The same thing happened with Ivetta in 2003. Watching her routine was unbelievable.... it was a performance, and we really have very few people stateside who can compare with that level of entertainment.

and Isaac and Lena are right.. it is hard to overlook anyone who is that good... I am sure Oksana will keep doing her thing and the rest will follow.

Alex, all I can tell you is Tanji's routines seemed to come off stage in 3D.  I mean really crazy.  Mindi and Adela too...Very strong routines.  As the routine special award was not only voted on by judges, it was not solely based on IFBB judging criteria.

Fitness - not aerobics and not sports gymnastics. It is grace and beauty. Read rules. In rules there is an IMAGE, instead of a set 3D.

Alex, we did an interview on video with Oksana which we should have up in a few days. Of course, it is in Russian so you can translate it for us. And she and her husband, married 4 months now (Las Vegas, White Chapel) knew about you!

I know about interview. Boris and Oksana - my friends. I promoter. I wait, all Russian wait...

Interesting to note about her mandatory moves.  I assume you mean the 45 second routine?  That really is a shame.  That said, it would make some sense that her 45 second was marked down. 

Looking forward to seeing everyone again in Arkansas!

Isaac, you keeping us hanging....  ;)

I was told by one of the judges that she had one of the best 45 second routines. I'm not clear on the mandatory moves in the 2 minute routine. Can someone clear this up-do you have to have the mandatories in your 2 minute routine and does it say you have to have a high energy routine?

I'll keep you posted on what's happening with Oksana as soon as the press release is finished. :)

There are no mandatory movements in2 minute routine...only 45 sec...
From the rule book...on the IFBB Pro League site
There are several revisions after the original....Ammendments are found on Pro League website.


45 Second
"1. In Round One (RD1), each competitor is called onstage, individually and in
numerical order, to perform a 45-second fitness routine. Each competitor is
introduced by number, name and country.
2. The competitor must perform six mandatory movements (three strength and
three flexibility), in the following order:
a. Two one-arm pushups done in succession
b. Four high kicks (alternating legs)
c. One straddle hold
d. One full side split
e. One leg extension hold

3. The 45-second routine must be choreographed to one continuous piece of
music (no music changes)."


2 Minute
"1. In Round Three (RD3), each competitor is announced by number, name
and country and is called onstage, in numerical order, to perform an
individual aerobic/dance routine to music of her own choice.
2. The routine has a maximum duration of two minutes. The sound technician
shall keep track of the time and, at the two-minute point, will fade out the
competitor’s music over a period of five seconds.
3. The two-minute routine may be choreographed to one or more pieces of
music (competitor's choice).
4. The routine should include elements of strength, flexibility, dance,
gymnastics, aerobic movements and cardiovascular endurance.
5. Costumes and props may be used; however, the Chief Judge must be
notified, in advance, of the use of props."

Oksana Grishina....16th ???......... is P.D.I. the future of the European girls?

No, to be frank I think the PDI is not the future of anything for anyone.

PS - Please excuse my rudeness I meant to comment earlier, congrats to Julie and Rick Lohre on Julie's 4th placing btw. Very impressive.

CQ,

Gee thanks!!! I spent over 8 weeks dieting and doing cardio so I could press that shutter release and look good in the audience!  LOL.   ;D

Just kidding, Julie really did work hard (just like everyone else did) and we're very happy with her conditioning and placing.  This show was a very big accomplishment for her!

Thanks guys!  I am so excited about the show.  Absolutely amazing to get to stand next to Adela on stage.  Chica you rock! 
Lorie, you time is coming, you just keep getting better at each show and I love the Marylin routine!  I'll hold you to the trail mix and would you believe that I have already searched out some sushi places for after the show.  There will be no more not getting decent food after the show!!!

See you soon!
Julie

Thanks everyone for the kind words!! I had a great time at the show as usual and I have been busy eating and getting ready for my O.F.F. Camps.

Julie, you looked great girl and it was a pleasure to compete with girls I never competed before.  I look forward to see some of the girls at the O.  It will be even better since Jenny Hendershott is going to be there. Be ready to have a great time girls.

Oksana, is going to be just fine. She will be at the Olympia stage too.

God Bless and come to my camps people:)

No one is saying she will place in the top 3 at the Little Rock (although she deserves it in my opinion). She can also receive a special invite, which is up to the IFBB.

Special invite for 17th place?? What about all the other girls ahead of her.....would be a bit 'unfair' if you ask me. NOT, that I wouldn't like to see her on the O stage........but come on. If they got it right the first place, she would maybe already be there.......but what do I know, anyway ;) :-*

How do you know where she will place in her next two shows? She's still the WORLD champion and why punish her for being #26 out of 26 in the order of the lineup? Everyone agrees she was overlooked. (She was 16th, not 17th). The only thing "unfair" was her not being higher at the Europa, but the past is the past.

Thats what I'm saying.......'unfair' at the Europa  ::)
Of course I dont KNOW how she will place at the next shows.......but I just find it weird to be soooo much higher in a couple of weeks, thats all. No need to take it personal, Mr ;) You were not the judge, were ya? Ok then....

And, excuuuuuuse me for getting it wrong by one place....16th sounds a LOT better ;)
