1996 NABBA UNIVERSE: THE WOMEN - PREJUDGING & SHOW.

We don't know how they do it, but the NABBA Universe simply gets better year by year.

In the Women's Physique New Zealand scooped the pool winning both classes. Billie Kaine got straight firsts from all the judges for her perfect score, and she also beat her countrywoman Siobhan O'Neill for the overall title.

The Women's Figure was a battle and a half. Pina Theodoridis of Australia (the Southern Hemisphere breeds fabulous women!!) easily won the Short Class from Brigitte Crepieux of France and she also won the Overall from Susana Palma, the Class One winner from Spain.
Pina was faultless in all areas and is the greatest Figure bodybuilder ever produced by Australia.

Running time: 90 mins

	1996 NABBA Universe: The Men - Prejudging   In the Men's Prejudging tape, we present the Round 1 comparisons from every class, the key comparisons from Round 3, and the posing routines of all the non finalists. The top 6 finalists in each class pose in the Show DVD, together with the posedowns and awards. The NABBA Universe is an awesome event each year, with the standard in Birmingham in 1996 being higher than ever. Italian superstar FEDERICO FOCHERINI took out the Overall Amateur Mr Universe title from SERGE DESSEL, BILLY JONES and JASON CORRICK. GMV-232DVD
	1996 NABBA Universe: The Men - The Show   The Men's Amateur Classes were - in a word - fantastic. You'll see for yourself, but it wouldn't have been easy to be a judge! Men's Class 4 was overwhelmed by Jason Corrick of the UK, with Australia's Quinn Lay in second. Men's Class 3 was Bill Jones from that all-time favourite poser Ramsford Smith. Men's Class 2 was Serge Dessel of France (who also won the 1996 NABBA Worlds), and Men's Class 1 was a whopping battle between first, second and third. Federico Focherini from Italy eventually won the class, with Russian Sergei Ogorodnikov in second and a disappointed Dayo Audi in third. Only a point separated second and third, it was that close!! Overall Amateur Mr Universe went to Federico Focherini. The Men's Professional Class was the biggest we have seen for some time with 12 competitors. At last "The Dinosaur" - Shaun Davis's dream came true. GMV-233DVD.
