Fueled by Family

EZ FLATE started the way a lot of good things do: by accident.  It wasn’t part of some master plan; it started in our garage after a TikTok went viral, and things escalated (in the best way).

What began as a solution for our own trail days has grown into a family-run business built by siblings, spouses, and a shared love for exploring the trails together. You can trust that we are hitting the trails, testing our own gear, and standing behind every order. At the end of the day, it’s not just about air systems: it’s about building something together as a family and making incredible memories along the way.

Meet the Fam

The Carrs: EZ FLATE is powered by Dustin—Founder, Team Spotter, and co-dog extraordinaire—and Chelsie—Marketing Manager, Chaos Coordinator, and everyone’s Big Sister (real or honorary) One comes up with ideas, the other makes sure you actually hear about them. Somehow, between the two of them, really good air systems happen, and people find out about them. When they aren't trying to figure out where the point-of -sale system is, you can catch them on the trails in their '01 XJ, Dinah, and their '21 JLU 392, Karma.

The Davis Family: Preston leads R&D, doubles as the Garage Karaoke King, and drives our race car #4648 like he's escaping a zombie apocalypse. Katie keeps customers happy as our Customer Service Manager, while also serving as the funniest trail commentator and reliable team spotter. Their daughters, Preslee & Sadie, spend most of their time in the garage, helping dad do "EZ FLATE work." Together, they keep things dialed in and solve problems for everyone. Their fleet includes their '01 XJ, The Heep, The #4648 Race Rig, and their cute '76 CJ, Sugar. 

The Plumbs: Ryan is our graphic & website designer, head of recovery, and occasional wire cutter (on purpose… usually). Ashley runs media as our resident memory documentor and YouTube manager, gathering footage from every adventure we go on as a family. He makes it look good, she makes it memorable—and together they keep the story going. Their kids, Riley & Owen, love handing out swag (and playing in the dirt) at the booth during expos. Watch their whole family take the trails on in their '11 JKU, Cheeto.

Jake from EZ FLATE: Jake runs our sales & partnership program, brings the heat on the trail as our resident smoke show (yes, he's single ladies,) and will absolutely get it done on 35's. If you’ve talked to us, there’s a good chance you’ve talked to Jake—and yes, he probably sold you on a system. You can watch him make every obstacle look doable in his '15 JKU, Ghost. 

More trail time, less air time—that’s why we started, and it’s still what drives us today. Every order supports a family chasing a dream we built together, one step (and one trail) at a time. From our garage to your rig, thank you for being part of the journey. We wouldn’t be here without you.
