1987 SABBA Adelaide Physique Classic: The Show

This is a Classic South Australian Contest from the ’80’s – Featuring Jeff Davies – the Men’s Open Winner, Mike Buder, Kim Tanska, Paul Anderton, Colin McLean, Steve Taylor, Roy Visser, Kim Knott, Julie Dunn and many, many more.

This contest is famous for a number of reasons. The first (and most important) is that it was the first bodybuilding contest that dual Natural Ms.Olympia winner Kim Knott ever competed in; and the second reason – it was the first bodybuilding contest that Tina ever attended!!

Irene Nickole was the star guest poser. This video presents the complete evening show.

Kim Knott won her class and went on to place 3rd in the Australia – Women’s Physique Class a few weeks later. Then on to the Universe!  Mike Buder and Steve Taylor in later years went on to represent South Australia at the NABBA Universe, as did Kim Knott in 1987 and 1988.
