There is a new Queen

The 2025 Red Bull King of the Air was electrifying, and the North team delivered a performance worthy of the moment. With Nathalie claiming a dominant win, Francesca rewriting what’s possible, and Cohan charging through the bracket to earn a spot on the podium, the event belonged to progression, power, and pure commitment.

It was a perfect final and a commanding victory from Nathalie Lambrecht. She didn’t just win the event, she owned it. Her final was flawless, controlled, and completely in rhythm with the conditions and her gear. She landed every trick with power and authority. Every decision sharpened her lead. Nathalie showed that she is the most complete rider of the fleet. By the end of the final it was clear: she wasn’t just riding to win; she was riding to set a new standard. Her performance wasn’t just dominant, it was defining. A massive congratulations to Nathalie.

Cohan van Dijk showed grit from his very first heat. His path through the ladder was one of the toughest of the event. Heat after heat stacked with heavy competition, but he rose to every challenge with his signature blend of style and power. He showed that he understood what the judges wanted to see, and gave it his trademark style. Making the final for the first time in his career, he delivered a performance that earned him third place and his best-ever KOTA finish. Confident. Composed. Completely locked into his riding.

Francesca Maini may not have defended her 2024 title, but she left her mark on the event in the biggest way possible. With a 9.32 for a world-first move never before landed by a woman, she secured the Mystic Move of the Year. This is the first time in history that a woman takes this price, and Francesca once again pushed the progression of women’s big air into a new era. Her fourth-place finish came after a fiercely contested ladder, and two close heats, but her history-making moment will be remembered long after the podium settles.

From Nathalie’s perfect final, to Francesca’s barrier-breaking innovation, to Cohan’s career-best push — the 2025 edition of Red Bull King of the Air was a celebration of courage and commitment. Three riders. Three defining performances. One unforgettable day for North on the world stage.

Onward. Upward. And always sending it higher.
