With 4th July on the horizon, a trip to the lake for some outdoor fun might be on the agenda. Golf bag and push cart brand BIG MAX had the same idea, but in true BIG MAX style they dialled up the excitement levels and tested their waterproof bags to the extreme with their new AQUA Lake adventure.
Together with wakeboard champion Niko Juric and professional foil surfer Martin Dürrschmid, BIG MAX took its golf bags through an extraordinary challenge. No simulated weather conditions. No lab tests. Just water, speed, and pure physical impact. Take a look here www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2ay38bYLrY
With loaded AQUA Hybrid 4 and Dri Lite Hybrid Plus bags strapped to their backs, Niko and Martin jumped waves, spun through the air, and crashed into the water with full force. A true spectacle – and the ultimate stress test for a waterproof bag!
But this wasn’t just a stunt that produced some remarkable footage. BIG MAX set itself three challenges to prove the bag’s ultimate resilience.
- Water resistance under full submersion: The bags were pushed far beyond a typical rainy round. Submerged directly in the lake, exposed to repeated water contact, and tested over extended wet sessions, the waterproofing was pushed to its limits.
- Performance in motion: With a lightweight design and ergonomic carrying systems, the bags had to stay secure and comfortable – no chafing, no stretching. Even during airborne stunts and high-impact landings, they held steady.
- Durability under pressure: The specially developed AQUA material faced not just water, but serious mechanical strain. Pressure, motion, and friction tested every seam and joint.
After countless jumps, spins, and full water impact, the BIG MAX bags demonstrated exceptional resilience and unmatched waterproof qualities. And for those wondering what happened when the bags filled with water? Despite soaked lining and dripping dividers, the bags dried completely with no swelling, warping, or performance loss. Zippers and carrying systems continued to work flawlessly, as the bags returned to good as new.
While wakeboarding with golf bags is a fun, a bold idea, this really has demonstrated what BIG MAX is all about: creating products that perform under the most extreme conditions. As the brand states, AQUA Lake is more than a campaign name. It’s their promise: You can count on BIG MAX, wherever your game takes you.
