UNSTOPPABLE

Like a good wine, a magazine also improves over the years. 2018 is now the sixth season for The Cable, and one could say that we’ve acquired an excellent taste and have grown into our own among the community, riders, brands and creatives. 

Our magazine is an important culture medium and an efficient marketing platform at the same time. Original in design and of high-quality manufacture, fresh in perspective and driven by curiosity, unconventional and authentic. It’s a guide and companion for a rapidly growing sport, seeking to convey a unique lifestyle, engage its readers on an equal footing, excite and motivate.

The Cable is honest, different, surprising: a magazine that you’ll want to put on the shelf alongside your favorite books.

CONTENT
CREATION

“By the book” isn’t really our thing. Instead, we prefer to innovate with and for our partners above and beyond the classical editorial approach, developing high-value concepts and implementing them effectively. Creative approaches to the fusion of print and online content is becoming ever more important for us on this front.

O‘Neill Hit the Road

Multi-Channel olé! The 2016 road trip from Nico von Lerchenfeld, Dylan Miller & co. was captured in full with video clips and blog entries on its own exclusive micro-website as well as on social media. All this was followed up with an extensive follow-up report with plenty of photos in the form of a 24-page booklet inserted into The Cable print issues, a sure-fire way to reach the target audience.

The Renovation

One wakepark, three board brands, nine riders and a ten-day time window. First the crews rebuilt the provided obstacle setup to their hearts’ desires, then filmed together from first light until last call. The team that best combined their construction and riding talents was decided by the worldwide wakeboard community via voting on an interactive micro-website. During the voting phase there was hardly another topic to be found on the social media channels. The follow-up print article in The Cable magazine shortly afterwards recapped the story once more with extensive behind-the-scenes reportage.
