Red Bull Athlete Clinches Gold at 2025 IWWF Asia & Oceania Cable Wakeboard & Wakeskate Championships at Clark, Pampanga
Filipino wakeboarder and Red Bull athlete Raph
Trinidad marks another historic win after clinching gold at the 2025 IWWF Asia
and Oceania Cable Wakeboard and Wakeskate Championships. Trinidad competed in
the Open Men’s category for the Wakeboarding event, scoring 81.67 to earn him
his first place win.
The 2025 IWWF Asia and Oceania Cable Wakeboard
and Wakeskate Championships were held last January 24 to 26 at the Decawake
Clark Cable Park in Angeles City, Pampanga. Bringing together the top
wakeboarders from Asia and Oceania, the event marked the final qualifier for
The World Games (TWG) 2025 happening August in Chengdu, China.
Trinidad delivered a flawless and exhilarating
run that earned him top marks from the judges. With his top spot finish,
Trinidad bested international wakeboarders such as Kyrgyzstan’s Stanislav
Fidelsky, Thailand’s Luke Atirat Carrick and Benjamin Phechyuenyong, as well as
Australia’s Zac Falzon and Lachlan “Locky” Fort.
As the champion for the Open Men’s category
for Wakeboarding, the 23-year-old wakeboarding prodigy from Liloan has secured
his spot for the prestigious sporting event.
“Winning an international competition in my
home park feels like a dream,” said Trinidad. “Being surrounded by those who
have supported me from the start made it even more special. It was an honor to
represent my country, and the incredible support pushed me to give my best. I’m
proud to bring this victory home.”
Trinidad claimed that during the competition,
his mind was set on doing his run as planned instead of whether he would win or
lose. “In every competition, I always remind myself that my biggest competition
is myself. As long as I land the run I planned, I’m already super happy no matter
the outcome.”
His latest victory adds to Trinidad’s already impressive track record, which includes a podium finish at last year’s IWWF World Cable Wakeboard and Wakeskate Championships at Le Kable, Choisy le Roi in Paris.
