Expectations are high for further growth as a Red Bull athlete
Red Bull, the popular energy drink known for its catchphrase "Gives you wings." Launched in Austria in 1987, it has pioneered unique marketing focused on action sports. With a scale and impact unimaginable for a beverage manufacturer, the brand has expanded into aerial competitions and events, such as the Red Bull Air Race and paragliding, as well as yacht and motor racing, and in recent years, e-sports. The fields in which it spreads its wings—sea, mountains, and online—are now global
The Red Bull team has also focused on supporting top athletes who lead various sports scenes. Joining the Red Bull team, which includes athletes who shine at the world's top level, is a sign of first-class excellence for athletes
Anri Kawamura is now a Red Bull athlete. Her next goal is to win the overall World Cup title and receive the Crystal Globe. With new wings, we look forward to seeing her soar even higher into the sky
