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.

Raph Derome, une icône du wakeboard, tire sa révérence avec le film “Au Revoir”, disponible en intégralité et gratuitement sur Red Bull TV. Ce documentaire poignant revient sur la carrière exceptionnelle de ce champion, un voyage marqué par un héritage familial compétitif et une rivalité fraternelle qui a sans cesse alimenté son ascension vers les sommets de ce sport.

Raph Derome  , Au revoir  la vidéo

Né dans une famille où le wakeboard est bien plus qu’un simple loisir, Raph Derome a grandi avec la pression de la performance et l’excellence comme normes. Son frère aîné, Oli Derome, lui-même un talentueux wakeboarder, a été à la fois son plus grand rival et son plus grand allié. Cette dynamique familiale a forgé le caractère et la détermination de Raph, le poussant à repousser constamment ses limites et à se perfectionner.

Le film “Au Revoir” retrace les moments marquants de la carrière de Raph, depuis ses débuts sur l’eau jusqu’à ses triomphes dans les compétitions internationales. Mais au-delà des victoires et des trophées, ce documentaire met en lumière l’homme derrière le champion. On y découvre ses doutes, ses sacrifices, et la quête incessante de liberté et d’authenticité qui l’a guidé tout au long de sa carrière.

Ce Film  souligne la modestie de Raph Derome, malgré ses nombreux succès. Bien qu’il ait souvent été sous les projecteurs, Raph est resté une figure discrète et humble, préférant laisser parler ses performances sur l’eau. Son retrait de la compétition marque la fin d’une ère pour le wakeboard, mais son influence perdurera à travers ceux qu’il a inspirés et les records qu’il a établis.

“Au Revoir” n’est pas seulement un film sur le sport, c’est un hommage à un athlète exceptionnel et à sa passion inébranlable pour le wakeboard. C’est aussi un rappel de l’importance de suivre ses rêves, peu importe les obstacles. Pour les fans de wakeboard et les novices, ce film est une invitation à plonger dans l’univers d’un des plus grands wakeboarders de tous les temps et à célébrer la carrière d’un champion qui a marqué son époque.

Guenther Oka Takes Wakeboarding to New Extremes in the Florida Everglades

The thrill of wakeboarding takes a wild turn in the latest adventure featuring professional wakeboarder Guenther Oka. Known for pushing the boundaries of the sport, Oka’s newest escapade sees him exploring the expansive wetlands of the Florida Everglades, towed not by a typical boat, but by a roaring airboat. This exhilarating ride, set in a region where over 30% of Florida’s area is made up of wetlands, offers a fresh and thrilling perspective on both wakeboarding and this unique natural habitat.

The Florida Everglades, a vast and sprawling ecosystem, presents the perfect backdrop for this high-octane adventure. The airboat, a vehicle synonymous with the Everglades due to its ability to navigate shallow, vegetation-rich waters, proves to be an exceptional partner in crime for Oka. It provides the necessary speed and power to create the perfect wake for boarding, all while manoeuvring through narrow waterways and dense foliage that are inaccessible to most other boats.

Guenther Oka | Wake Glades

Guenther Oka’s journey through these wild wetlands is not just a test of his wakeboarding prowess but also an opportunity to interact with one of the most unique ecosystems on the planet. As Oka skims across the water, he is surrounded by the rich biodiversity of the Everglades. From herons taking flight at the water’s edge to alligators lurking beneath the surface, the natural inhabitants of this area add an element of awe and unpredictability to the experience.

The video capturing this journey is nothing short of spectacular. It showcases Oka performing incredible tricks and jumps against the lush, untamed backdrop of the Everglades. The footage is interspersed with breathtaking shots of the scenery and wildlife, highlighting the stark contrast between the aggressive athleticism of wakeboarding and the serene natural beauty of the surroundings.

This wakeboarding session goes beyond conventional sporting videos by integrating the elements of speed, nature, and adrenaline-fueled excitement. The airboat’s powerful engine echoes through the wetlands, creating a symphony of nature and machine that adds to the rawness of the adventure. The viewer is left with a palpable sense of the speed and skill involved, as Oka masters the unpredictable waters whipped up by the airboat.

Moreover, the video serves as a vivid reminder of the Everglades’ fragility and the importance of conserving such unique environments. It juxtaposes human innovation and nature’s grandeur, inviting viewers to consider the impact of their recreational activities on the world’s natural wonders.

Guenther Oka’s airboat-towed ride through the Everglades is not just a showcase of wakeboarding talent but a bold statement on the fusion of sport and environment. For enthusiasts and novices alike, this video is a call to explore and appreciate the wild spaces around us in new and exciting ways. It challenges the conventions of water sports, making us rethink what is possible on a wakeboard while prompting us to keep an eye out for the gators lurking below.

Dubai, United Arab Emirates – December 4, 2023: Brian Grubb, the American Wakeskating pioneer and three-time world champion, has accomplished an unprecedented feat in an innovative project that merged drone Wakeskating and BASE jumping. Perched atop the sky bridge at Dubai’s Address Beach Resort, the Guinness World Record-holding infinity pool sits an astonishing 294 meters above sea level.

Grubb’s audacious journey commenced with a 94-meter wakeskating glide across the rooftop pool, towed by a drone, followed by a leap over the pool’s edge. This seamlessly transitioned into a thrilling 77-story BASE jump, culminating in a successful landing at the beach below. This groundbreaking achievement, known as “WakeBASE,” brought Grubb’s seven-year-old dream to fruition, marking a historic milestone. Here’s a comprehensive overview:

1. Unparalleled Challenge: The WakeBASE project presented an unparalleled challenge for Brian Grubb, renowned for wakeskating in unique locations worldwide, including Jordan’s Wadi al-Hidan canyon, Cape Cod’s icebergs, and Türkiye’s Cleopatra Pool. The combination of Wakeskating and BASE jumping had never been attempted before, and Grubb was determined to be the pioneer.
2. Seven-Year Dream: Grubb expressed his motivation, stating, “I wanted to be the first person to do a combination of Wakeskating switch into BASE jump and push myself to the highest level in my sports. I’ve had this idea for seven years, and not a day goes by when I’m not thinking about it.”
3. Meticulous Preparation: Grubb enlisted the expertise of Miles Daisher, a renowned BASE jump legend, to design a rigorous training program. With over 4,500 BASE jumps to his name, Daisher focused on building Grubb’s skills, recognizing the need for extensive training due to Grubb’s limited 26 BASE jumps by December 2022.
4. Training Locations: The duo trained at Daisher’s facility in Idaho, USA, mastering exit points ranging from 106m to 121m. Subsequently, they moved to Lauterbrunen, Switzerland, known for being a BASE jump haven, tackling exit points, including the challenging High Ultimate at 305m. Grubb accrued 106 BASE jumps under Daisher’s guidance.
5. Partnership with Prada: In collaboration with Prada, Grubb donned custom Prada Linea Rossa performance gear, specially optimized for both Wakeskating and BASE jumping. The gear included shoes designed for optimal grip on the custom Prada Linea Rossa Wake Skate.
6. Drone Development: Drone developer Sebastian Stare and his team custom-engineered a drone tailored for WakeBASE. Stare explained that the drone’s unique features, from hardware components to software, were designed to enhance flight behavior for Wakeskate moves, with insights from Brian himself.
7. Culmination of Passion: Grubb’s WakeBASE project represents the culmination of over 20 years of Wakeskating and 15 years of skydiving, blending his two greatest passions seamlessly.
8. Ideal Location: Grubb highlighted the significance of the chosen location, the Address Beach Resort in Dubai, with the world’s highest invisible edge pool. The building’s setup, pool curvature, and expansive beach landing area perfectly suited the unique requirements of the project.

– On the unique location, Grubb concluded: “When we got this idea we looked for high water and there’s not much out there. Then we saw the Address Beach Resort in Dubai with the highest invisible edge pool in the world and we had to come take a look at it. The building is set up for us, the way the pool curves is perfect for me as I’m right foot forward and the shape is what we needed for the ramp and then there’s this nice big landing area on the beach. As soon as we got eyes on it in person, we knew it was on and that’s when the real mission started.”

Save the date: Sept  16th

Top pro wakeboarders from around the world return to compete in Orlando on Sept. 16, free admission for all spectators at Gaston Edwards Park 

Red Bull Double or Nothing powered by Mastercraft brings the top wakeboarders in the world to Orlando in a winner-take-all, best trick competition behind the legendary MasterCraft XStar S. The competition pushes the sport’s best athletes to redefine what’s possible on a wakeboard.

Parks Bonifay is the creator of Red Bull Double or Nothing and a certified legend in the sport. He’s recruited the best of the best from around the world to compete on Saturday, September 16. Every year the world’s top wakeboarder’s attempt huge, never-done-before, history-making tricks at Red Bull Double or Nothing, and this year will be no exception.

The event gets its name from the “double-up”, which is the moment when two wakes combine into one, growing more than three times the size of a usual wake. This allows the pros to get massive air, allowing for huge tricks, and risking huge crashes.

Parks, an Orlando resident, is stoked to bring the world’s best back to his hometown crowd to compete; “Red Bull Double or Nothing is the most progressive wakeboard contest to date. As a rider in the event, one of the things I’m super pumped about is having a packed shore line full of people cheering and pushing us to land a trick that’s possibly never been done before. With $10,000 on the line, who knows, we might see the first ever triple flip! Gonna be a wild day, come down to Lake Ivanhoe and join the vibe!”

For the first time in the event’s history, two of the best women in the sport will be participating in a double-up exhibition on Saturday afternoon. Meagan Ethell is a 7 time World Champion living in Orlando. Jamie Lopino is also a World Champion and former Rider of the Year. Each will showcase their world-class talent and get in on the action, going bigger than either ever have ever before and  attempting their own double-ups.

Australia’s Sam Brown won last year’s event by nailing a Switch Double Moab (double backflip with a full 360), earning him the winner-take-all $10,000 prize. Sam will be returning this year and has plans to land that first ever triple flip.  Other stars of the sport that will be vying for that prize purse include Cory Teunissen, Steel Lafferty, Shota Tezuka and Luca Kidd.  Judges include 2020 winner Guenther Oka and veteran pro Jimmy LaRiche.

Last year the event introduced two wild card spots, saved for boarders in the general public who submit a video for a chance to be selected by Parks to compete. This proved to be a massive success, with twin Argentinian brothers Ulf and Kai Distch securing those spots, and then absolutely crushing it at the competition. They will both return as invited riders this year, with two new wildcard spots open. The submission phase is open as of August 18th and will close on September 1st. Tag @parxxx on Instagram with hashtag #doubleornothingwildcard before then send in your submission!

To see Parks and company send it on Lake Ivanhoe in person, head to Gaston Edwards Park on Saturday, Sept. 16^th from 9am-5pm. The day will be complete with food trucks, family-friendly games, and an open area for some of the best views of the lake to see a spectacle unlike any other in wakeboarding.

For anyone that can’t attend, all the action will be streamed live. Tune in to Send It Official’s YouTube Page on the 16th!
