Anybody else think they would have been better off allowing the Classic Physique guys to stick with traditional thongs? No other class, women or the or the other men’s classes are regimented like that (revenue opportunity?). They probably wanted an obvious distinction from Men’s Open but it reduces the excitement quotient and tends to conceal glutes and leg tie-ins.
-
Classic physique should have classic draws, circa 40's - early 80's. That being said, they should allow them to pick different classic colors.
It does bring up an interesting question, which bodybuilders started the smaller thong snowball? Looking over some Olympia pics, 83 or 84, you really start to see the suits starting to creep up.

everyone should wear black for the judging, they can wear their glittery thongs for the fags who come for the night show if they like

You have studied the history. How about Roy Callendar 1984?

Yeah, he was definitely one of the forerunners, I think 84 is the year you definitely see the change in cut. They need to define the what they think is the classic era. If it includes through the 80's, early 90's, then perhaps it should be competitions choice, with the stipulation that it it includes reasonable crotch and glute coverage (the latter especially, I think that causes the most trouble for viewers).

“Crotch and glute coverage” would be touchy on how they would write it up and police it. And the wrong schmoes might sign up to do the inspections at weigh-in, etc.

hahaha imagine the job description on the advert.
Person required to manage and maintain decency of competitors through the thorough inspection of posing trunks ensuring privates are fully concealed and rear ends are covered by a minimum of 75%

Imagine sending in your résumé’s Objectives Statement on why you personally have the skill set and passion to do the crotch and glute inspections. And I would not want to be the HR person assigned to interview that lineup of job candidates.

There's a few candidates on this board who would be eager to do that job for free. !!

My advice to us them would be to stress their own competitive background, their concern for the image of the sport, and their discrete professionalism during the thong evaluations that the official policies mandate.

Affeman, Royalty, King Jizzo, and DJ dick shelf come to mind.

But if interested, Royalty should not present his 1980 semen evaluations as a qualification.

Glutes do not matter in Classic. They were even intentionally fully covered by the original posing shorts/trunks

They definitely matter, every top guy has to have peeled glutes on display.

pretty much this
Judges these days are always waiting for competitors to turn around , they think glue condition means oveal condition
Guys these days have ripped glutes and bloated striation free delts and pecs

Assuming it's IFFBB classic then no, they don't matter at all. They are even banned from hiking up their trunks to show their glutes and 3/4 of their glutes must be covered as a minimum. People have just been conditioned to think they matter cos of open and 212s.

You are pleased to announce that you got the thong inspector job at Open weigh-in. We can count on you to police the situation in line with policy. But good question raised above on Bumstead. Where were you?

Nonsense, what planet are you on, Nibru?

We all know they dont stick to their own rules and standards
-
Because the judges want to see ripped glutes in Classic, top 2 asses are shredded, I should get this job no homo.
-
Of course glute shreds are judged. It's probably the single most important thing to have in classic and I don't even follow it at all but have picked this up anyway. This should be obvious ???
BB is gay but different colored trunks makes it even more so. Hey, look at my crotch area.

hahaha so why bring it up
FFS mate

This thread needs some ungaying...

If discussing posing trunks is gay, I’m flaming!!!

Fair point. Judging should be unbiased, but we know it aint.
They also aren't allowed to pad or stuff their trunks either. Wonder why that even matters. Bodybuilding really is the ghey!

You seem to know alot about posing trunks.
Bodybuilding is hard, try a show.

>:(. Booster Briefs were available in the 70's. A classic for classic physique. That's it, we need a complete over-hall of the posing strap system! -

Of course the bulge matters, there's just no way Dugdale never regretted not boosting the size, that he got onstage like that is hard to understand. Guys are still self conscious, or should be :D
Who would wear booster briefs, if someone who wanted sex, you'd have to feel like a moron undressing.

Somebody could have told Mike Sommerfeld and Wesley Vissers.
