A Day at Blue Mountain Park with Hell Gate Studios

Little snow on the East Coast, but that doesn’t stop Hell Gate from sliding steel in the Poconos.

We're a long ways from February 2021, a freak month when NYC was hit with one of the biggest blizzards in five years. This gave a bunch of East Coasters the chance to "turn city spots into their playground," and what came of that analogy was their first self-titled street video.

Since then, Hell Gate has filmed more clips in the Big Apple, but this year's looking a bit grim for any city boarding. Instead of blizzards, 30° mornings turn to balmy afternoons, and at this point most resorts look like Blue Mountain. That is, strips of snow somehow constitute full runs, and with seemingly no distinction between park and other trails, we're glad to see Hell Gate taking advantage of the steel in the midst of all the madness.

Here's your sign to head to the Poconos, dodge some skiers, and get those clips.
