Please consider donating to Love is King @lik_free2roam - Blackwaters team of participants engaged through the Love is King program named Operation Roam (Rapid Ongoing Advance Missions) The mission is to provide an opportunity for BIPOC individuals (21 and over) to build outdoor leadership and advocate for public land and freshwater conservation. Historically, BIPOC voices were not invited into government, congressional, or decision-making spaces regarding wildlife and indigenous policies, recreation, permitting, land management, and advocacy in the outdoors. Support us Love is King; continue to do this important work. Blackwaters encompasses the power of five Black men whose paths have been challenged with loss, defeat, fear, and pain by life’s ups and downs and the social injustice that Black men and Black boys face daily. They have fallen into an “endangered species,” only surviving daily. Through surviving life’s trials, each man has found grace and success in the outdoors, healed and mended by nature’s medicine to the soul, embracing the art of fly fishing and building brotherhood. Blackwater is an expedition a journey in the Gates Of The Arctic Circle National Park, adventure, a vision quest, and a fly fishing adventure that surpasses the color of their skin, connecting to the fundamentals of nature, the poetry of life, and prosperous joy. Like indigenous communities, they find self-fulfillment in being outdoors. They find their representation and hold space for everyone, especially inspiring young Black boys. It is a dual survival between black boys who can not make the connection to a black man in the outdoors due to lack of representation and black men finding representation in wild spaces to call their own. Hopefully, these youths can see themselves and be inspired to embark on their journeys into the outdoors. The concept is a tactically crafted story in dialogue and adventure, emphasizing dismantling the fear of BIPOC and inspiring BIPOC to pursue their journey outdoors and uplift black boys’ lives in green spaces.

Escape is the second movie coming out of the Colorado based FlowStateCrew. The movie has evolved from showing off what it takes to get out and do what they do, to actually a true Core snowboard movie showcasing some of Colorado’s finest snowboarders stepping away from everyday life to head into the backcountry and ride the way they love most. The film brings together pros like Seth Hill and Chris Corning, rising talents such as Hayden Tyler, and dedicated locals including Corbin Hladick, Nicki Weiss, and Ty Dewitt. Rather than chasing the industry spotlight or relying on snowboarding’s biggest names, Escape turns its focus to the riders who are putting in the time and effort simply because they love it. That shift makes the film more relatable while also proving there’s a whole world of snowboarders outside the contest scene who can ride big lines, go huge off jumps, and still bring the fun that makes a snowboard movie worth watching. Escape was filmed over the course of 40 days, 100% in Colorado. While much of the Core snowboard scene has moved to Utah and Washington, there is still a very active scene in CO and the FlowStateCrew is working hard to bring it together and showcase as many great riders and locations possible. This grit before fame, and get it done mentality has produced some amazing content and were excited to show it off.
