Exploring steep lines in AK
Luke H.
If my parents could have foreseen how deep my obession for skiing would become, they might never have put me on skis.
I've been fortunate enough to experience the entire spectrum of skiing; from growing up racing on icy Midwest slopes, to exploring every nook and cranny of the Wasatch Range backcountry in Utah, and on to skiing from the summit of 20,310' Mount Denali.
Through it all, I've relied on my skills, my partners — and my gear. Our passion is what drives us. But our gear is what gets us to the top.

Helpful and personable!
Making a large purchase on a piece of equipment is fraught for a non-expert; Luke took the fear out of the decision, provided a number of recommendations across different price points, and really listened to what I was looking for! This service is excellent, and I deeply appreciate Luke's expertise and recommendations in making this decision!

Luke was awesome!
He was great at answering all of my questions and even checked back in with me as I was trying to figure out the best deal for me at my price point. I appreciated that he was very open to explaining all the best options and found me some great deals - never once did he push for the newsest most expensive option, he made it so I understood the price point and the pros and cons for every item.

Excellent resource and knowledge base
Luke was able to find a great package deal based on my requests and experience and was very patient working through my questions and I'm very excited to get out and ski. While I haven't tried them yet a friend was very impressed and also thought this was a great find.

SO EASY
My main hesitation in not buying new skies for years was not having time to research. This was so painless and QUICK! I barely had to do anything, felt very comfortable with Luke's recommendations and like he really understood my spouse and I's differing needs. Well worth-it!

Jeff's experience with Luke
I'd done a bunch of research and cobbled together my recollections of various demo skis I'd tried but couldn't quite convince myself I was making the right decision. Luke helped redirect me to one of the options I'd considered, but not the one I was about to pull the trigger on. I felt like he really considered all the variables of age, size, and preferences and paired me with the best personal fit. Can't wait to try them!

Luke was awesome!
He really did help a lot in getting me a headstart on finding the right equipment for me as a first timer. You can tell he’s very knowledgeable and does a good job at personalizing his recommendations to your specific needs. It would’ve taken me way longer to find what I needed on my own. Thank you so much Luke!

Luke was amazing
This was my first ever time buying ski’s and look guided me through it like he was a city tour guide. You cannot get a better person than Luke on curated. I was able to text him like he was a friend and ask question about certain skis and he would answer always in a great response quickly.

Helen's experience with Luke
Offered options within my budget, and some a bit less or more to provide more choices. He asked a lot of questions about my skiing preferences and skill level to make best recommendations possible. Was knowledgeable and answered my questions. Even provided a video to further explain his recommendations. Good all around experience.
