Good idea of his therefore to start a Turbo thread
as that should also help sort out some earlier postings of mine.
Having been allowed a bare second to look at his three recent links it seems possible we have the same guy in those as I posted at #95 on speedo pix - and also well received then.
In #87 I have picked up possibly a playing card which might be Turbo Vegas ?
(ie a gambling connection) - and the diver in #97 definitely wears the skulls print*
The Jazzy Skulls seem to be popular and here is one of three guys at the poolside: http://31.media.tumblr.com/3b584b330...s09ao1_400.jpg ( second probably white Turbo but cannot fix an ID on the third in blue)
and on a boat: http://37.media.tumblr.com/63e485760...s09ao1_400.jpg (which might also be what twt picked up from aussiespeedoguy)
and at the beach :

I shall finally add this as a nice pattern which I cannot so far name but is much in the Turbo genre:

*Pirates Treasure also comes with a skull |
sometimes I found pics on website of some swim suits that could be Turbo, looking at the style of colours and designs of some "anonymous" suits. maybe Turbo has made so many designs not available nowadays in their online store. it makes the brand more interesting to investigate
Byron, I'm very surprised and glad, you share a pic of the Jazzy skulls one that I still haven't seen!

the boy seems very happy being in the sunny day and showing his beautiful suit.
I also own this suit, not in the brief style, but in the "super tank" one:

for 2 reasons:
1. the "brief" one is no more in stock nowadays (I've found the water polo version on ebay, but it's more expensive)
2. the super tank brief is bigger so you can see the designs better and it fits like a small brazilian sunga. so when it finally arrived I realize it's also great to wear and the patters (prints) look nice, maybe nicer than the smaller style.
