Sessions – The South Florida Run

Another Sunshine State wake adventure with the Red Bull team.

For each of the last three years, members of Red Bull’s wake crew have put together some epic adventures around Florida. It started in 2018 with “Okeechobee Runnin’” – a journey across Florida from west to east, via Lake Okeechobee and its canals. In 2019 the gang did the “North Florida Loop” – heading north up the St. John’s River to Jacksonville, then coming back south via the Intracoastal. This year a squad consisting of Parks Bonifay, Brian Grubb, Meagan Ethell, Guenther Oka, Massi Piffaretti and Gunner Daft continued the Intracoastal theme – taking the waterway from Cocoa south to Miami. Along the way they found some new places to ride, including countless winch spots. Photographer Bryan Soderlind was once again there to capture all that went down, including Guenther Oka scoring the most recent Cover Up feature. This is the South Florida Run, and per usual, it looks like an epic wake adventure with a rad crew. It goes to show that with some creativity and planning, you can do a lot more than you think with your wake boat. Stay tuned for a video series courtesy of Erik Ruck, too.
