WSM 1996 (Mauritius) 19-22 & 26-29 Sept 1996.

This comp had Derek Boyer, Bill Lyndon, Nathan Jones (all from Oz). Also Magnusson, Forbes Cowan (Scotland's best ever), Riki Kiri etc.

Unfortunately, I lost the last line on a couple of pages...and you have to rotate it to read it! Well worth a read though.

I missed this when you first posted it !
Good article James - scanned from your own collection?
Really interesting to see what weights were getting used and what events.
Heartening to me that I am doing some of these weights now, whereas at the time I watched it, I would never have thought that I would be doing this now.
Cheers!

Yes, from my collection. I have a few more to scan in...covering strongman comps that have happened in Oz.

And also some good throwing article from Jim McGoldrick which I think you might like.
