It is fitting then that Berliner Karl-Heinz “Kalle” Hille owns this category named for the Kaiser who was also from Berlin. Kalle won in Trondhjem in 2011, Anchorage in 2009, in Brighton in 2007, in Berlin in 2005, and in Carson City in 2003. He was also second overall in Anchorage and first overall in Carson City as well as in Ystad in 1999. That’s a five-peat, folks.

Each hair in its proper place and the perfect length. The silver suit perfectly augmenting the silver hair. Perfect.

Kalle rocks the imperial partial beard much better than Kaiser Wilhelm I in my opinion.
