My first spandex-aware Olympics was 1992 in Albertville, France. Being all of eleven years old then, I wasn’t squeezing myself yet, but I already knew I enjoyed watching the Olympics for the men in those tight little suits, whether it was luge, skiing, or speedskating. I have straight buddies tell me they also appreciate the male physique in skinsuits, but most of the readers of this blog probably enjoy it on another level.

Skeleton sledding
(the sledder says they “skin it to win it” — meaning that they wear nothing under the skinsuit)

Bobsledding

Bjorn is a Swedish decathlete. You can see more of him here on this Flickr set. (Thanks to Tottyworld for those pics.)

A nice set of pictures on Outsports.

Usain Bolt set a new world record in the 100 meter sprint. Couldn’t have done it without spandex.

Here’s a cute track cyclist who packs it in his skinsuit. See his website for pictures. [via tottyworld]

Also, Pascal Behrenbruch’s website (in German).

You can see above why this picture makes it around the groups and galleries. But you probably wonder who these people are. For once we know: see Jared Lawrence’s athlete website.

Note: I’d like to rub my face in that.
