Kitesurfing off Richard Branson's cruise ship ??

Big ship. Epic stunt. Approved by the main man, Sir Richard Branson ???

Our challenge? To launch a new partnership between Red Bull and Virgin, making waves with two dynamic brands to deliver exclusive Red Bull content across Virgin’s planes, cruise ships, and beyond ??

This was a TikTok-first campaign featuring Red Bull athlete Tom Bridge kitesurfing off the top deck, hooking the audience in to boost brand affinity for both Red Bull and Virgin ??

With the platform currently pushing landscape videos over a minute long, we harnessed this trend to immerse fans into this epic feat. Watch the edit HERE.

If you were to ask anyone what our most iconic bike project is, it’s likely they’d say "The Ridge", and with over 80 million YouTube views over the past decade, you can understand why ????

Turning ten this month, The Ridge is a love letter to Danny's home on the Isle of Skye, featuring some death-defying moments along the Cuillin Ridgeline, firmly putting the "mountain" in his first-ever mountain bike film ??

Head to the blog to go behind the scenes and find out why this was one of our toughest films ever made ??
