PHASE 5WAKESURFING
Competition-grade wakesurf boards, filmed with speed and precision.
Phase 5 handcrafts elite wakesurf boards for competitive riders. The film had to feel as fast and technical as the product.
I directed and shot a vertical hero reel focused on board detail, rider motion, and the snap of a competition-grade wave.
The edit stays tight: no filler, just product, performance, and brand mark.
