Five years of testing and refinement, ten different iterations, and an untold number of days, mountain ranges, and descents.
The Goat—a big-mountain charger that pro rider Bjorn Leines called the best board he's ever ridden—is the original Cardiff board design and is now better than ever. The Black Diamond x Cardiff Co-lab is a durable splitboard that can engage on icy sidehills, make surfy, high-speed turns, and take you up and down big, intimidating lines the world over. Original artwork by Kyson Dana, portraying the fearless mountain denizen who inspired this board.
• Procarbon layup uses a blend of uni-directional and triaxial 100% carbon fiber above and below the core for super light, responsive performance
• Patent-pending halfcamber™️ design (with camber underfoot on 60% of the deck)
• Radical sidecut™️ puts more edge on snow while touring and descending, while still maintaining premium flotation on deep lines
• Boarderpatrol™️ technology uses poplar stringer which fuses with the uniwall seamless urethane sidewall to reinforce the edge and provide an incredibly damp ride
• Endurocap™️ scratch-resistant dimpled topsheet for maximum performance and protection
• Black graphite-infused sintered racebase™️ for maximized glide and easy repair
• Swaletail™️ recurved tails accommodate a variety of skin tail-clips, even those designed for skis
• Biloba™️ chamfered inner edges of the split ski at both the tip and tail allow for hood free touring and damage free connection

After spending months of research , I finally came to the conclusion that this would be the board for me. Big mountain,ibig lines as promised but the “pop” on demand takes the cake. I guess collaborations keeps manufacturers honest. Or….just take the name GOAT seriously.
