2006 NABBA World Championships: Men – Show

Staged at the Helix Centre, on June 10th, this was the first ever World Championships held in Dublin, Rep. of Ireland. The sold out event reached a new level of excitement. All classes were keenly contested in a very even competition. All photos are by Tina Gallasch.

The Men’s Show DVD contains the complete posing routines from the top 6 men in each class at the finals plus the overall posedown and all of the awards.

Highlights include BILLY BOURNE of the Republic of Ireland taking the overall crown of Mr. World, and BERNIE COOPER taking the Over 50 Masters title.

Others to greatly impress were Junior winner DAMIAN CLOETE with his 20” arms and JARI SALMENAHO winning the Over 40 Masters.
