"Well, we're here so who's going to turn on the faucet?" |
It strikes me that those are all Turbo brand Water Polo Briefs. Swimoutlet,com carries a lot of the designs and countries.
|
.....looks like it
|
My favorite Turbo design is for Brazil water polo
|
this one?

Must say blue with the white stripe is a new one to me and not sure it's quite appropriate for Brazil. (Turbo is now AgonSwim?) |
......and the rear view
.......for Brazil : http://speedocelebration.tumblr.com/image/27547102282

I'm pretty sure turbo and Agon have had some kind of relationship in the past. I think Agon might have been turbo USA first. :confused: |
Turbo
Thanks - will see if I can find which way round it is.
|
Wow! Thanks for posting those!
|
four guys
LOL - I like Brazil better now I see some bums and the white band around the globe makes more sense.
The pic is a bit of a mystery however - why are four guys linked like that? Are they posing for a photo, in which case why is one guy looking downwards? All wear the same maroon water polo caps but we see: One LC suit which probably indicates La Canada High School team from California. Two Brazil suits indicating perhaps some connection with that country. One gown indicating Roseville High School Tigers. |
Re todd post #7
LOL - I'm beginning to wish I hadn't asked.
see http://www.turboswim.com/catchTurboBounce.html This is not dated and Jose Ramiro disassociates himself from it (so it begs the question who posted it?) It seems that Turbo Inc. is dissolved but suits under the Turbo brand name are made by Crotton SA. In turn Agon Sports makes suits under the Agon name (and both companies were apparently Turbo Inc. shareholders). |
ready and waiting
Footnote:
So as not to get everyone confused in so many threads running now in the forum, Louis has wisely taken information about Turbo/AgonSwim products into a separate thread of its own, as you will see. |
kumu post #4
WaterPoloCity seem to have many Turbo w-p suits with countries' insignia including three for Brazil (one of which you know already but two maybe not):
http://shop.waterpolocity.co.uk |
I just got a Turbo Brazil water polo suit like the ones pictured in post # 6, it is great, perfect fit, real nice colors, feels great, looks great, I have worn it for ocean swims and like wearing it around the house.
|
Brasil
:) Excellent (there are some nice prints available and there is yet another - will post if I can find it again amongst so many images)
|
follow up (on right)
Found the guy but not the brand: http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx...3azxo1_500.jpg

Brasil again ( rather like this rear treatment) |
First, thanks very much for the links for the speedo photos. Just a general question, what are some good sites for speedo photos? Thanks!
|
pics
Just putting speedo into Google Images would be a start.
Try speedoaddict.tumblr.com or speedos4U or speedocelebration. Anything you may find can lead on to some unexpected discoveries - in fact just type in speedos whenever you have a site's search box in front of you and see what comes up. (What is worth noting is that a good pic on a blog often carries comments from readers who say they like it and sometimes they in turn are posters of good pics). |
brasil...
.....again for kumu* - and this time from S&R Sport:
http://www.srsport.com/popup_image.php/pID3903 *and maybe for Swimmboy too, to note S&R diamond at left hip. |
re. above
That link seemingly not allowed so it had better be http://www.srsport.com/images/products/SFMBRASIL.jpg
