After using the 16kg kettlebell at the workshop, I just had to have one! Shipped overnight from Osaka, Japan to my hotel in Tokyo, to Narita Airport, to getting delayed and lost in transit at the Detroit Airport, to the Toronto Airport, then to my front doorstep…This kettlebell has been through a lot and not to mention, has travelled 6500 miles just to be with me! When I got back to Toronto, I reported it missing and luckily the next day it arrived at the airport and was personally delivered to me by 5pm the next day. Observe the original condition of the box to how it looked by the time I received it. This is my first pro grade kettlebell and I am super excited. I thought I would have to sand down the handle before using it but to my surprise, it came to me already pre-conditioned – Thanks Tarbo! Can’t wait to start working out with this beast! I named it Taiyou, because of its bright, cheerful yellow hue, which also translates to sun in Japanese.
