SOUL of SKIING, Ep 2: Chasing The Surreal

HO Sports


Every so often, we try to step back and tell a story that isn’t just about skiing. It’s about something deeper — something just beneath the surface of what we do and why we do it. It’s not about buoys or records. It’s about feeling.

Chasing the Surreal is a film that takes you inside the minds of two of the most legendary female water skiers to ever enter the course: Allie Nicholson and Jaimee Bull.

This film was born from a simple question: What does it feel like when everything disappears but the moment?

The moment between the wake and the buoy.

Between breath and movement.

Between control and surrender.

That question led us to a mood.

The mood led us to a concept.

And the concept led us to this visual experience,…a video that isn’t just about skiing. But it’s about what skiing feels like when you’re in the Flow. When you’re not thinking anymore. When the water disappears, and all that’s left is movement.

Chasing the Surreal is a tribute to that Space.

A tribute to those rare moments where instinct takes over, and what’s left isn’t performance — it’s art.

Allie and Jaimee don’t just ski. They float. They carve through water like it’s silk. And in this film, we invite you not just to watch them — but to feel what it’s like to be them.

Not the highlight reel.

Not the podium.

The in-between.

The part no one talks about — but every skier chases.

We made this for them.

We made it for you.

We made it for the Soul of Skiing.

April 2. FlowPoint TV.

Don’t just watch it. Feel it.

Two-time World Water Skiing Champion Jamiee Bull is coming off a second consecutive World Title win in Women’s Slalom at the 2023 International Waterski & Wakeboard Federation (IWWF) World Waterski Championships this past October, further cementing her position as a dominant force in the water skiing world.  

In a recent interview with Lisa Boivin on North Bay Echo podcast To North Bay with Love, Bull divulged that her biggest challenge may be coming up.  

“In the spring I tore the ligament that holds your tibia and fibula together, the two bones in your leg and most of my knee. I don’t know exactly when it happened. I know that I crashed, but I wasn’t like, ‘Oh my knee hurts’. But after that, it was sore and that’s when I started noticing my fibula was just moving freely. It took a while to figure out what was going on. After communicating with doctors and physiotherapists they said if I could deal with the pain and I could ski on it, I could keep going without doing more damage to it and they would just have to reattach it after the season,” says Bull. 

“I skied on it all year and just had it braced up. After the season was done, I needed to figure out what I was going to do with this and we settled on a Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injection where they pulled blood out of my arm and then spun it and took the good parts of the blood and injected it into where the ligament is stored in the hopes that it’s going to help get the ligament to create a little bond and scar tissue to hold it together. This is the first step and I’m hoping that some downtime and some extra blood in there will help stabilize it enough that I don’t need surgery, but if I do, I found a surgeon now and I’m feeling a lot more comfortable with the surgery,” says Bull.
