I am a devout outdoorsman and love skiing above any other activity in my life! I have spent 7 years helping people like me pick out their skis, gear, and even trips to enjoy the outdoors -- my dedication goes beyond my passion. When snow is falling you can find me backflipping the wave at snowbird or cruising down Alta's wildcat on a 20 inch powder day. If it is steep and has snow on it I will ski it!
Beyond skiing, I have a dedication towards fitness, wellness, and preservation of our peaks and trails. If snow is not present I am biking, camping or selling houses. I value relationships and people above all else.
I look forward to fueling your passion and being a part of your next outdoor adventure! I will see you out there!

Tracy's experience with Ethan
I felt Ethan was knowledgeable and helpful. He really wanted to make sure my equipment is exactly what I was shopping for, that it fit my abilities, the conditions that I ski on and will allow me to continue to work on techniques/skills. I appreciate how he engaged in learning about me to find the right equipment for me..

Tracy's experience with Ethan
I am entirely pleased with my experience with Curated. Ethan was extremely helpful and interested in what I was looking for in new skis to fit my abilities and conditions I ski. I’m excited for the upcoming season with my new skis and hopeful he and I have chosen the perfect ski for me; now just waiting to take those first turns!

Great recommendations, thoughts, interactions
Ethan was very responsive, listened, and asked great questions to dial in picks for my style/climate. Unfamiliar with this site/service I ended up shopping around and reading other reviews from industry and customers of the products Ethan recommended. His picks were well confirmed for what I was looking for and at the best price point around. Next time I'll trust the process and skip extensive research. Thanks Ethan, wishing you some sick turns this coming weather.

Jeremy C's experience with Ethan
He got to know a bit about our ability and what we want in a day on the mountain. Hw picked out some great equipment that was in our price range. I would have never been able to find what I needed without his help. We will think of him whenever we have a epic day and know he helped to make it possible. Thanks

First Ski Touring/Backcountry ski setup!
I've been a skier for more than 20 years but am making my first step into the backcountry and ski mountaineering.
Ethan walked me through picking skis, bindings, boots and skins and was gracious enough to answer questions and help me navigate the myriad of gear combinations, making sure I am setup for success.
We were able to find some good last season deals, but also put together what I'd consider a "no-compromises" setup! Hoping this setup will last me a very long time!
Thanks again!

So helpful in selection and professional advice
First, I was so surprised by such detailed help. Ethan very quickly select a few of options for me, specialized on varied ski conditions. All were with pretty great deal. He even provided a short narrative video to explain his selection for me.
Particularly, for a beginner like me, I was planing to focus on developing carving skills and want to play powder terrain, which are two opposite direction of skis selection. He explained these rationale very patiently and also give some examples/scenarios for better understanding
Besides, he is a knowledgable and nice expert that teach me many essential and critical ski techs, which are not supposed to be his duty. I feel I was taking an online private lesson.

Very helpful!
Ethan put together an awesome deck of 3 ski boot options that fit my budget, expertise, and aesthetic desires. He asked thoughtful questions about things I didn’t even know to ask about to help curate my suggestions. He also kindly followed up to make sure I was taken care of.

Anders's experience with Ethan
Website was a bit sluggish. Expert was helpful in selecting products that fit my needs. I cross referenced other opinions, reviews, and prices. He he made a good recommendation that my 1-2 hours of research confirmed. Next time I'll trust the Curated process and go lighter on the side research.

Expert curator!
I'd been contemplating buying my own skis and boots for far too long. After years of going back-and-forth about it and not knowing where to start, let alone how to decide, Ethan helped me narrow down a list of options over time and feel confident choosing an awesome set tailored to fit my needs. No more shin pain from rental boots. Thank you Ethan!

Awesome experience!!! Ethan is great!
I need it all new equipment, as mine was varying between 10 and 15 years old. I wanted someone to guide me in finding the best skis and equipment. In the past 15 years, I’ve changed a lot as a skier (for the best! tree/glade runs and powder galore), and I needed my gear to reflect that (my skis were for groomed trails).
Ethan helped me pick out beautiful, skis, boots, and bindings. They are much more tailored to my ski level and preference. Can’t wait for the season to start!
Ethan is patient, responsive, and really knowledgable. I recommend Curated, and shopping with Ethan!!! I saved so much time and $$- and my equipment looks… gorgeous!! thanks for your help, Ethan!!!
