Cranberry-Covered Extreme Sports

The Red Bull Winch Team Takes Over Manitowish Waters

— December 17, 2012 — Marketing
Charming scenery is captured as some of the world's best wake skaters, the members of the Red Bull winch crew, take over a cranberry bog. The crew road trips to some of the best wake skating spots around the United States. The “Winch Sessions” series showcases wake skaters’ multiple day skating sessions, along with the glorious landscapes they travel to. Manitowish Waters in Wisconsin provides the crew with by far some of the most delightful footage as the wake skaters glide through a glorious sea of cranberries.

The harvesting of the cranberries, which is one of the most interesting of any fruits, is tastefully showcased. The team assures us that no cranberries were wasted or damaged during production. Red Bull once again demonstrates successful sponsorship, engaging in a blend of film making, extreme sports and travelling. The series is featured on the Red Bull Winch Team’s YouTube channel for everyone’s enjoyment.
