Cooper Hazen
What's up, I'm Cooper! I'm from the suburbs of Salt Lake City. I love snowboarding and have loved it ever since I started back in the 1st grade. It has been my passion for over 20 years, with multiple jobs in the outdoor industry as a ski and snowboard technician for Whisper Ridge Backcountry Ski Resort in Utah to teaching anyone and everyone how to snowboard as an instructor for Snowbasin Ski Resort. I am an all-mountain rider, whether it be trees, chowder, park, or the backcountry. I love it all. Off the mountain, I work for Real Salt Lake, the professional soccer team in Utah.
I learned how to ski about 5 years ago, and people always ask me which I like more. I tell them skiing is like a passionate love affair, but snowboarding will always have my heart! Deep down, you always know what is right and what you love.
Let's get you set up on something that you will love this season!

Cooper made this so easy!
I am a super indecisive person, but Cooper made this so smooth and easy. Having it narrowed down to a few custom choices made it so nice, and when I requested a hybrid of the options he sent, he had the perfect board ready to go! I'm so excited to ride my new set up. He was super kind while I asked a bunch of questions and very knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend him.

Nicolle's experience with Cooper
Cooper was super helpful and so patient when I was kind of picky with how I wanted my board to look. I have only ever rented and had no idea where to begin with buying but Cooper made it a breeze!

Good to have an expert looking out for your needs!
Cooper knows his stuff and it’s easy to feel his passion for the sport! I’d be stoked to share a drink and a powder day with the dude!

Best help I’ve received
If you are a beginner and looking for your first board, Cooper is your guy. He’s very knowledgeable in advising clients (especially ones who don’t much) which is an affordable bang for buck board. Not only that, any questions feel free to ask him as he gives you his best opinion for what your looking for. He gives great explanation of why you should go with a certain product . Then most importantly he values the clients journey and takes his time in helping out no matter how long it takes!

Coop the man

Cooper was dope!
Cooper was very responsive and knowledgeable! I had bought some gear from him a couple weeks ago and he remembered who I was when I came back asking for some more recommendations! He was very responsive and got the gear I needed super quick with some great comparisons! He even helped me get a price match on one of my items! Great expert and he really wants you to get the lowest price possible. 10/10 would recommend Cooper to anyone looking for some new gear!
