Asian-Pacific Heritage Month

[87fg]

Asian-Pacific Heritage Month celebrates Asian history and their contributions to the US and throughout the diaspora. Here I would just like to celebrate with some Asian athletes I like. Can you name them all? Karma to who gets the right answers.

What a shame she's done competing after 2003.  She had potential to be solid pro.  Damn NPC and its politics.

Karma for you, she was awesome.

Lori Okami is my final answer.  I think she competed in the 1980's.

Correct and k+. This was 1986.

Wish more videos and pictures existed of Lori Okami back when she competed, which would have occurred when I was very young in the mid 80s. Great gifs street fighter!    And also what 1986 contest was that video from?

As you can see an amazing line-up. The contest was on ESPN. Routines of the top competitors from each class plus lightweight, middleweight, heavyweight, and overall posedowns. I was eleven when I recorded it. One of my favorites but it was recorded over when I left the tape in the VCR. A few years back a woman was posting posing videos on youtube and 320x240 clips from this contest. Her channel was taken down before I got them all. There was also a company advertising a DVD of the show but my understanding is that it is not available anymore.
