European Aquatics - Artistic Swimming Championships Funchal 2025 Training- Taken on May 31, 2025, Uploaded on June 1, 2025 AND YOU ARE SEEING THEM TODAY....VERY FRESH PHOTOS flikr is NOT QUITE AS FAST AS INSTAGRAM but pretty darn close!!!
set: https://www.flickr.com/photos/193147688 ... 4559895620


photos taken on Madeira island in Portugal...Funchal (Portuguese pronunciation: [fũˈʃal] ⓘ) is the capital, largest city and a municipality in Portugal's Autonomous Region of Madeira, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean. The city has a population of 105,795,[1] making it the sixth largest city in Portugal.
















































-looks like some sort of synchro swimming event was to be held there soon since swim team members are from various countries....some of the the ones in red are a little TURKISH action
The 2025 European Aquatics Artistic Swimming Championships will be held in Funchal, Portugal, from June 2nd to 5th.....so what you saw above are a last minute practice session/rehersal saturday before competition starting today....
i almost always see a minimum 1-day delay with flikr than you would with instagram...probably because these 'pro' type photographers have to upload all of the photos taken that day to a desk top computer and transfer on to flikr as attachments versus with instagram where the cell phone itself is a camera and can transmit it onto the web within a minute or so and its on the instagram worldwide. All of the raw footage/photos from these pro cameras have to be looked at, labeled or placed on an album as its passed on to flikr....I HAVE ACTUALLY SEEN TRIATHLON FOTOS on flikr that evening from the event taken earlier that day...usually triathlons are started at sunup so by early afternoon event is over and there is enough time to upload it to flikr and i get to see the pics that evening BUT ITS RARE to see that but ive experienced it!!!!

EDIT 8 hours after i originally posted...just checked their flikr again and guess what; first day of competition photos are on their https://www.flickr.com/photos/193147688@N05/ [photostream] NO ONE DAY DELAY opening ceremonies and 1st day of competition and medals were awarded:





gorgeous architecture and venue/natatorium with a wall of windows....amazing oval/submarine like look.
venue opened in 2004 '' the Complexo Olimpico de Piscinas da Penteada is an incredibly impressive, sophisticated venue considered to be one of the best in Europe."

JUST POSTED A WEEK AGO...so today i am showing @criscanaria5 Spaniard lives part of the time in my neck of the woods https://www.pixnoy.com/profile/criscanaria5/
nothing like a few videos to show/introduce her to you all & her physique:

https://www.pixnoy.com/post/6737377013105457492031/ [same swimsuit as 1st vid]


most of her posts are videos and mostly leggings and athletic catsuits and i will post some of that in the corresponding threads....this last photo is the 'connection' to her and its that she too is a @bodyenginners model....thats how i came across her...most of what i post doesnt come from totally random or out of nowhere; and thats part of finding pics and searching you have to keep searching the very same links and photos with whatever clues are mentioned and thats how you find stuff...ITS NOT GOING TO LAND TO YOU OUT OF THE SKY...you have to do the homework/legwork to find photos; you are not going to find this gal cold turkey as they say just by searching using google search without some hint or clue as to something you have to follow links if you are on instagram or anywhere else you are searching for that matter that why we have a ton of visitors; guys like me do the search for you and why we have an audience....we just would love to have more posters as members making life easier for the few of us who post plus new posters bring a different perspective and variety


and editing to show you all a destination and video of her:

AHH YES WHY NOT A short video of media day as seen in some of the next photos:
https://www.pixnoy.com/post/6773414156443513154569/


+++++++++++thats enough of the Irish[*] for you for today's fill lets see something else: +++++++++













[*] In the subtropical area where i live we have a university [UM] that has 5 national championships; the Irish were bitter rivals back in the '90s and when we beat them at south bend and the following year they came down to the orange bowl and TO THIS DAY the 'golden domers' suffered their worst defeat ever in their vaunted history; so much so that they decided to cancel the series....and in fact it took over 20 years before the teams ever met again; thats how bitter the notre dame folks took those losses.....and yes i am sure a few veterans of this forum have some knowledge of what i am banting about....HENCE WHY I SAID: ENOUGH OF THE IRISH, lets see something else ....down here we still remember that 'massacre' at the 'orange bowl' a VERY SORE THUMB/subject TO THE folks that cant swallow those defeats to this day....
I've been posting here since 2008 and i have posted very few FIGHTING IRISH swimmers now you know the why
and yet what counts here TODAY is how good looking they are since none of the gals posted were alive back then

[davislove]

i havent been posting the finswimming ones as often lately due to the lack of finding these...so the ones i have are precious enough to 'ration them':













late edit to add: Making waves in the @ZoggsUk Thermal Silver Lined Swimsuits!
https://www.pixnoy.com/post/6741693824277146654556/
[not exactly the body shapes that you are used to seeing me post...]

they make swimwear FOR THE MASSES IN THE UK; yes for women that are a little older and overweight -------------good thing that i rarely post these------or i might end up losing an audience

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
i just posted less than a week ago but i will add some of my regular photos to augment this post:












also i will add that i found [on flikr] California Beauties full sets of pics https://www.flickr.com/photos/calisurfl ... 0325099435 its taking me days and days to go thru the many many gals pictured....i will present a couple of sets now as 'installments'....many more to come so stay tuned

sets range anywhere from less than a dozen photos to multiple dozens....very good for you photo collectors; guaranteed you will have hit a bonanza/find worth while multiple pages of sets on flikr. incredible!!!!

[davislove]

new but 'old style' PIN-UP swimsuited....the car is a '70's type but that swimsuit has the looks of even an earlier '60s style type

so not quite matched up

and to close it out: A 2ND INSTALLMENT OF 'CALIFORNIA BEAUTIES' ON FLIKR by https://www.flickr.com/photos/calisurflife/albums [hes got pages and pages of full sets on flikr; i have only gotten to like a third of it---if you want to make or collect sets of individual gals in their teens and early 20's dressed in these types of bikini and very provocative bathing suits some are actually lingerie which i cant show here this find is heaven....better than any pay-to-view sites....no nudity but i have had to refrain because nipples can be seen...i have had to obscure and liquify a few photos already]

[davislove]

AND THE MAIN REASON I AM POSTING TODAY IS....TO add that 2nd installment of 'california beauties' [4 pages on flikr of 'full sets' for those who love to collect sets of pics] from https://www.flickr.com/photos/calisurflife/albums

[the rest will be in 2 more parts is my guess....i still have more work to go thru it all!!!!!

IN ALL honesty, as hot as these (last) pics maybe to some of you....MY PREFERRED CHOICE is to show that earlier section; the finswim and (swim-racer suits) meets type photos...those are harder to find and source...i have always said that these individual gals in one-piece swimsuits at the beach are what i call 'fillers' as in easy, anyone else can show these types 'a dime-a-dozen' I DID NOT SIGN UP TO THIS FORUM TO SHOW THE GALS ON THE BEACH IN ONE PIECE AND BIKINIS...thats WAY too easy....you guys here on tpowis can source and view those anywhere; YOU DONT need me for that......i am here to show those swim racer suits since most gals dont wear those to the beach

[davislove]

here is that 2nd batch [one more left to go...] regarding california beauties on flikr
by California Beauties https://www.flickr.com/photos/calisurfl ... 0326711174
if you are a collector of full sets this is a cant miss find with 4 pages of albums....took me weeks to collect it all...Au NATUReL/improvised CERTAINLY NOT 'PRO PHOTOGRAPHER set piece SHOOTS' ....WHAT you see is what there is....ENJOY:


+++++++++++i still prefer to post the following which is more my specialty+++++++++++



















here is the classic one-piece not too different from the 'california beauties' BUT its in a whole different context....i just love showing these college swim meets; these are from emory univ smugmug; i will be showing more on a future post

[davislove]

i was going to post in this thread a couple of days from now BUT as soon as i saw this set i figure lets do this add-on to basically (my) yesterday's CAR GRID GIRL POST...i said i was going to go thru their flikr account and i just saw a couple of the grid girls shown yesterday IN BIKINI&SWIMWEAR.....so lets show a number of photos and the source for more:

now that that bonus surprise is out of the way lets move on to the 3RD @ FINAL INSTALLMENT OF 'CALIFORNIA BEAUTIES' as i mentioned on my last 2 posts.....these are from:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/calisurflife/albums/


and we'll close out this presentation with my 'regular stuff' that you all are now so so darn accustomed to as in 'rinse@repeat' for decades now .....
























































today i reversed the order 'the good stuff' was 1st and now the 'fillers for last
by the way my home town holds a yearly 'miami swim week' and thats held in august every year where lots of photographers and world wide models convene on miami beach to 'strut their stuff' and thats what you are seeing for the first 3 dozen or so photos.................

what i call 'the good stuff' is the swim&dive meets; the swim racer suits to the thighs or ankles; generally speaking those are going to be found in smugmugs and flikr where dedicated sports photographers go to the colleges and universities natatoriums (venues) to cover those.....NOT LIKELY TO BE FOUND ON SOCIAL media type links such as IG hence why those photos are harder to find and not a dime-a-dozen. That was my specialty when i came on board here & started a dedicated thread which was merged into the existing thread and hence the name you see today: Swimsuits Sportswear Photos + Swim Meet Competitions
The 'fillers'; well those photos are ubiquitously everywhere in public and you guys dont need me to find those for you....i post them to fill up the post and theres a big audience for those; i personally prefer to spend the time it takes to search and dig out the swim meets which are 'hidden' and i think would go undiscovered otherwise....TRUST ME IT TAKES TIME TO FIND THOSE EVEN THOUGH YOU SEE ME POSTING THEM IN BUNCHES AT A TIME....

[superheroinelinks]

[davislove]

i have a ton of photos so expect a more frequent posting schedule than usual....more like in the 'fillers category' HOWEVER!!! [strong college-aged athletes ] college-aged student athletes those are not really fillers despite wearing one-piece as you all know by now thats my forte; i prefer the thigh-length swim racer 'catsuit'-like suit as in the swim meets.




































ive been 'consumed' with these 'media day' findings on flikr....which are time consuming saving the photos....the way you navigate is to look to see if the photo is 'faved' and if it is then you go to that persons faves and you find lots more photos since nearly all photos are in some album then you check it and its author with more albums and photos of similar interest....you can of course search by topic but its less productive that way but for a novice looking at flikr for the 1st time thats how you start searching it....

swim across america series...no i wouldnt describe those photos like you saw earlier and the one as 'fillers'....fillers are more towards photographer photo shoots and beach or poolside photos....i dont think these gals are 'modeling' -these are official event photos not an arranged photographer photoshoot with multiple takes

[davislove]

lots of 'fillers' today BUT THEY are more of the college-aged competition one piece variety as opposed to the modeling types










































BUT i still prefer to do the swim meets&dive competition ones where they use the catsuit-like thigh high swim racer ones




















....just not enough of these ones; OBVIOUSLY.....so i have to add the 'fillers'

just found these from: 2025 Blue-Green Intrasquad Meet https://uwfphotos.smugmug.com [which i am in the process of going over to eventually post]...you wont find these on social media...only dedicated photographers to a university or affiliated or thru connections; hence why these photos are not as plentiful and harder to get BUT I HAVE ALWAYS SPeCIALIZED IN THESE college meets type pics

[davislove]

I REALLY LIKE WHEN THESE COLLEGES DO THEIR 'MEDIA DAY' TEAM PHOTOSHOOT IN THEIR SWIM RACER SUITS...the thigh-hi 'catsuit'-like ones....very very few shoots like that...there is one more fom a Quebec college that you will see eventually!





















































WHEN YOUR GF IS STRONG ENOUGH TO PICK YOU UP AND 'RESCUE' YOU....I LIKE THAT....most of the time we guys have to lift women up....good to see the roles have reversed FINALLY!

[davislove]

i am finding a lot of university 'media day' photos on flikr....hence why i am back after just posting < (less than symbol) a week ago

MY_GF: (at this age they are easily impressed)

[davislove]

i was 'rationing' these finswim ankle-length swim racer suits photos...but i found a new source...allowing me to show more of these...i have always specialized in looking for and finding these pics ever since these suits were banned for regular swimming...they are allowed for apnea, finswim, triathlons, and open water swimming...so those are the only sports that allow the ankle length ones; also in some weird way these suits resemble gym-type athletic catsuits and so these photos will almost always bring more clicks than your basic one-piece swimsuits and you all here on TPOWIS tend to favor them as well:

























UNFORTUNATELY you will never see these on the public beach unless its an organized open-water swim...probably another reason why these photos are more popular...just the lack of them in the public domain creates curiousity&intrigue BEFORE I LANDED HERE WITH TPOWIS I HAVE ALWAYS SEARCHED for these...and posted these VERY successfully at my previous now defunct forum
the 'with a view ones' are: @auraskypool.dubai~World’s highest 360° infinity pool Swim in the sky at AURA By @sunsethospitalitygroup



AHH yes if theres GIRLWATCHING going on from fellow swim meet competitors going on at poolside....
then i think these photos merit being shown here on TPOWIS so our members too get to see and make their judgements as well:

you can tell from the angle that hes not watching the gal in the picture...BUT NO DOUBT HES WATCHING ANOTHER BABE on the starting block

[davislove]

''ONLY HOT GIRLS ARE ALLOWED TO BE POSTED TODAY' in this category:






If thats the case i think this mini post today 'aces' that prerequisite......i still would have preferred to do a full regular post BUT i decided to go along with our moderator's way of posting to break my tendencies and do this [very very short for content] post

edit to add a fellow older competitor speaking to a PAIR OF THESE GALS; as they all finish the swim PROVING WHY i said they are "HOT'':


on a total aside note; off-topic unrelated....HOW DO YOU IMPRESS WOMEN IN THE EARLY 1960'S..... with a brand new RIDE just like today.....EXCEPT this Lincoln limo would become infamous ...its in a museum in Michigan.....I TOO drive a lincoln except mines is 43 years 'younger' than this 1961 continental

[davislove]

i knew that posting just a hand-full of pics wasnt going to work for me...(not when you have a few of hundred saved and getting more constantly)
''GOOD STUFF" EARLY......followed by more of the 'fillers' later























































































































-the university/college 'media day' shoots may still be what i call 'fillers' since they are wearing the traditional -one-piece BUT remember these gals are the same ones that appear in the swim competition/meets so they may be classified as 'fillers' now; BUT THE VERY ,VERY HIGH END/TOP NOTCH of that spectrum>>>FOR SURE -college aged babes; are exactly what this forum's audience wants to see-expect lots more 'media day' photoshoots, very popular on flikr most of them in sets of 100+ pics depicting the entire swim squad members or water polo for that university or college team for that school year///

[davislove]

now this is the type of sailing i like to do with MY_GF in tow....
