    Agreed with Becca's excitement!! And I should already be in CA that day for a wedding...I need to figure this out!

    I just can't believe I now have to wait a whole 5 months for it to actually happen - painful! But at least I have plenty of other competitions to keep me going in the meantime! Otherwise I think the wait would drive me insane!

    I think he's referring to the world professional standard and smooth championships, which are the ones with actual worldwide recognition. Larinda is referring to the world pro-am championships and the "world" American style championships, which are of interest primarily to people who are in North America.

    Back in the day, USBC used to have one of the four big world championships almost every year (Pro Standard, Pro Latin, Amateur Standard, Amateur Latin). That was before there were any world titles in pro-am or American style.
