Raph Derome- Beyond Perception // Is this the future of wakeboarding?

People have different perceptions of canadian wakeboarder Raph Derome.

As a guy that prefers to keep a low profile, living the life of a self-described introvert, it’s sometimes difficult for Raph to express who he really is to those around him. That’s why he lets his wakeboarding speak for him. His progressive style, creativity and massive bag of tricks is surely unique and makes him one of the world´s best wakeboarders. No matter if he shreds cable or boat, you can always expect to see some never been done bangers.

With an endless drive and dedication to wakeboarding, Raph is truly in it for the love of the game. Never quite satisfied, being on the water for him is about the constant pursuit of progression and evolving his own unique vision of the sport. Two years in the making, Raph‘s latest video project is the product of a tireless effort to capture the soul of wakeboarding and a visual declaration to the masses that there is much more to him beyond just high-profile contests. In partnership with Red Bull Media House, Billabong and Malibu Boats, the journey takes Raph on a trip back to some favorite spots including Florida, his home province of Quebec and a big-city shred through Toronto’s
‘Ontario Place’.
