Summary
Summary of this article
  • Red Bull athlete Mathilde Gremaud is in focus for her new documentary

  • It's be titled as 'She Who Flies'

  • The film explores Gremaud’s evolution as a generational talent

Red Bull athlete Mathilde Gremaud (Switzerland), 25, is the focus of She Who Flies, a new 45-minute documentary directed by Matt Pain, premiering worldwide on Red Bull TV on 17 November 2025.

The film explores Gremaud’s evolution as a generational talent who has redefined women’s freeskiing – from pioneering the Switch Double Cork 1440 (two flips and four horizontal rotations, launched and landed backwards) to becoming the first female athlete to win three FIS World Cup Crystal Globes in a single season.

With her trademark precision and creativity, Gremaud makes the extraordinary look effortless, yet She Who Flies reveals the demanding reality behind the medals: major knee surgery in 2017, the departure of her long-time coach, family heartbreak, and coping with anxiety. Through candid narration and interviews with coaches, family, and fellow athletes, the film offers a rare look at the mindset required to stay at the top of an evolving sport.

At just 25, Gremaud has achieved what few athletes dream of: two World Championship titles (2023, 2025), three X Games golds (2017, 2019, 2021), and Olympic gold, silver, and bronze (2022) – all while continuously pushing the progression of women’s freeskiing.
