Top of Vail right before dropping into the Gates!
Jason Lustine
I have been working with people since I was 13! At that age, I worked alongside the Park and Pipe crew at my local ski resort, Ski Whitetail.
When I turned 16, I worked alongside Ski Patrol at Whitetail, as well as alongside patrollers from many other ski resorts along the Eastern Seaboard such as Ski Liberty, Ski Roundtop, Elk Mountain, and Big Boulder. I now get to shred some of the greatest resorts, terrain parks, and backcountry mountains in the world including the Aspen, Breckenridge, Crested Butte, and Winter Park.
While not my career, I'm still a student, my side hobby has been consulting my friends and family and their immediate friends and family on which equipment they want to buy. This includes questions about the technology, where to find it, what's so great about it, and my own personal thoughts.
Having insight into the industry is more than just a hobby. I love to share the wealth of knowledge I've gathered from experts in the industry and guide people to have awesome shredding seasons like I have had since I was 13!
Keep on shredding!

Disbelief.
Jason is amazing. this entire experience is amazing. I got along with him very well, and he answered EVERY SINGLE QUESTION I had. Even picked out things that pertained to my personality mixed with his expertise. He was all around great to talk to and I can't wait to purchase some things off the list based on what he recommended. This is the best experience of customer service I've ever encountered.

Jason is the homie!
I didn’t know a thing about boards before I came across this site. When I was researching a board on my own it was overwhelming, but with Jason helping me by answering all my questions I finally picked the perfect board for me! Jason was super patient even when I kept going back and forth on what I wanted. When I’m ready to get bindings I will for sure ask that guy for advice.

Saved my trip!
I ordered a new board and had ordered some bindings from another retailer. My board showed up but the bindings never did. I got an email saying I’d been refunded bc the company I ordered from couldn’t fulfill the order. So I logged back on and jason responded immediately 6 days after we’d last talked! Got me a great deal and honestly an upgrade from what I was going to go with initially. Super helpful and didn’t up-sale me! Just gave me his honest opinion and let me make the decisions. Got my recommendations to me quickly but also took my own lists into consideration and help me settle on an amazing setup!

Great customer service
Being this is the first time using Curated. I had no idea what I would be getting into as far as experience would go. Jason most definitely delivered great customer service and also was able to speak on a more friend level, like you would meeting someone on a lift. Very happy with my experience, and definitely will be a returning shopper.

Jason was fantastic!
As a beginner at snowboarding I knew very little on what gear would be best for me. After talking to Jason about boards, bindings, and boots, I feel much more confident about taking the plunge and buying my own gear! He was very responsive and knowledgeable with all my questions. Highly recommend talking to Jason for all your snowboard needs!

Knowledgeable & Quick
First time with Curated & Jason and I were paired up. Because of my line of work, my responses were a little delayed - but regardless, we got a few options on the board and narrowed them
down. Unfortunately, I got a deal that I didn’t let Jason & his team try to beat - and ended up
purchasing elsewhere. Personally, if it weren’t for the fact that it was boxed and on the way, I would
have cancelled the order and gave Jason the sale (Jason came back with a price match and a more personal ownership)!
Long story short - Jason helped me out tremendously. Was super patient, knowledgeable, and understanding. Times are changing, sales are changing, and Jason figured it out!

Wasn’t sure what to expect. Awesome service!
So I thought this would be a machine operated service, and was really surprised and happy to hear from an actual person. Jason was super friendly, helpful and after just a brief introduction got down not only what gear would be best for me but also what fit into my style/aesthetic. Found the perfect board and bindings and set me on the right path for finding the type of boots I’ve been looking for. All in all, wicked helpful service. Thanks man!

This man is the best!
Jason is the best person ever to help you out with new equipment. He is very knowledgeable and knows exactly what you are looking for, he is also very funny and easy to talk to. He gave me a killer deal on some boots that just became available today, which I am very grateful for. He got me exactly what I needed and was very responsive and never kept me waiting. If you need new equipment go to this guy, he will not let you down. Thank you Jason.

Thank you for your help Jason!
I have been searching endlessly for a new snowboard to give as a gift. I have had many questions and also was trying to avoid having to go to the store. Jason was very helpful, answered my questions and narrowed down the options. I would not have purchased the board today without Jason's guidance. Thank you for your help!

Jason Crushed It
The responsiveness and knowledge he shared was what enable me to formulate a concise and educated decision on the products that would best fit me and what I enjoy doing. Was truly surprised as some times these types of services don't go as well on the customer service end but I appreciate the way in which my wants were met and my needs were satisfied.
