After exploring France in Tours et Détours and then Brittany in 2024, Jules Charraud now releases a new video that once again showcases both his level and his creativity on this winter playground.

Après avoir exploré la France dans « Tours et Détours », puis la Bretagne en 2024, Jules Charraud dévoile désormais une nouvelle vidéo qui met une fois de plus en lumière à la fois son niveau et sa créativité sur ce terrain de jeu hivernal.

Red Bull athlete Jules Charraud, known for pushing the limits of his sport, delivers a highly creative performance by taking on the Alpine summits. Inthis spectacular video, shot in the iconic resorts of Serre-Chevalier, Courchevel, Montgenèvre and Val Thorens, Jules leaves his usualplayground behind to explore snowy and icy landscapes.Pulled by a winch, he turns the mountains into a gigantic natural cablepark. Between frozen rivers, ski slopes, iced-over lakes, boardercrosstracks and chairlifts, wakeboarding becomes a fully fledged winter sport.

Jules Charraud, athlète Red Bull réputé pour repousser les limites de son sport, livre une performance hautement créative en s’attaquant aux sommets alpins. Dans cette vidéo spectaculaire, tournée dans les stations emblématiques de Serre-Chevalier, Courchevel, Montgenèvre et Val Thorens, Jules quitte son terrain habituel pour explorer des paysages enneigés et glacés. Tiré par un treuil, il transforme les montagnes en un gigantesque téléski naturel. Entre rivières gelées, pistes de ski, lacs pris par les glaces, pistes de boardercross et remontées mécaniques, le wakeboard devient un véritable sport d’hiver.

The result? Images that break all the wakeboarding rules and reinventwhat we thought was possible on snow and ice.

A VIDEO THAT SMASHES WAKEBOARDING’S NATURAL BARRIERS

In this video, Jules Charraud strings together never-before-seen sequences where every shot defies gravity and imagination. He slaloms between skiers on the slopes, takes on snowboarders on a boardercross course, jumps over a cross‑country skier, cuts right through a hockey game on ice, and even soars over snowy walkways several metres above the Lac de la Rosière.

With a wakeboard specially designed for the occasion, he even rides up a slope, weaving between giant slalom gates, showcasing flawless technique and boundless creativity. As unexpected as they are impressive, these images invite us to rethink sliding sports by tearing down the barriers between water, snow and ice.

UNE VIDÉO QUI DÉFIE LES LIMITES NATURELLES DU WAKEBOARD

Dans cette vidéo, Jules Charraud enchaîne des séquences inédites où chaque plan défie la gravité et l’imagination. Il slalome entre les skieurs sur les pistes, affronte des snowboardeurs sur un parcours de boardercross, saute par-dessus un skieur de fond, traverse en pleine action une partie de hockey sur glace, et s’élance même au-dessus de passerelles enneigées situées à plusieurs mètres au-dessus du lac de la Rosière.

Grâce à une planche de wakeboard spécialement conçue pour l’occasion, il remonte même une pente en slalomant entre les portes d’un géant, démontrant une technique irréprochable et une créativité sans limites. À la fois inattendues et impressionnantes, ces images nous invitent à repenser les sports de glisse en abolissant les frontières entre eau, neige et glace.

EXPLORING THE MOUNTAINS, DIFFERENTLY

Halfway between performance, pure wake session and exploration of Alpine landscapes, this video feels like a call to creativity and adventure in

the mountains. The idea was to show that riding has no limits. Whatever the surface, as long as you’ve got some creativity and imagination, the

playground is endless thanks to the winch” explains Jules. With its relentless pace, this nod to winter sports will appeal just as much to wake fans as to ski and snowboard lovers—and to anyone who

appreciates stunning imagery.

EXPLORER LA MONTAGNE, AUTREMENT

À mi-chemin entre performance, session de wake pure et exploration des paysages alpins, cette vidéo ressemble à un véritable appel à la créativité et à l’aventure en montagne. « L’idée était de montrer que le glisse n’a pas de limites. Quelle que soit la surface, tant qu’on a un peu de créativité et d’imagination, le terrain de jeu devient infini grâce au treuil », explique Jules.

Avec son rythme implacable, cet hommage aux sports d’hiver séduira autant les passionnés de wakeboard que les amateurs de ski et de snowboard — ainsi que tous ceux qui apprécient les images spectaculaires.

Chengdu, China – History was made last week at the brand-new Panda Wakepark cable, purpose-built for The World Games. Selected based on their world rankings and victories in major competitions, the planet’s top wakeboarders gathered for a long-awaited showdown — and it was Germany’s Julia Rick who stole the spotlight on the Open women division .

The Return of Cable Wakeboarding to The World Games

It had been twenty years since cable wakeboarding last featured at The World Games, with its only appearance in Duisburg, Germany, back in 2005. Known as a multi-sport event for disciplines outside the Olympic and Paralympic programs, The World Games first took place in 1981 in the United States, offering athletes from non-Olympic sports a global stage.

In 2005, four waterski and wakeboard disciplines were on the schedule: Barefoot, Boat Wakeboard, Cable Wakeboard, and Overall Waterski. Back then, Denise De Haan (NED) claimed gold in the women’s cable event, with Kirsten-Brigitte Leifel (GER) and Pauline Dyrschka (GER) rounding out the podium.

Julia Rick Reclaims Her Throne

Fast forward to 2025, and the sport has evolved into a high-powered spectacle, with athletes pushing the limits of what’s possible on a cable. In the women’s division, all eyes were on Julia Rick — the multiple-time world champion and global icon of women’s wakeboarding.

After narrowly missing gold at the World Championships in Paris last September, Rick came to Chengdu with one mission: to win. She delivered under pressure, combining flawless execution with her trademark technical mastery to secure the top step of the podium.

“I’ve been dreaming about this moment since Paris,” said Rick after her victory. “To win gold here, at The World Games, with the world watching, is just incredible.”

Italian rising star Vanessa Titarelli claimed silver, proving once again she’s a serious contender for the sport’s future. Bronze went to the Netherlands’ Sanne Meijer, the reigning Cable World Champion, who also competed in the boat wakeboard event earlier in the week.

Camsur Watersports Complex (CWC): A Wakeboarding Paradise in Pili, Philippines

CWC Wakepark Resurgence 2024: Nestled in the heart of the Bicol region, the Camsur Watersports Complex (CWC) in Pili, Philippines, is a premier destination for wakeboarding enthusiasts from around the globe. Since its inception, CWC has grown to become a vital hub for cable wakeboarding, attracting both professional athletes and amateurs eager to experience its world-class facilities. This article delves into the history, significance, and impact of CWC on the global wakeboarding scene, while also celebrating the individuals who have played key roles in keeping this iconic sports complex thriving.

The Birth of a Wakeboarding Mecca

CWC was established with the vision of promoting tourism in the province of Camarines Sur, with a specific focus on water sports. The brainchild of former Governor Luis Raymund “Lray” Villafuerte Jr., CWC opened its doors in 2006. The goal was to create a facility that could compete on an international level, offering top-notch amenities for both casual visitors and professional wakeboarders. What started as a bold vision quickly became a reality, transforming a once quiet town into a bustling center of activity and a beacon for sports tourism in the Philippines.

World-Class Facilities and Offerings

The Camsur Watersports Complex is renowned for its state-of-the-art cable park, which is considered one of the best in the world. The complex features a six-point cable system, which allows wakeboarders to practice and perform tricks with ease. The park is designed to cater to all skill levels, from beginners taking their first ride to seasoned professionals looking to hone their craft.

In addition to wakeboarding, CWC offers a variety of other water sports, including wakeskating, water skiing, and knee boarding. The complex also boasts a number of additional amenities, such as a pro shop, dining facilities, and accommodations ranging from budget-friendly cabins to luxury villas. The scenic backdrop of Mount Isarog and the surrounding greenery further enhances the overall experience, making CWC not just a sports complex but a complete vacation destination.

A Hub for International Competitions

CWC’s reputation as a top-tier wakeboarding venue has led to its selection as the host for numerous international competitions. The complex has hosted events such as the World Wakeboarding Championships and the International Wakeboarding and Waterski Federation (IWWF) World Cup. These events have drawn athletes from around the world, further cementing CWC’s status as a key player in the global wakeboarding community.

One of the most significant aspects of these competitions is the exposure they provide for Filipino athletes. CWC has become a training ground for local wakeboarders, giving them the opportunity to compete against some of the best in the world on home turf. This has led to a growing interest in the sport within the Philippines, with more young people taking up wakeboarding as a serious pursuit.

Celebrating the Athletes and Visionaries with this new Opus

CWC has been graced by the presence of some of the biggest names in wakeboarding. Among these are Graeme Burress, JB O’Neill, Ile Vegni, Sam Dehaan, and Konni Lehndorff. These athletes have not only showcased their incredible skills at CWC but have also helped elevate the complex’s profile through their participation in events and their promotion of the facility on social media and other platforms.

Graeme Burress, known for his daring tricks and innovative riding style, has been a frequent visitor to CWC. His performances at the complex have left lasting impressions on both spectators and fellow athletes alike. JB O’Neill, another prominent figure in the wakeboarding world, has also been instrumental in highlighting CWC’s offerings through his widely-followed online presence.

The contributions of these athletes are matched by the dedication of the individuals who have kept CWC thriving. The Villafuerte family, led by Lray Villafuerte, along with his sons Migz and Luigi, have been pivotal in maintaining and expanding the complex. Their commitment to the facility and to the promotion of wakeboarding in the Philippines has been unwavering. Through their efforts, CWC has not only survived but thrived, continuing to attract visitors and athletes from all corners of the globe.

The Future of CWC

As CWC approaches nearly two decades of operation, it shows no signs of slowing down. The complex continues to evolve, with plans for further expansion and the addition of new facilities to enhance the visitor experience. The ongoing support from the Villafuerte family ensures that CWC will remain a key player in the world of wakeboarding for years to come.

The future of CWC also lies in its ability to inspire the next generation of wakeboarders. With the increasing popularity of the sport in the Philippines, CWC is poised to become a breeding ground for new talent. The complex’s role in hosting competitions and providing top-notch training facilities will undoubtedly contribute to the development of more world-class Filipino wakeboarders.
