Dylan is committed to ensuring you are in the best fit possible, so all you have to think about is how much fun you're having.

Anastasia

Anastasia is a native of Bellvue, Washington, but has been part of the Denver scene since Fall 2018. She honed her skiing skills on the slopes of Alpental, but the call of the Colorado mountains was too much to resist. She is currently working on her master's degree in Environmental Sustainability at the University of Boulder. If she's not studying, hooking guests up with fantastic fits and footbeds, or climbing, she is probably making her own beer and pickles.

Barry

Here he fell in love with skiing and found enjoyment solving ski boot problems for skiers of all types. Barry has journeyed through a handful of Colorado ski shops over the years, each stop further developing his boot fitting craft. He likes a cup of coffee, chairlift rides with strangers, scenic views and thrilling mountain descents with friends.

Sands

Sands grew up racing east coast ice in Pennsylvania until the call of higher peaks and softer snow brought him to Colorado. His Penn State race tenure only increased his passion for winter sports leading to his Masterfit certifications and career in adventure sports. Sands’ goal as a boot fitter is for you to want to spend as much time in your boots as out of them, and with ski days every week of the year to his name, he knows how to make it work. On his off days, you can find him touring with his dog, Nala, or chasing the elusive 100k vert day.
