I recently got this board and was skeptical about the purchase because this was my first board away from my usual brand. Since then, I've sent a good few ride days in rocky mountain powder on this board, and it's been RAD! It's so playful without being too soft and feeling damp. The board does exactly what I want (it's... Read more

Slaying Ice and Taking Names!
Originally posted at neversummer.com on Feb 27, 2024I wasn’t even in the market for a new board before I demoed the ‘24 Women’s Proto Synthesis. But after test riding one I couldn’t imagine my life without it! To my delight I received the board for Christmas. My first day on it I nailed a 180 front side nose roll that I had been working on since last season. I quickly mastered that, added board grabs to my repertoire and now I’ve started landing jump 180s consistently, regular & switch. I’m even getting cheers from the chairs when riding under lifts. Those of you who have been riding for a while know what incredibly high praise that is. I don’t want to speak poorly of another brand but my last board was one of the consistently best rated boards on the market but I don’t think I’ve ever progressed as fast as I have since I started riding my Proto Synthesis. I have nothing but praise for this board. She responds like a good dance partner and I’m able to quickly maneuver as needed. It turns, pivots & spins like an extension of my own body, yet I am still able to carry my speed over cat tracks without the board trying to squirrel into a turn or try to fishtail. I am also able to butter without the tail trying to swing around.
This has not been the best snow year for the Summit County Colorado resorts. I’m a very good rider but my last board had slipped out from under me on ice several times earlier in this season, even with freshly sharpened edges. I was starting to become a bit fearful and my love for the sport was beginning to decline. I was interested in the ‘24 over the ‘23 because it has slightly better bite on ice. I wanted anything that would help prevent further bruising to my rear end. I am please to report that I haven’t slipped on ice once since this lovely lady came into my life. This went from a horrible season to one of the best I’ve had because of this new board!
The Never Summer customer service has been amazing as well. Joey at the demo stand did a fantastic job of qualifying me for the right board according to my skill level and riding style. Vance has been incredibly responsive and helpful when I ask questions through the web page chat. Never Summer has rightfully earned my loyalty and I am happy to be supporting a local, home grown company. Ladies, do yourself a favor and demo one of these boards. I’m 5’3”, 120lbs and riding a 139.

5 /5
There’s some type of feeling that you get when you feel taken care of when buying something whether that be in store or online. Victor continuously does just that! I came back and he never let me down. Response time is great, knowledgeable, friendly, and an all around great guy. He was able to narrow down so many options based on my experience level and abilities along with what I’m searching for in the product. Come to find out he demo’d the product I got and he mentioned to me that he enjoys the product arguably more than what he’s riding. I will be returning when I’m in need of something else and I will be rekindling my friendship with Victor!

The robots failed me in my initial chat experience so Ryan stepped in. At first I was very nervous about this entire process but he listened to everything I said and tailored my build to suit my needs. He was kind and attentive in answering all of my questions, and even recommended some other gear that I've been searching for. I knew buying my own equipment for the first time ever was going to be expensive but I believe I am getting my money's worth for the value of the kit he put together. Thank you, Ryan, for giving me a chance and being patient with me. I hope your boss reads this and buys you lunch. You deserve it.

I couldn’t be more impressed! From the moment we started, Jared’s extensive knowledge and genuine passion for snowboarding shone through. He took the time to understand my needs and recommendations that perfectly suited me.
Jared’s expertise is remarkable but beyond his knowledge, Jared was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to ensure I had the best experience.

Alec was great. He was able to help so much. I have been looking to buy skis for 3 years now and didn't have an idea on where to start on this site. I knew that there was some cost to invest in a good pair of skis... but WOW thanks to Alec I was able to find some great deals for skis and also could get a nicer fitting jacket this season. That fit into my budget. Thank you!

I felt like I made an online friend with Jonny 👏
5 /5
I was Googling what size snowboard to buy for my son, and continued on by opening Curated’s website. Jonny popped up in the chat to ask how he could help. He asked a lot questions beyond my sons’s weight and height to “curate” his top picks of equipment. How long he has been boarding, his ability level, his age, what type of boarder he is, and where on the mountains he spends his time. He addressed my concern that my son is still not finished growing and that I need equipment to grow with him. He selected a board that not only would allow my son to enhance his skills with the responsiveness of the board, but allow him 3-4 seasons on it as he grows. The questions and answers back and forth were numerous and sometimes even extremely funny from both of us! I know Jonny has a job to do and he’s selling me a product, but the interaction was enjoyable, fun and informative. If all the folks at Curated are as enjoyable to work with as Jonny, kudos to this company. Shipping time is extremely fast. I have the boots and bindings and the board is out for delivery as I write this. All equipment will arrive in under a weeks time. Thank you Jonny, and Happy snow Trails to you.

Mike was very helpful when trying to select a board and binding combo for me. A lot has changed in 26 years. With all the tech and terminology, my head was spinning. Mike explained every detail and took all my info to come up with a ultimate combo to match my ability and riding style. Awesome shopping experience. Thanks Mike.
