Samsung Galaxy Ring, S24 Ultra and Z Flip6 Power Red Bull Rampage

Samsung Galaxy’s collaboration with Red Bull continued this month with the premier big mountain freeride mountain biking event, Red Bull Rampage, including the first ever all-female competition. Each rider and their team faced a daunting task: they had eight days to construct the lips, landings, and lines needed to travel from the top of the mountain to the finish line, with only water, hand tools, and 75 sandbags.

Previously, the impact of this grueling challenge could only be described in words. Now, with the help of Galaxy Ring, teams tracked the physical and mental readiness of their riders daily prior to and during the event and received personalized recommendations on how to improve their routine. When the competition kicked off, Galaxy S24 Ultra captured the heart-pumping race and all its electric moments. Galaxy Z Flip6 also helped athletes capture their own practice sessions using FlexCam – no tripod or help needed to capture the perfect shot.

“Galaxy Ring and Galaxy Smartphones just highlighted yet another example of how innovative devices can offer thrilling experiences” said Simon Callan, Head of Partnerships at Samsung Electronics America. “Red Bull Rampage was the perfect opportunity to show off Galaxy S24 Ultra’s stunning camera as well as Galaxy Ring’s groundbreaking features — from sleep analysis to Wellness Tips — which supports athletes’ recovery time by offering personalized advice based on their sleep, activity, and more.”

Red Bull competitions are synonymous with daring challenges and Galaxy Ring kept up with world-class athletes, Casey Brown and Kurt Sorge, all day and night. In the eight-day lead-up to the competition, each rider and team was hard at work envisioning and creating the best path down the mountain. Throughout this process, Galaxy Ring tracked activity levels, sleep quality, and so much more — delivering a daily Energy Score that encapsulated their rider’s readiness. Teams used these scores to determine how much rest their rider needed to ensure peak performance on race day. During the competition, these daily scores were shared on the broadcast, highlighting the impact of the preparation, and how Galaxy Ring’s personalized tips provided the competitors with the tools they needed to succeed.

“The minimalist design of the Galaxy Ring is perfect for my lifestyle. I can’t believe how much technology they fit into such a small piece of jewelry, which helped inform my recovery,” said Casey Brown. “I don’t even notice it during my daily activities, like digging or riding my bike. I can even sleep with it on without noticing it’s there.”

Red Bull Rampage was filled with excitement from start to finish — featuring jaw-dropping action, close races, and iconic victories. To capture these memorable moments, Galaxy S24 Ultra’s 200MP camera was on hand. Powered by the innovative ProVisual Engine, Samsung Galaxy’s comprehensive suite of AI-powered tools, Galaxy S24 Ultra was prepared for anything. That included capturing riders at the top of the mountain using 100x magnification or taking advantage of its groundbreaking Nightography enhancements — allowing for crystal-clear photos from the early morning to late at night.
