California Balboa Classic 2025


It’s time for The California Balboa Classic!

Thanks to Cal Bal, Laura Keat, and Jennifer Reed for partnering with the live stream and allowing it this to happen again. Last year Cal Bal was my highest-attended attended live stream.

The broadcast will be going all weekend long and I’ll be capturing footage for the vlog!
