how many canadians do we have competing in this event?

Ron is doing it..

Big shout out for Ron Partlow. Many would just give up after coming close to pro status so often. But he is tenacious and never quits. Huge props.

Ron is an uncrowned pro, and hope that will be changed to crowned this weekend.

Zoa Lindsay and Melody Spetko are both entered right off of Nationals.
Zoa placed second in an INSANE heavyweight class (by One Flipping point) and was shockingly NOT awarded a procard (I guess they CBBF was too busy handing out flipping bikini cards the week prior)
Melody placed first in Masters and 4th in Heavy... and is super flipping ripped and looking for a Procard...

Good luck to all our Canadian competitors there.

I know of Ron Partlow, Mike MacLeod, Jody Wald, & Jeanne Lankowski.

I will talk to Ron & Mike after the pre-judging on Friday night, and report their thougts on how things went.

no shit. i looked at last years nationals in quebec and they gave out 7 pro cards. yet this year they give out 3??? something is drastically wrong with that senerio.

that or maybe the CBBf cant afford to give out more pro cards this year when the OPA is suing them for 1.8million dollars.

good luck to all canadians!

Oh yeah and there is Jamie Galloway who placed 4th figures short at Nationals and won the arnold amature (she's from winnipeg, thats how I know she's going) and a bunch of figures chicks from Canada, but I don't follow that as closely as I should..

(not all canadians but here's some womens numbers)
40 female bb in open class
30 female bb in masters
Figure Open - 110
Figure Over 35 - 65
Bikini Open - 25
Bikini Over 35 - 10

This has become a large and very competitive event, since it is open to Canadian, U.S. and Mexican citizens. And the last few years, some of the Mexican athletes have done really well.

I wish everyone the best.
