Phil Chandler
Hidden Valley, PA. 14 Years young. Our family had just moved to the East Coast. We went on a ski trip with the youth group from Carlisle Barracks. We joked about finding salad dressing at Hidden Valley, but we found something else: A true brother and sisterhood with a passion for gravity and snow.
I've been hooked since.

Phil is the MAN
Phil from the start, was awesome. Fun. Helpful. Thoughtful. And was just wonderful to work with. Incredibly responsive and worked to help me with an entire setup for skiing.
Only thing better would be able to meet in person and hit the slopes together!
I already sent one referral for him and will continue. Don’t even consider working with another company or person… JUST CALL PHIL!

Jarod's experience with Phil
Great so far. I never thought I would purchase skis, boots, and bindings on the internet. Phil was very helpful and made the process very easy.

Julie's experience with Phil
Phil is awesome. He asked the right questions and adjusted his recommendations as he learned more about me. He sent helpful reminders but wasn't pushy.

Phil, one word patient! No seriously so patient with an indecisive female. Your wife is lucky!
