A nice speedo is spoiled as shield of Italy should not be centered but on white panel at the front - and as for the rear, this appears to be blue when it should be green.

Interesting blue suit - quicker relief at centre is possible no doubt - but what
space is available to store anything at left ?

[Minimalist75]

Probably enough space for a key.

[Byron]

Yep, that must be the answer as such a brief suit would accommodate very little (and would spoil the line anyway).

Nice pic here also of a young wet swimmer which I'm not sure where to post - so I'll raise another question :

Is he wearing a Turbo ? - logo is not at all clear but I think I see a T.
As for the rear only DA of the lettering is visible, which at first suggests CANADA but I believe that to be wrong - does anybody from California
have a better answer ?

[Byron]

Re. lack of letters to read in pic above of the ?Turbo suit I think all is explained here: http://24.media.tumblr.com/765bc57cd...6ymro1_500.jpg

Are we talking about the Lamorinda Water Polo Club?

I called the first guy a swimmer because of the goggles.
The question is is the guy in the second pic the same one?
Might be but the photography is different in each case.
In the second I want to know what is within the O and that
could well be a water polo ball.
The w.p. picture gallery in your link is not much use however
as the team there is in totally different blue speedos printed
as "Cal".
Lamorinda appears to be a prosperous neighbourhood full of
swim clubs and country clubs and teams of many names.
Hence my appeal to CA members - but no response .

Lamorinda is an amalgamation of three communities in this area of California; about 15 miles from me (Clayton) in the East Bay of San Francisco - Lafayette, Moraga and Orinda - and yes, considered to be affluent communities. Does that help?

[Byron]

Yes, thanks (but any pic you can find of a club/team in action in their speedos somewhere in that neighborhood would be useful confirmation)

[Crail]

Byron, I've searched and was unable to find a pic that would confirm that my reply was on the mark and for health reasons I am unable to get there to take pics.
