New Goode? Carbon fiber core?

Jordan · August 6

I got an email about the new Goode. Anyone know anything about it?

Performance vs. Concierge?

bhs · August 6

Concierge=$2890

packski · August 6

I am at a loss for words on the price! Might have to switch to barefooting!

Brewski · August 6

My feet ski absolutely perfect and saves me a ton of $$~~!

Andre · August 6

2890$ ?
Must need a jet engine rebuilt...

gjohnson · August 6

The cheaper version is only $2490

Nando · August 6

“Concierge”- love it. At that price Dave should analyze a video of your skiing and customize the flex based on that.

Mary at Goode told me demo program is not available on either model.

ballsohard · August 6

"Best ski ever" "More expensive" that's all you need to know with a Goode ski release.

bhs · August 6

No demo program? Wow

The_MS · August 6

Best ski ever. Quicker off the ball then previous models and the sweet spot had been expanded by perfect rocker position

Andre · August 6

#Gamechanger...

ballsohard · August 6

Is @MS gonna give the new Goode a go?

mbabiash · August 6

@MS. I sense sarcasm.
I really want to see Bob Marley do a bit on ski manufacturing.
It’s so crazy. They go wide now back to narrow.
Smaller bevels and back to buggier bevels.
More rocker. Oh wait. We need a bigger flat spot and less rocker.
It’s out of control. I know all these things work together but we really have come full circle on shape at least.
No doubt materials have come a long way but come on man.

Just don’t break it, My experience is that Goode service won’t respond if it’s just a little outside the warranty. Not a goode experience.

skibug · August 6

I guess I will finally have to find something else and sacrifice a few buoys.

UCFskier · August 6

I have just heard of so many of these breaking and ppl getting hurt.... would like to try one but naw.... have to pass

lakeaustinskier · August 6

For years I resisted buying a Goode out of sheer principle. Too much money, to fragile whatever. All I know is I've dock started a lot of 38 + skiers (twice at nationals) and Goode is extremely well represented. I have an 6 year old XT that I've been trying to replace forever and so far nothing has stuck. Well........I did get that email from Denali last week asking for a final payment

Than_Bogan · August 6

It's always fun to make fun of the industry leader, and especially now that I am a Denali disciple. But we also shouldn't forget that Goode has made some of the best performing skis available for decades. I tip my hat to them, even as I cross my fingers for the c-75 to leave all other skis in the dust

.

One reason they've been so successful is that they constantly play with materials. This carbon core could be anything from a gimmick to the soon-to-be industry standard. But we'd never find out without somebody trying it -- and increasing the price to make it possible.

And finally, almost everyone reading this would spend $3000 in a heartbeat if you knew you'd get +2 buoys. Might as well stop pretending you wouldn't. (I am most definitely NOT saying you'll get +2 buoys with that ski. I know nothing about it at all. Merely making a point about our collective price insensitivity.)

bhs · August 6

I have skied on a Goode since the 9400. Never had one break and I have always had good customer service. But I can't bring myself to pay $2890 or even $2400.

packski · August 6

I wouldn't spend that unless I ran at least two whole passes better. But that's just my two cents/sense/dollars.

ISP6ball · August 6

Looks like they're trying to keep up with Nautique.. ..

skierjp · August 6

Years ago Chet skied a Warp that cost 3k when everyone else was at 1k or less

wawaskr · August 6

Does anyone actually know why all of the current XTRs, Revolution, and now this Revocc use the fin blocks that have the cutoff forward edge? Is Goode just using up excess inventory from Rev 6 production when the forward edge of the fin block was cut to accommodate the “spine” on the tail of the ski?

Golson · August 6

I’ve heard it’s hollow like the Warp. Stringers that run north-south. Filled in with the magic GOODE gel core...and it’ll sell out just like the 2019 Ski Nautique did.

thager · August 6

Sounds "Optimized" to me!

swc5150 · August 6

I paid a grand or more for my 9100 back in the 90's. I guess this ski is just keeping up with inflation. However the competition now IMHO is way better than it was back then, making it much harder to shell out the cash (for me).

Dairy farmers also support their cows while they milk them. Of course Goode suupports the sport but lets not get confused about the why, its good business. We want better equipment and that comes at a price, plenty of people will pay and not think twice.
