Back in 2014, professional fun-haver Casey Neistat tied a rope to the back of a Jeep and went snowboarding through New York City. Obviously he wasn't going to miss out on yesterday's winter whiteout—so watch below as Neistat snowboards around the city TO THE EXTREME during the Blizzard For The Ages. It looks very fun (and very extreme)!
In addition to picking up some fellow adventure-seeking skiers along the way, Neistat also had a very friendly run-in with police officers toward the end of the video. We also ran into Neistat as he was getting going at Broadway and Franklin Street yesterday afternoon. You can see another photo we took of him below—he really does look like Poochie in person!

You can see some behind-the-scenes footage from the shoot below.
Neistat wasn't the only person frolicking in the snow—in addition to the many cross-country skiers, we also ran into a snow dancer taking photos at Eastern Parkway in Crown Heights around 3:45 p.m. The woman was in pointe shoes, and looked very cold. Check out a video below.
