01 · CHALLENGE

A global community fragmented across a hundred tools.

Wakeboarding and adjacent water sports happen across thousands of parks, clubs and crews worldwide. Riders, organizers and brands relied on Instagram, Facebook groups and spreadsheets to coordinate — making discovery, ranking and event participation painfully manual.

  • No global directory of venues, clubs and riders
  • Event participation, jobs and content scattered across platforms
  • No unified world ranking visible to fans and sponsors
02 · SOLUTION

A single home for riders, clubs and events.

We designed Wake House as a multi-module community OS. Riders create profiles, follow venues, register for events and watch cinema content. Clubs and brands manage their presence. The platform aggregates competition results into a live world ranking so the audience sees who's at the top in real-time.

  • World map of venues with discovery and check-in
  • Events module with calendars, registrations and live results
  • Cinema for community-uploaded content
  • Jobs board for the action sports industry
  • Live world rankings tied into ScoreHeat data
03 · RESULTS

A category-defining platform for water sports.

Wake House quickly became the default home for the global wake community — riders, clubs, brands and event organizers — replacing dozens of disconnected tools with a single, branded community experience.

  • 300+ venues mapped within the first season
  • Live World Ranking 2026 launched with top 5 pro M/W
  • 7 integrated modules running on a single account
