown up in pics quite frequently now (and Jack Laugher looks good in action ) - and the one above of TD was at the time of its first introduction I believe.

[Byron]

http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m89eqrr3Mv1rog67ko1_500.jpg
We all know the true Tom Daley pic here but some clever dick has removed his suit. The genital area is then pixellated but there would have been no revelation in the real image anyway.
We sure get some weirdos on the www (and this one is thinking of a possible lawsuit perhaps?)

[louis]

Lol How Do You Know Its Uncut

[Byron]

..........my super Xray app zoomed in on this:

(and Mrs. G. will surely not object?)

[louis]

I will have to get one of those super zoomers, Aaaahhhhhh

[louis]

Ops I meant xrays to see cuts or uncuts whatchamacallit again zizis I think

[Byron]

Yes, thought at one time only to be the mark of a Jew but the practise so widespread elsewhere in modern times that it cannot be a definition now.

[sebbie]

Here is the reference on the subject. Drastic differences between the US and Europe.Until the 1970s nealy every male baby in the US was circumcised, gradually declined after.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prevalence_of_circumcision

[louis]

Does it hurt to be circumstized or should i say cut, i notice that on many pics of guys in speedos you can tell if they are or not trough the speedo.

[sebbie]

It does but for babies they have no memory of it..For the 12 year olds its a completely different matter.

One reason more Pagans coinverted to Christianity rather than Jew is because the Jews had the circumcision requirement for adults undergoing conversion, whereas the Christians did not, according to some historians, The whole idea terrified many Pagans.

Circumcision goes back to Abraham, but in Christian doctrine baptism replaced circumcision. Jews are with Abraham. The whole story on how circumcism affected the ultimate numbers of Jews versus Christians can be found in this book, written by a sociologist not a theologan.

[Byron]

LOL - I had such stupid parents that I was only told that the doctor made a little cut on me when I was a baby. As the only cut I could see was to release pee I thought that must be a good idea as I knew it could not be held in forever.
(Sebbie will correct me but I believe only certain rabbis are certificated for the ritual in order to ensure a standard of hygiene and safety)

[Dooley67]

Certain Jewish men, not necessarily rabbis are called "mohels" and are certified to perform the ritual circumcision which is called a "bris" done when a Jewish boy is 8 days old. These men are experts and usually there is a rabbi present to conduct the religious ritual prayers that go along with the circumcision. Others choose pediatricians to perform the circumcision along side the rabbi. Many people in large cities prefer the "mohel" because he has so much experience.

It may be an Arena suit. The logo looks like the Waternity one that signifies the suit is made from Arena's version of Polyester/PBT

[Byron]

(to answer my own question in post#52 - AC say they have not adopted the Swiss flag - their logo is intended to signify a Lifeguard)

[Bede735]

Not being biased, but the England ones look the best!
