Just wanted to give everyone a heads up in regards to the host hotel location ...... I am from the area and I must say that if your a competitor I just want to inform you that the host hotel is not close to the venue. I think somewhere I read that they say its only 6 miles from the hotel .... thats definitely not true. The hotel is located on W. Red Oak Lane in White Plains ( off of rt. 287 north ), and the show is in Tarrytown which in my estimation has to be at least 12 miles ( actually its 11 miles ...I did a mapquest on it ) Not sure how the competitors plan on getting to the venue, but I would reserve a cab for saturday as soon as I check into to the host hotel on either thursday or friday. Just so you know, White Plains can get alittle crazy on the weekend with traffic.
Oh and if your driving to the venue .... the parking sucks around there .... I would advise you to get there early to get a spot, that is if you can find one ..... its an old historical little town.

Just wanted to give all the competitors and anyone else who plans on satying at the host hotel a heads up .....  Have a safe flight to NY .....

I've asked for an updated competitor list and will post as soon as I receive it.

One thing that should be interesting is Kevin from Jan Tana (many of you know him as he is the man when it comes to applying tans) will open the IFBB portion of the show with "The artistry of airbrushing" routine with Valerie Waugaman.

What that is, I haven't a clue but like I said it should be interesting.  ;D

Did Silvia Matta move into the figure category from bodybuilding?  Her name appears in figure on your second list.  I competed against her in the lightweight division at the World Championships.  However, she is huge now and I can't imagine her being a figure competitor. 

Good luck to all the girls!

Alex, a bit to hard and muscular ( imo)!

Irina looks really great, but for todays figure...she will be marked down.

Russians need to come in a bit "softer". She has the lines, look, ect...let's see where she lands!

i agree she was alittle hard, altough softer than in pittsburgh and i easily had her atleast in the secod callout. out of top 15? again? just based on her shape, symmetry, structure she should've been somewhere at the top. she was even better than in pittsburgh. something is not right here.
also i though zhanna rotar could've placed better. jeanette freed was clearly the best the girl on stage. i understand that girls need to be softer but arent they supposed to look like they atleast lift weights?

i agree with you. not to take anything from felicia, but i always trained to try to be more like jeanette, zhanna and especially irina, i love her physique and i am not the only one. like i said before you should've seen how popular the girl was at ny pro. i seen results from jr. nationals and the girls that looked like they lift weights were winning and one week later girls that resemble that look were beaten by bikini models. kinda sends the wrong message.
i know zhanna is probably reading this since she is on this board. can we please have your opinion about what went on and why you, irina and arina placed so low?

Isaac... It's just like when I bet on the dogs and ponies, I can always pick the winner but can never seem to string 3 together for the Trifecta.  But still without seeing any of them, that was a pretty damn good guess... had I been there, trust me I would have been on the money with my picks.
