After months of research into a solid all around board to replace my ‘01 Burton Rush 164 I settled on the GOAT 166 and I couldn’t be more satisfied with my decision. It surfed through powder, dug trenches into the groomers and navigated the trees exceptionally! May pull the trigger on a pro carbon or possibly lynx or crane next. Great board CARDIFF! Keep up the good work.
This is by far the best all around, one board to rule them all board, I've ever had and ridden. There is nothing it can't do. Pow, it floats, rip groomers and dig trenches, no problem, ride switch, hell yes, boost some side hits, yup it's got you covered. If I could only have one deck, this would be it, with a split version as well 😉. It's stiff without being a dead plank under your feet and the weight is just perfect, it's not heavy, but not so light that you get bucked around in chunder. I ride this 95% of my days at Brighton even on 15"+ days. I just cannot say enough good things about it with 39 years of riding under my belt.
I own 72 snowboards. On my first run on the GOAT I knew that all of the other 71 boards would be on eBay soon and the proceeds from that 71 would fund all my Cardiff purchases for the near future. True Story.
Been snowboarding for over 25+ years. I’m so impressed with this board that I can’t wait to push it to its limits. Looking forward to being a Cardiff riding for life!
Board feels good, sidecut is a little mellow and the boards a little soft for my liking but all in all it’s a good board. Handles well and feels solod under the foot
