A look at how Cranberries are harvested the Red Bull way and Cranberry Wakeskating!

Red Bull have published a video that shares insight as to how Cranberries are harvested with a twist.

They sent two professional wakeskaters, Ben Horan and Brian Grubb out onto a Cranberry bog, surprising both of them as to exactly how Cranberries are grown and harvested. It might surprise you too.

The video makes for some awe inspiring footage as the two men create some cranberry art on a cranberry bog.

Cranberries are evergreen dwarf shrubs that can be found in acidic bogs throughout the cooler regions of the northern hemisphere.

They grow up to 2 metres long and 5 to 20 centimetres in height; they have slender, wiry stems that are not thickly woody and have small evergreen leaves.

They are pollinated by bees and the fruit is a berry that is larger than the leaves of the plant; it is initially white, but turns a deep red when fully ripe which is in the Autumn months.

Is believed to have wined & dined three women on the same night at the same time at different restaurants in Parkhurst and none of them realised it!
