2025 Cali Open at Orange Kettlebell Club

The last month has been as busy as ever, with multiple visits to Wisconsin to monitor kettlebell production, working on some secret projects that will be announced very soon, and a special visit to Orange Kettlebell Club for the IKO Cali Open; their last competition for an undetermined length of time as they closed the doors to their Bay Area namesake gym and "put a bookmark" in Orange Kettlebell Club as we've known it. 

Before Pro Kettlebell, we were Seattle Kettlebell Club, and before we were the notorious Seattle Kettlebell Club, we were a tiny posse of noobies at a Cali Open in 2014, getting naked to make weight, dropping kettlebells at the hand-switch, and being late to the platform (we miss you, Adrian) as we walked amongst international kettlebell giants at that event.

Orange Kettlebell Club: Thank you for your years of hosting inspiring events, fostering community, and setting a standard of excellence in the kettlebell competition world.

P.S. Regarding the photos above, I judged quite a few sets so was unable to grab photos of every lifter, and for that, I am so sorry! - Amber
