Q. English divers (like Thomas Daley) always use those colorful sports towels to wipe themselves dry after a jump. My son, a beginning diver, would love to have such a towel also, but I'm unable to find one in Germany. Do you have any idea where I can get one?
A. The towels the divers use are called chamois (pronounced "shammy"). Most good sport shops will have them for sale. Sometimes the pool may even sell them. You should speak with your coach or one of the other divers that has one at the pool where you train and they may be able to let you know where the best shops are to buy a chamois.
