The Chinese divers have been getting better with each event they enter.

..... but what a shame the French guy wants to be another David Beckham with all those horrible tats.
(I hope Tom Daley has his tv career sorted out between now and 2016)

Tom Daley shouldn't have anything to cause him to worry until the Olympics unless something that could be foreseen happens.

A rather strange action pic of him where he seems to allow a sneaky peeky of the new Speedo pattern for Team GB (always prefer his fit in a Speedo rather than an Adidas and same goes for the other guys)

Wow I really like this new speedo design

[Byron]

A bit better to see him here with one of the girls too
(LOL - note her tanline - a very skimpy bikini revealed there I think):

I like Speedos new pattern for team GB better than Adidas pattern.

[skinnykid]

So is the British Diving Team not sponsored by Adidas anymore? Speedo is a much better brand.

[shaulis]

I don't know if Speedo is sponsoring team GB or not. I just liked the Speedo version of the team suit better than Adidas.

[Byron]

Speedo (and British Gas) are always there for national and international diving championships (and by far my own preference too but I have yet to find a pic of TD wearing the latest design at the Barcelona pool for 2013).

Adidas appears at Olympic Games and that may be because there is a big contract on offer for complete team attire and Speedo may not be up to manufacturing so much clothing as Adidas are used to doing worldwide.

[Byron]

Yes, Chinese divers doing well in Barcelona so far.
Sadly TD gets 6th place with with his torn triceps
injury and which apparently needs physio treatment
between every dive to relieve pain.

If anyone is interested there is a channel called Universal Sports Network and they have been showing events from Barcelona. If you have Directv its on channel 625.

[Byron]

Tried them and events listed - but to actually get a video not possible as they are obviously subscription channels.

Germany's first in diving - the mens synchro winners for 10m platform at Barcelona: http://static0.demotix.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/a_scale_large/2200-0/photos/2278130.jpg
