When we ran the sequence of Mike Dowdy stomping a perfect switch mute double roll 180 in our March '13 issue of TransWorld Wakeboarding, the question had to be asked, "is he going to do that in his contest run?" It was done so clean and with apparent ease that signs pointed to yes...

This guy really made some noise last year at the Red Bull Wake Open in Tampa. He was kind of an unknown dude at that point, but Parks had seen him ride somewhere in Europe and since he already rode for Red Bull he got his invite pushed through and blew some minds...

After his chilly ride in the icy waters of St. Petersburg, Nikita headed for warmer water and some new tricks at the Wake-A-Lot Camp in Thailand. Although we prefer to see solid grabs on double flips, the fact that he set down all of these new tricks in one weekend is pretty impressive...

When we think of Nikita Martyanov riding in the winter, for his sake we hope it isn't in his hometown of St. Petersburg in Russia. At least not outside anyways. Check out his unique Red Bull project battling the icy cold waters of the St. Petersburg canals

Red Bull athlete Brian Grubb and ripper Ben Horan head back to the cranberry bog that was featured a few years ago. This time Red Bull Winch Sessions let it all hang out bringing insane cameras to capture the beauty up in Manitowish Waters, Wisconsin.

The Red Bull Winch Sessions crew of Ben Horan, Brian Grubb, and Yan Lecomte continue to find hidden gems in the Midwest. These guys must have some version of Google Earth that has a Dope-Spot finder or something because they keep showing up at the coolest drops and dams that we have seen.

Just in time to cure your "oh, my god it's Monday and I went way too hard on Halloween weekend" blues, Steel Lafferty goes and drops this or you. There's not a whole lot to say about this, Steel's pop is mind blowing and his riding only gets more and more amazing...

The impeccable style of Adam Errington. In the May issue of TransWorld WAKEBOARDING Easy E hit the jackpot with both the cover and the Pro Spotlight. Here is a look back.

There have been many many things said about Raphael Derome in the last few months and deservedly so.  This kid came back from a very serious injury, stronger and more determined than ever.

It is no longer a secret, Raphael Derome is a hot commodity. Insiders saw his skills and potential years ago, but this year was his year to show the world just how badass he is. Having been on the podium in all three disciplines at the Red Bull Wake Open, winning two, and taking the overall win in dominant fashion, Raph caps off his year of also winning O'Neill Wake the Line and FISE...

What better way to spend your birthday than winching the New York-New York fountain in Las Vegas with your buddies. Brian Grubb's baby face got one year older while he, Danny Hampson and Brandon Thomas proceeded to build and then destroy a rail in front of thousands of passers-by.
