Expert verdict

The K2 Mindbender 106C Skis are a game-changer for all-mountain enthusiasts. What I love most is their versatility; they handle everything from groomers to powder with ease. The Spectral Braid Technology gives them a stable feel, while the Uni-Directional Flax ensures they track beautifully in varied conditions. At 106mm underfoot, they strike a perfect balance between carving and floating. They're lightweight yet powerful, making them a joy to maneuver. If you're looking for a ski that can do it all, the Mindbender 106C is a fantastic choice. Just be aware, they might feel a bit too lively for absolute beginners.

Joe knows!
5 /5
I was looking to upgrade my beginner set of skis (Atomic Cloud 9s) and had no idea where to begin. Joe asked all the right questions to help me narrow down what I wanted out of my next set. I needed skis with more stability while turning and at high speeds, and could handle the variety of snow/ice east coast winters bring. He gave me numerous recommendations within my budget, explained why he recommended them, and answered alllll my questions. In the end, I went with the Volkl Kenjas 88 and have been IN ABSOLUTE HEAVEN this winter. Thanks, Joe!

I came to curated because my local ski shops said my feet were too big to fit into anything they carried. They didnt offer me any alternatives, so I took to the internet. I am so grateful to have found Thomas because he worked with me to find the perfect set. I am so grateful for his time and expertise and I cannot wait to receive my new gear. Thank you Thomas!

Casey was awesome and very patient with me. I appreciate that as I drug my purchase out for a few days as life got in the way...but whenever I messaged her, she was there and awesome!! I'm usually ask a lot of questions and she was always quick to answer and seemed eager to answer more if I had them.

Ben is clearly passionate about skiing and getting people into the right stuff. As someone who has never shopped for ski equipment, I was daunted by all of the options available. Ben considered my experience and history as well as goals to ensure I was kitted out properly. Thank you Ben and I appreciate the attention and time!

Expert Guidance – Dave is the Best!
5 /5
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can't say enough good things about my experience working with Dave! I was in the market for a new snowboard and accessories, and Dave went above and beyond to help me find exactly what I needed. He was super knowledgeable, patient, and took the time to understand my riding style and preferences. Not only did he recommend a board that's perfect for me, but he also helped me pick out the right bindings, boots, and even some extras to enhance my setup. His advice was spot-on, and I never felt pressured—just guided by someone who really knows their stuff. If you're looking for expert advice and personalized service, Dave is the one to talk to. Highly recommend!

5 /5
Luke was very helpful as I am new to skiing but I feel as if I'm acclimating faster than the average person. I wanted to get something a little more advanced that I could grow into quickly and it also be useful for all-mountain usage. At first I thought I had made my decision prior to talking to him about getting Volkl mantra 88's, but I determined with his help that a larger waist was going to be a more versatile ski for me in the Rockies. A few conversations later, I fell into the Rustler 9's instead of using Volkl mantra 88's or mantra 7's. He really helped push me in the right direction so I could make a targeted approach. Thanks a bunch Luke. When I get my next skis to diversify my quiver I will give you a jingle!

Don’t wanna ask anyone but Taylor!
5 /5
Taylor was the most helpful person I’ve ever bought gear from. Dude knows everything there is to know. The best part about Taylor and Curated is that you’re talking to someone real through your phone/computer. Being from FL we don’t have the luxury of going into a ski shop. This was even better than that! 10/10 recommend Taylor and Curated. They hooked me up with such a sick set up and at a great price!

I had an amazing experience working with Frankie to find the right snowboarding gear. He was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire process. No matter what questions I had or how many times I switched up what I was looking for, he adapted seamlessly and never missed a beat. He was always available when I needed guidance, making the whole experience smooth and stress-free. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely knows their stuff and is dedicated to helping you find exactly what you need, Frankie is the person to go to! Highly recommend!

5 /5
I ski in Killington Vt where they are known to have extremely knowledgeable skiers/boarders, coaches etc. and they do to a degree but I will tell you that Ben was more helpful than all of them. I was told so many different things that didn't really line up with what I noticed when I demo'd skis but everything Ben said about the ski's I demo'd was spot on. I am grateful to have found him and will share my experience with others. Great guy - he worked hard and answered more questions that I would imagine he would care to but he answered them all and hung in there with me right through the end. If I am ever in Alaska, I hope to meet him and take some runs with him sometime!
