Flanel Lifestyles "Efforts"

  Flanel Lifestyle's Mike Harrington has faithfully produced Michigan Snowboarding videos about as long as People has been a snowboard store. He's non-stop productive season after season. Pushing through the years where we have had tons of snow, to the seasons where it has been bone dry or rainy. Scraping together snow, like he scrapes together an edit or full length. It is the effort that makes the project and with that, he brings us his last Michigan Snowboard video. Mike is moving west on to bigger slopes and we couldn't be more stoked for him!

"Holly Melting" edit by John Kubiak

Mt. Holly has been good to the michigan snowboard scene and is coming into a more solid stride this season. Without a doubt, it relates to the excellent team of park groomers, builders, and riders taking care of it (a few of whom work at or ride for the shop). While old man winter really didn't cooperate with us this season, they still were in a constant state of hard work making the best park they could. Holly officially called it quits for the season, but will be back next year with something great!Check out John Kubiak's edit featuring: Trevor Newman, Nick Puffer, Brandon Ash, Scott Smith, Matt Ruhle, and Mitch Kirby shredding on the last day here this season. We're looking...

Baby Teaser

Dominic Palarchio (Filmin' February 2015 winner), Addison Beeker, and Brandon Ash (Daggers event winner) are combining efforts to drop a full length snowboard video called, "Baby" slated to be finished in 2016. Baby teaser from Dominic Palarchio on Vimeo. While a human baby takes only 9 months, something this good is just going to have to gestate a bit longer. I promise, it will be worth the wait. Featuring everyone who works at the shop and many of Michigan's finest, I have no doubt this baby will be one for the record books.
