Joe Doyle the Swim God

Ohio State Senior Joe Doyle has made -- ahem -- a splash! (sorry) with gay bloggers lately. Can't imagine why (I think I'm gonna faint...). http://wetspeedos.blogspot.com/2007/11/joe-doyle-god.html

Trey Cruz has a short piece on him this month here.

The rest of these images have been collected from a number of different swim fan blogs. I have a feeling some of these pictures are by former Flickr athletic photographer CulverPC, but I'm not positive. His photo archives are a marvel, as I've mentioned before., so please go visit in any case.

A few of these pix are on the small side, but I've posted the largest ones of each I can find.














How Tiny is Your Speedo #3

Guys have become so obsessed with shrinking the waistline on speedos that they have even taken to creating tiny where none existed. Witness these two recent examples of Photoshop manipulation of widely circulated swimming images by bloggers. Even leggings have shrinking waistlines these days.




How Tiny is Your Speedo #2

I say, thank the Japanese for inventing the tiny speedo. More to come....













How Tiny is Your Speedo

The Japanese were the first to explore the ever shrinking speedo, in lifeguard competitions, triathlons, and in the pool. Here are a few examples.

To see the effect their tiny, low-slung speedos have had on competition swimmers in Europe and the Americas already, see the next post above this one.

Red Suited Aussie God from William

While on Thanksgiving break, I've been sorting through my folders, building sets, creating files for speedo colors, waterpolo players and various swimming celebrities.

Here's a man who may not even know he is a celebrity, but this first photo has been all over the speedo and gay blogosphere in the past few months. And I've just found a couple more from the same sequence. These images were taken by Australia's William.

Adjusting in Public

Guys do the most amazing things with their speedos in public, mostly unconsciously, some subtle, some not so. Most of these images have been in wide circulation on swimming, speedo and gay blogs all over the web for some time, but it seemed like fun to start posting sets of these photos here. More to come soon. Enjoy.

Two Hairy Guys for PJ

Not all swimmers shave for meets. In fact, it appears to be some kind of coolness for top swimmers to show up for meets these days with a three-day-old beard. I'll post some more examples later. Believe these images were taken professionally by CulverPC, who has an amazing archive of large format athletic photos on Flickr. Enjoy.
