Around 50 athletes from Germany, Latvia, Ukraine and the Czech Republic registered for about 70 flights.<\/p>\n<section>\n<h2>An open format for new and experienced lifters<\/h2>\n<p>On Saturday at 10 a.m., BVDKS President Vadim Sichwardt and Kettle Bears President Karsten Bollert opened the competition. Participants could freely choose kettlebell weights and time limits: from five minutes up to the half marathon. This made it easier to get started and gave experienced lifters the opportunity to try out new performance classes.<\/p>\n<p>Inclusion athletes Jewgenij Seip and Jerry Berend delivered strong performances. Five children also competed.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section>\n<h2>Many hands behind the scenes<\/h2>\n<p>On Friday, the SJC Berlin-Buch youth club helped set up the hall. Kettlebells, platforms and other competition equipment had to be moved.<\/p>\n<p>Eva Classen and Karsten Bollert ran the secretariat, and Olivia Rasigraf coordinated the judges. G\u00fcnther Bauch hosted and even completed a half marathon himself in the penultimate flight. DJ Stefan C. Maus provided the music; food and drinks were also organised.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section>\n<h2>A joint finish<\/h2>\n<p>After the competition, participants met at a nearby pizzeria. Many also took the opportunity to explore Berlin.<\/p>\n<p>The Berlin Kettle Bears would like to thank all athletes and volunteers and look forward to the next edition.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"rpt-meta\">Report: Andre Baudach<\/p>\n<section>\n<h2>Images for this post<\/h2>\n<div class=\"rpt-gallery\">\n<div class=\"rpt-track\" id=\"rpt-track\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-label=\"Image gallery\">\n<figure class=\"rpt-slide\"><img class=\"lazyload\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%272048%27%20height%3D%27824%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%202048%20824%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%272048%27%20height%3D%27824%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/bvdks.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250705-WA0015.jpg\" alt=\"Gruppenfoto der Teilnehmer beim Berlin Open 2025 im Kettlebell-Sport\" ><figcaption>Group photo of the participants at the Berlin Open 2025 in kettlebell sport<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p><a class=\"rpt-back\" href=\"https:\/\/bvdks.de\/en\/archiv\/\">\u2190 Back to the post archive<\/a><\/div>\n<p><script>(function(){function init(){var t=document.getElementById(\"rpt-track\"),c=document.getElementById(\"rpt-count\");if(!t||!c)return;var n=t.children.length;function move(d){var i=(Math.round(t.scrollLeft\/t.clientWidth)+d+n)%n;t.scrollTo({left:i*t.clientWidth,behavior:window.matchMedia(\"(prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)\").matches?\"auto\":\"smooth\"});}document.getElementById(\"rpt-prev\").onclick=function(){move(-1);};document.getElementById(\"rpt-next\").onclick=function(){move(1);};t.addEventListener(\"scroll\",function(){c.textContent=(Math.round(t.scrollLeft\/t.clientWidth)+1)+\" \/ \"+n;});}if(document.readyState===\"loading\")document.addEventListener(\"DOMContentLoaded\",init);else init();})();<\/script><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":16063,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16062","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 -
