Big love & gratitude to everyone who came through to the genesis Winter Get Down presented by TheGoodLife!
It all panned out to be a beautiful meeting of the minds that took place Upstate, NY at the Glen Falls House boutique lodge + hotel situated on 47 acres of stunning hiking trails and waterfalls. Upon arrival we were blessed with a fresh blanket of snow that created a Winter Wonderland for NYC based creatives, photographers, DJs, producers, and hustlers to come get funky with some of the worlds best pro snowboarders + players in the action sports industry.
We kicked it all off with a Welcome Party for our guests at the Burton NYC Flagship Store in SoHo where Skratch Bastid hosted his weekly 5 hour Tuesday Morning Coffee livestream (55+ weeks in a row!) that featured a special guest appearance and a proper send off by one of New York’s finest, Gorilla Nems!
Beginners and experts came together to enjoy two full days of shredding at Hunter Mountain, followed by the warmest après hangs featuring world class cuisine at Glen Falls House Trotwood Restaurant by youngest Michelin Star chef, Joey Elenterio, plus music by our special guest selectors: Quantic, Skratch Bastid, Angel+Dren, Fly Hendrix b2b Willy Soul + prominent Brooklyn DIY party crews, Funky Seshwa and Golden Record NYC.
None of this would be possible without the gracious support from our family of brand partners, Burton Snowboards, Hudson Whiskey, Fat Tire , Fruit Smash, Matchbook Distilling Co., Frühling and Buddies Botanicals. Thank you all so much for keeping our thirst quenched, our grooves properly funded and special shoutout to Buddies Botanicals for the CBD Salve + THC products that kept all the riders and dancers extra loose!
