Brett K.
My very first snowboard was a pawn shop Burton board from the 80s with a pointy nose and short tail, and an aggressive powder style setup...for riding the east coast. Needless to say, I've learned a lot about the sport since then. I really started riding regularly in high school, when my mind was bent on rock and roll and any type of sport that had the word "board" in the name.
I've worked on and off at ski resorts on the east coast both in the rentals and snowboarding instructor roles. Being an instructor has allowed me to closely analyze every aspect of snowboarding, and spark my love for the sport on a deeper level.
When I'm not snowboarding, I spend my time playing bluegrass music, hiking/backpacking, and trail running. I'll take just about any excuse to get out into the mountains for days or weeks at a time!

The BEST experience!
I knew very very little about snowboards or what I wanted and the many options out there felt overwhelming. Brett was super helpful in helping me figure out what I would want/need out of a board that would last me for years so I could grow in my skill level without needing to replace the gear, all while staying within my budget! He put up with lots of questions from me along the way, helped me price match, and made my first experience with Curate and snowboard purchasing a fabulous one! Would recommend to anyone and have recommended to several friends already!

Brett was super helpful!
With so many snowboards out there, I had no idea where to start when looking to upgrade my beginner board. After asking me some follow-up questions and getting a feel for my preferences, Brett recommended several great boards that had exactly the characteristics I was looking for. I can't wait to shred with my new board!

Kept me in the loop for over a year.
Haven’t given my daughter the board yet. It’s for Xmas. The one she wanted Brett said was too advanced for her so recommended another one instead so we will see how she likes it. Got the board but haven’t unwrapped it yet. The binding came yesterday. My daughter was there and received the package. She said it wasn’t taped very well. Actually opened. She’s in packaging so she said that was unacceptable how it was sent so she wanted me to pass that along. I told her not to open it so when I get back I’ll check if everything was ok

Brett is amazing and works wonders!
Brett is so dope, respectful, kind and a wonderful human being who is understanding and empathetic. He listens and goes out of his way to accommodate my needs. He found me a really cool heated snowboard boot and a dope helmet as well as a great recommendation for a bind. I so so appreciate all of your help Brett. You’re so awesome!! Keep up the amazing work and thanks for listening

Brett was AMAZING
Man hooked me up and walked me through some really good gear and gave me an extensive amount to choose from. Most definitely one of the best experiences with customer service I've ever had in my life. I would 100% recommend him for any of your snow sport needs.

Brett was very helpful
Brett was great. He helped narrow down the wide range of boards and gear to options that cater specifically to my riding style and what I'm looking for. Bought some boots and looking to pick up another board soon!

Brett is the MAN!!
By far the best experience I have ever had when talking to an expert, and not just for snowboarding, that goes for anything I have ever bought. He knew exactly what to search for and what to throw my way, I had a ton of options and was not pressured into buying anything. He gave me true opinions on what he thought would be best for me and my style of riding, will definitely be back in the future and I recommend him for future use.
