\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s a TheGoodLife! tradition that’s been going down for more than 15 years – our annual pilgrimage to the US Open of Snowboarding<\/a> in Stratton, Vermont<\/a>. Hosted by Jake Burton and the entire staff of Burton Snowboards<\/a>, the Open is the last great East Coast event in shred and still standing strong after 30 years! And while not every year gets blessed with the supreme combination of weather, ill shredding, and parties, this year all three aligned to perfection. From our sponsored transportation by MINI<\/a> to the shred-fest timewarp that was the Washed Up Cup to a morning gondola run with Jake and the Brooklyn OPS crew to the blowout show from Redman and Method Man followed by all night dominoes<\/a> at the Blotto Photto<\/a> Insta Pop Up Gallery, it was an Open for the history books. Without further ado, please enjoy our trip in pictures by Craig Wetherby<\/a>. Until next year…<\/p>\n
