 Poster: A snowHead

miranda, I agree, Hannah Teeter is just trying too hard to titilate whereas LV is all natural and sporty apart from the high heeled thing - possibly a send up of herself. Anyway, this thread was purely about preparation for the season ahead and a study of how the world's best goes about her dry land training.
You can see the development of her shoulders and back in this one:
Don't think there's any question about her being taken seriously - a cabinet full of gold medals and crystal globes sorts that. Hannah on the other hand...

It says "get 'em off". They should do it while they can, one day we'll pay them to keep 'em on.

Wasn't it ever thus? Sex sells and women in the fame game have always got their kit off. The difference these days is the increased spending power of women and openly gay men means you've got sportsmen, actors and male celebrities doing it too - just do a google image search on "cosmopolitan centrefolds"...
The problem these days is the photoshopping and the unrealistic body shapes, impossible facial features and eternal youth that people are aspiring to as a result of it.

Anyway, sorry to derail the thread. Lindsey does look amazing and I will be using her balance techniques as inspiration when I start rehab from a knee injury. I'm sure once I can do a handstand, I will look exactly like her on the piste.

Bode Swiller, perhaps Wayne should use that handstand photo for his piece on the effects of light and shade on the perception of shape.

Yes, and from a photographic point of view they could have got the horizon level.

Wayne, Hmm think you might have gone a bit too far there, also the shadows on her body now go the wrong way

Wayne, you have too much time on your hands (although I suppose thinking about you doing all this photoshop stuff is preferable to thinking about what else you might be doing with your hands whilst looking at photos of Linsdey Vonn in a bikini).

miranda,
I am VERY practiced at photoshop - have to be in this job as I use it all the time.
The pic above took less than 5 mins.

I'm with Megamum; it's great to see athletic female bodies promoted for admiration. Such a healthier model for young girls to look up to and strive to emulate than the silicone laden anorexic skin and bone bean poles. There was a time when I was coaching that we would lose way too many young female racers when they hit about 13-15 years of age, because sports were not perceived as "feminine". Now tell me guys, what's not feminine about the ladies in this thread? So glad those silly ideas of yesteryear are fading, and kudos to these ladies for helping the process along.

Assuming you aren't saying this entirely tongue-in-cheek, I rather wholeheartedly agree. So long as the message is not just that even elite athletes have flesh and wobbly bits (so it's acceptable, right?) but that kids, especially girls, can have fun doing sport. Fit doesn't necessarily mean modelesque, it can mean toned, honed and healthy for life.
