Vince...I don't think your Vacuum pose will surpass that of Zane, or, humbly, mine either.

But who am I to say?

Love to see such quality return to bb

........is Melvin the man to be our new, standard torch-bearer???

I've gone beyond that physique.  Next show I do, I'll most likely win.  Third times the charm and I'll be unleashing the nastiest vacuum pose ever on the planet.

Weren't you supposed to bring Menzer-like conditioning to the Mr. Getbig II?  ::)

Why the hell are you shooting these slow mo pictures for while I'm in between hitting a pose for????


Well, Melvin, you make me smile with your posing. You copy some of the champs and before striking poses do all those preparation movements. They add nothing to your presentation. Or haven't you figured out that the reason many did your movements was to make people look at their muscles in movement. In your case you should hit the pose immediately and not do all that fancy stuff.

Haven't you noticed that almost all your threads end up the same way!

Impossible, Goodrums sexual preferences automatically removes him from the process of evolution. He will never be as big nor defined.

Melvin must be sore at all the jibes I have posted about him. The Mr Canada in 1970 was held in British Columbia for the first time. Usually the contest is in Montreal or Toronto. I was lucky because only Philippe Alfani came from the eastern provinces. No one came from Ontario. So the title was a soft one but it was still the Mr Canada IFBB. Unlike many other countries such as Australia there is an overall winner and not many other organizations running the same title. So it means something to win it. Paul Dillett didn't win Mr Canada because he was disqualified for using drugs. That shows how hard it is to win the title.

In 1970 there was a Mr Pacific Northwest and anyone from the bordering states could compete but not many did and I won that, too. Sort of an international title but hardly significant because no one of note came from Alaska or Washington State.

There was a good lineup and Ken Rivard looked big and won best arms, chest, and back. He got 5 first place votes from the 13 judges. I got 8 votes so it was close. I won best legs and best poser. Walter Milner won best abs and most muscular. We called Walter "Cuts". He was a nice kid from Manitoba, I believe. He went on to win Mr Canada years later. John Mikl was the best junior and went on to become the stage star Thor after winning the Mr Canada title.

1. Vince Basile
2. Ken Rivard
3. Phillipe Alfani
4. Walter Milner
5. John Mikl

I think those are the placings. I will see if I can find some photos of the other lads. Rivard had the best upper body in the show by far. He was let down by very average legs. He hardly posed well and didn't even have a tan. I guess he thought the title was in the bag.

I competed in the Canadian Arm Wrestling championship that night and came second to my mate Big Jim Forsythe.

I was told by Dr Walzack that I could win the Mr Universe in 6 months if I used steroids and moved to Las Angeles. I never took up his offer.

I emigrated to Australia in Jan 71 to get a job and raise a family and have been here ever since.  I taught PE in high school for 10 years and also bought a gym in August 1971 that we have expanded and still own.

Dude!

I didn;t read this whole post, but I knew Walcsk and Walter Milner was a great bb with an absolutely freaky Most Muscular.

If Vince did beat him, that says something.

Like I said...I did not read the whole post.

The Beef  agrees with this. Walter Milner was in SA in 75 for the Universe for canad. The Beef does not think Milner was very old in 75.
