JMarkSnow2012 387 Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 And then, will they rip it apart for the Closing? Or perhaps build another stage for Closing (Like London had another stage layout for the Closing)? ... From what I remember of the pics of the tunnels when they were being laid out, they were probably 8'-10' wide, so I'm sure the beams over those were sturdy enough to support turf PLUS the machinery necessary to layout/remove the turf. So I hope quite strong. Sorry, what I meant was the layers of soil, gravel, sand etc. beneath the turf which make the pitch good to play on, and which would need to be protected from too much compression etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phandrosis 171 Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 The JOC released the opening ceremony outfits for Team Japan. The red jacket ones are for the ceremony while the pinstripes are for travel. http://www.joc.or.jp/photo/photo_detail.html?vol_id=7583&photo_no=photo1_1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phandrosis 171 Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 If you recognize the look, it's not far off from 2012. If it works don't fix it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ikarus360 602 Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 Its almost the same except for the tie. Both Japan and Korea are using very classy outfits. Though I wonder if those are also Zika proof? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oooswald 35 Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 That's the Paralympic OC uniform! Not a fan of the blazer, but I loved the male T-shirt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
neneu10 327 Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Yep, it's for Paralympic ceremony http://globoesporte.globo.com/paralimpiadas/noticia/2016/06/floresta-da-tijuca-inspira-uniforme-das-cerimonias-paralimpicas-da-rio-2016.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TeamBlakeUSA 24 Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 I Wonder What Will The Olympic OC Uniforms Look Like. I Guess We'll Find Out Soon. It'll Probably Be Different From The Paralympic Uniforms. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
baron-pierreIV 1693 Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 It doesn't look like those were even tested for the TV cameras. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

brasilolimpico 31 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 So far it does not give to know what the directors intend with this black area and also with white. Much mystery, I'm anxious. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phandrosis 171 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 For some reason it looks like there might be a tunnel here: Maybe the athletes will come out of here? Seems like it will bottle neck if that's the case though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bezzi 249 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 And no one knows the map of copacabana, not even brazilians. The best reference is the sidewalk pattern. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GalileoGrx 0 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Hi everyone!!! this is my first post but i´ve been following this forum since 2004... The green stage looks like "Favelas"... don't you think? haha i love this times.. - Favelas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yoshi 352 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 I don't know why it's so jagged. It's so at odds with everything Rio has designed so far - looks more suited to London's image. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ikarus360 602 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Lets wait and see. I'm sure there must be a reason behind it. Maybe the design will change as the ceremony moves on or something. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Baptista 27 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Such a remote comparison. What does it achieve in terms of a dynamic show? Yes, you are right...I m just wondering about what kind of surprises (great surprises I hope) Rio will show us during the OC... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
