It's got nothing to do with "my team"...it's got everything to do with individual promoters who obviously weren't making any money but losing a substancial amount...

If there was a market for these shows, they would still be on the schedule...

Sad, but true....the ifbb Pro-Circus this year is not coming to europe..... :-\ so the PDI filled that "Vacuum"....

Normally the PDI-Event in Norway is between 3 men (Rodney, Sami, Andreas,..)
From Germany we have a second PDI Pro (Carsten Werner). I know him for several Years (gym owner in Koblenz/Germany). He`s a guy who always be in real-hard-shape. But for his 6 "1" frame le lacks to much muscle mass (in my opion) to be successfull in a Pro event. But, just wait and see.....
Andreas Frey is one of the stronger PDI-Athletes, but in the last 1-2 Years i`m not seeing him making real significant Progress (but hope he will suprise me this time ?). If i would give a tip, i will vote for Sami.

Speaking on cancelling shows, can Sami or anyone formally confirm that the PDI show scheduled for October in Barbados has been cancelled? It was being spammed furiously all over this board months ago. I am fairly sure it has been cancelled, as no one down here has heard a peep about it, but confirmation would be nice plz anyone...

Welcome to Norway then, Sami.
I live here now for the time being. Not in Oslo, the city you are going to.
It's cold in Norway now so bring warm clothes with you.

Best of luck to you, in the competition

If the competition in Norway is not sanctioned by the PDI, "is it still a competition ?", or just a show event and not sanctioned by any other BB-Organization ? Where are the judges coming from ? A lot of open questions....
