Behind the Photo Wakesurfing Santa

Photography
Written By Chris Stenberg

At the end of the last wakesurfing season I had the idea that we really needed some Christmas content to keep people stoked about boating through the winter season. I ordered a Santa Claus suit from amazon and away we went.

I think the important thing with any kind of gag content is that you need to film it as seriously and epically as possible, so we did. Shooting with the DJI Mavic 3 and a Sony FX3 and Alpha 1 we put together a series of videos and photos for holiday promo use. Honestly, I couldn’t stop laughing the entire time. Watching Santa surf the wake was just too funny.
