The Ultimate Kerala Wakeboarding Trip

Dominik Hernler takes on the backwaters of Kerala and jumps over five snake boats to showcase his wakeboarding skills.

Dominik Hernler visited Kerala in 2024 to cruise through the backwaters of Alleppey on his wakebaord.
While in God’s Own Country, he also took on a few challenges that he set for himself, making use of cultural highlights like snake boats, house boats, long piers, deep ponds, and more.
Among the toughest of challenges was his attempt to jump over five snake boats lined up together with nearly 500 people on board.
He achieved this with ease despite the difficulty of natural conditions like winds and rough waves.
