Tanner J

I am originally from Minnesota and moved to Colorado when I was a kid. The first thing I did when I got to CO was bought a used, worn-down Airwalk snowboard and some old clip-in bindings. As soon as I got on that board I became obsessed. Many years and dozen's of trashed boards later, I have built the knowledge and expertise needed to get you fitted perfectly with the gear you need to start your own obsession.

For the past 15 years I have been riding all over Colorado from Loveland to Telluride and have ridden every sort of terrain. I recently lived down in Crested Butte and spent 80+ days boarding a season. In that time I worked at a high volume ski and snowboard shop demo-ing all types of snowboards and helping people find their perfect gear. Now I find myself in beautiful Evergreen, CO and ride all over Summit county. I love everything about this industry, and am confident I can help you find the perfect gear at the best price possible!

Tanner is the man!

Being out of snowboarding for so many years, and finally coming back to it, I found myself a little overwhelmed by the evolution of boards, bindings, boots, and gear. Tanner wasted no time getting me set up with great recommendations for everything I'll need to get back on the mountain! Thanks again, Tanner for all your help!
