I’m 45 years old and wanted to treat myself to a set of skis made by a true craftsman. I was on a ski trip with friends in Salt Lake and Cardiff just fell on my lap. I strolled into the showroom and Justin answered all of my questions more than thoroughly and I bought a pair of enduros right on the spot. My buddies were a little jealous that night and way more jealous when I took them out the next day!
All smiles,

I’ve got the 186cm Goats with Dynafit St Rotations and these are beasts. I’ve got two different touring boots and the ski is definitely a realistic all-mountain rig. When I want to throw my heavy boots on I can do virtually anything on these and when I want to be faster for the uphill they are still light enough for my Dynaifit Radical pros to pull them up and drive em down. I wouldn’t say these are a single quiver ski for me but that is mainly because I am 6’5 and 280lbs so 186 with rockers is a tad short for me but I wouldn’t fault the ski for that. I think if you fall into my height/weight class this is a great ski for almost all variable conditions and then having something a little longer and wider for super deep days is a great combo. That being said if Cardiff were to make these or the Powgodas in a 190 I would be all over them.

Floaty on the downhill, surfy in heavy pow and float great in light pow. Reliable carver on crust, steeps, and hardpack. Light and stable on the uphill. Couldn't ask for anything more

When you open these skis up, they hold incredibly well and are insanely stable at high speed. Yet, they have been a great ski for playful days at Snowbird, popping in/out out of every zone with ease and fun! They’re responsive and playful enough to feel light on your feet and bouncy through the crud and nimble through the trees but when you want to lay some trenches or keep compose through any runout they really hold well!

I’m 5’7” (150lbs) and I’m mounted on Shift 10’s so I had a second touring set up. The package is super light overall, giving me the best of both worlds.

Stoked Cardiff is making skis and if you’re on the fence - don’t hesitate to give these skis a demo.

NAILED IT! Loving this new ski from Cardiff. My new everyday ski for the Wasatch Range. Mounted with a pair of ATK bindings and the setup is super light. The rocker profile is perfect for all types of snow conditions from pow to variable chop. So stoked Cardiff launched skis this year!
