Default Turbo Thread

Well, in this thread I want to talk about my favorite swimsuit brand.

I'm sure everyone here has a favourite (or more) brand. For me, Turbo has the best designs and and I specially love how they differenciate water polo briefs from swim briefs using the same designs for both styles. they also make swimming "tank" trunks that look similar to brazilian sungas, drag shorts, racing suits, and custome made suits for water polo teams.
I've bought some suits and they really look good. the brand is from Spain but I always use the UK online shop, where you can see which products are in stock.
they always help you with the purchase if you have questions.
Maybe you would disagree with me. if so please tell me why or why not.

There are some nice original designs:

http://www.turboswimwear.co.uk/turbo...-trunks-green/

http://www.turboswimwear.co.uk/turbo...imming-trunks/ (my favourite)

http://www.turboswimwear.co.uk/turbo...-trunks-black/

http://www.turboswimwear.co.uk/turbo...imming-trunks/

and so many more, from different countries and teams. they also make trunks without designs. sadly, not all suits are always in stock and sometimes you have to wait a long time to get some "made to order" products.

well, hope to read some opinions. hope to find some more Turbo fans like me!

I am with you. I love my Turbo suits. I would buy all of them. The hard part is choosing.

Dammit - I am robbed of those three links as computer security takes them away as coming from a dangerous website connection.
Has anyone experienced that one as implanting viruses or as a source of hacking or phishing?

Thumbs up Turbos

I haven't had any problem with those sites affecting my computer or IPad. I have a couple of Turbos which I absolutely love. The fit, comfort, performance, and the way it makes me feel are just great. I'm with you thisweirdthing1985.

OK - getting a bit complicated and it seems that what I keep calling Halloween (and I might have picked that up from SwimOutlet) is Jazzy Skulls
and is twt's favourite Turbo suit ( and anyway I would agree with all that's been said as it's an excellent product and their range of prints quite amazing).
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 :
http://38.media.tumblr.com/602b719ca...2aeo1_1280.jpg


I shall finally add this as a nice pattern which I cannot so far name but is much in the Turbo genre:
http://38.media.tumblr.com/fdc7d833a...s09ao1_400.jpg

*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!
this one

http://31.media.tumblr.com/3b584b330...s09ao1_400.jpg

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:

http://cdn2.bigcommerce.com/server53...00.600.jpg?c=2

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.

Default good info....

thanks - and if I remember my Harry Potter correctly was he not riding a Turbo2000 broomstick when playing Quidditch?
(and at a UK university some muggles have actually put together a quidditch team I believe)
