My dog Vida and I eating pow
Tony Berner
Hey hey ski fam! I've been living in Jackson, WY for the past six years and have zero plans on leaving. In the winter I work as a ski instructor and a bartender in order to maximize my free skiing time (I've proudly hacked to umpth degree the ski bum life!). I have been building skills and working for bigger and bigger back country/ski mountaineering lines over the past 6 years, but with that said I do remember what it was like to be a beginner. I am from Pennsylvania and did not grow up skiing. It is a passion I realized later in high school and college. So although I might be considered an expert by some I remember all the trials that beginners go through, especially when it comes to buying gear. So, whether you're an expert skier looking for new gear or are brand new to the ski world, I can help you.
If I am paired with you as an expert just know that _I want you to have the best experience possible on the mountain. _Many of the most fulfilling days of my life have been spent in snowy hills on skis. So, trust me when I say I will do everything I can to help you have the same experiences.
Lastly...if you need to know anything about skiing with dogs in your backpack I'm your guy!!

Patrick's experience with Tony
Tony Berner was phenomenal in helping my whole family. He answered all my questions and concerns. Tony even brought up things that I didn't even think of. He genuinely cared about our skill levels and what would work for us now and in the future. He went above and beyond to ensure we got the correct equipment.

I was given a $50 credit by a friend who tipped his expert very graciously. It took several days to have the issue resolved in order for me to be able to use my $50 credit. I'm calling customer service, associates were very unhelpful. Upon emailing customer service, customer service was unable to help. I'm sure my expert had just as much issues with tech support as what I was having.

Tony was awesome. He's friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and was very diligent and quick to respond and answer questions. Most importantly, he was inquisitive, and I could tell he cared about finding the right gear to fit my needs. He gave plenty of options, being considerate of cost constraints and specifications. He continued to make adjustments based on my feedback to accurately curate a list of recommendations which I can confidently say I would be happy choosing any of.

Tony to the rescue!
I have really narrow and small feet (borderline junior size ski boots). It's been difficult to find good fitting boots because they didn't have my size). My rentals have always been ill-fitting. Tony really helped me throughout the process and found a pair of ski boots for me meant for narrow feet. Though I have not received the ski boots, the experience with Tony has been great! If the boots work out, I will definitely invest in the full ski package with Tony!

Professional and Easy to work with
Tony answered all my questions, gave me the pros and cons of my top 2, and helped me pick the right size. I’m going to look in person for the skis since I need them in a few days! Confident in making the right choice! Excited to be able to go all mountain after not really skiing for several years while my little one got up to speed!!

Very cool guy
I just bumped into the website doing a Google search and got paired with Tony. Although I am not even situated in the United States, he was really friendly and responsive and gave me all the info I needed, including great gear recommendations.

Big purchases like a new pair of skis require maximum certainty, and Tony gave me the utmost confidence in his expertise and his ski recommendation. I can’t thank him enough for taking time to answer my several follow-up questions and I am confident that I will unwaveringly trust my gear in all the new terrain I plan on shredding in the Mountain West. He even made sure to hunt for discounts so I got the absolute best deals. Can’t thank you enough, Tony!

Ordered a set of Marker bindings for my new ski purchased. Curated worked with me to beat a competitors price and the product came as advertised and on time. I will definitely be shopping with Curated for all of my future gear needs.

Tony was great, I’m going to try out the glove liners he recommended! And although I ended up getting my new skis/bindings from my local shop…Alex was also super helpful in getting me pointed in the right direction of what kind of skis I was looking for! Many thanks to both of you!

Tony was amazing! I can’t wait to get my new skis and I feel confident the new length will help me tremendously… I believe I would have continued to have stability issues without his expert advice. Thanks, Tony!
