Full Moon
Be inspired by women who push boundaries. FULL MOON showcases the legends, current icons and future prodigies of this ever-evolving lifestyle sport. Seven of the world’s best female snowboarders join forces for the first time ever to explore their backyard, the backcountry of magnificent British Columbia. We are inspired through the intimate, heart-felt stories through the eyes of some of the most influential females in our sport. Full Moon is a two-year film project documenting the past, present, and future of women's snowboarding. For the first time, some of the best women riders in the sport will work together as a crew to push their limits and capture the camaraderie and adventure that comes with it. Through interviews and resurrected classic footage, Runway Films is producing a film that pays tribute to the history of women's snowboarding and showcases how it has influenced and encouraged the current state of the sport.
The Snowboarder Movie: SFD
SFD is not just a saying. It’s a movement. An ideology. An approach. A choice made deliberately to dedicate one’s life to snowboarding’s counter-culture philosophy. Last winter, SNOWBOARDER Magazine hand-picked sixteen riders whom we believed to encompass this philosophy and sent them around the world to make the best snowboard movie of the year. From Japan to Canada and the United States to Europe, the SFD crew found the deepest powder, the darkest city streets and the most pristine park jumps to showcase their world-renowned skills on and the result is a snowboard film that will be talked about for ages. Tag along as Bryan Fox, Forest Bailey, Hans and Nils Mindnich, Jess Kimura, Mark Sollors, Ethan Deiss, Jake Olson-Elm, Scott Blum, Lucas Magoon, Blake Paul, Dustin Craven, Jake Blauvelt, Jess Kimura, Iikka Backstrom, Jake Welch and friends show the world why they’re not just committed to snowboarding…they’re SFD for life.
