GOODE Skis is proud to announce a new addition to its lineup and a step forward for trick skiing with the release of the MK1, the most technically advanced trick ski ever built.
"I'm in total awe with how technically difficult and amazing to watch trick skiing is," says Dave Goode, president and founder of GOODE Skis. "Much like the slalom market in the early 90s though, I see a lot of room for progress in the design and construction of trick skis so I'm very excited to see our construction technology take tricking to a higher level."
The MK1's design and construction process were heavily influenced by world Mens Tricks No. 1 Martin Kolman, who won the Moomba Masters title earlier this spring on the ski.
"For me, the MK1 provides a level of confidence that the ski won't change over time, it won't break down and I won't ever have to worry about breaking it the day before a tournament again," says Martin. "I've skied the same ski all year, got a big win on it at Moomba, and it feels the same as when I first got on it back in February."
Technical Features
The defining characteristic of the MK1 is its first ever pure carbon core in a trick ski. Other brands use only foam or aluminum honeycomb cores. Carbon has over a 6X strength to weight ratio when compared to aluminum. This innovative construction technique has created a ski that is lighter, more responsive and more durable than current trick skis.
"Skiers will definitely notice more 'pop' off the wake with the MK1, and then be surprised by the nice soft landing it gives," says Martin. "And anyone who does a lot of flips knows how brittle trick skis can be. That's not going to be an issue with this ski."
Additional advanced features: SpinZone and a unique, step-down pre-edge
Martin Kolman won the Men's Tricks title at the Moomba Masters earlier this spring on the MK1. Unlike other trick skis, the MK1's bottom grooves do not extend the length of the ski but instead are only on the ski tips. This "SpinZone" creates a flatter mid-ski section that leads to easier, faster spins and more energy off the wake.
The step-down edge is a quarter-inch pre-edge that runs all the way around the MK1, creating a sort of double edge that allows the skier to build a progressive edge into the wake.
"Let's take a flip, for example, you don't want a full edge right away," says Martin. "With the MK1 it's easy to start an edge but it doesn't just dump you over into a lean lock. It's a more progressive edge that is controllable and precise."
While most high-end trickers use a hard-edge ski for hand passes and a soft-edge ski for toes, Martin says the MK1's unique design features have eliminated the need to have two different skis.
"I used to use a soft-edge ski for toes because soft edges provide a little more stability. But with the step-down around the edge of the ski, we've been able to combine the best characteristics of both a hard and soft-edge into one hard-edge ski. I now use the same ski for toes and hands."
GOODE and Trick Skis
While the MK1 shows GOODE is going all in on trick skiing, it isn't the first time the company has built a trick ski. Regina Jaquess won the 2003 Women's World Overall title on a GOODE trick ski that happened to be the first trick ski ever built by GOODE.
"Since we first had a trick ski in the early 2000s we've learned a lot about new ski construction and design techniques, but trick skis really haven't progressed since then," says Dave, who himself began competing in tricks competitions in recent years. "We've put that knowledge to good use in our slalom skis and now we want to use that expertise to help make tricking easier and more enjoyable."

Introducing the RéVolution, a new ski from GOODE that delivers improved performance through breakthroughs in construction design, new carbon fibers and an advanced resin system. The result is a ski that provides a quicker, more progressive rebound, is more durable and weighs a quarter pound less than any other GOODE to date.
The enhancements drastically improve the consistency and overall performance of a shape whose winning lineage includes a Big Dawg Championship and multiple U.S. National titles, including Open Mens slalom victory.
"This shape is a proven winner, but through a two-year R&D process we've been able to both increase top-end scores as well as user friendliness and predictability," said Dave Goode, founder and president of GOODE Skis.
A new advanced internal construction process features an internal backbone running from the tail of the ski to the top of the tunnel. This feature leads to a more progressive “wind up and wind down” out of the turn and into the first wake.
“The way the ski flexes into and rebounds out of the turn is one of the most important performance aspects in slalom ski design,” said Dave Goode, president and founder of GOODE Skis. “If the ski takes too long to rebound back to shape, you lose cross-course speed. But if it rebounds too quickly and in a jerky-jerky motion, the ski can be very inconsistent. The RéVolution’s flex and rebound is quicker than any other ski we’ve ever made, but it does so in a very smooth way that leads to great performance that you can count on.”
Through a new carbon fiber resin system the engineers at GOODE were able to increase the durability of the ski while reducing weight, thereby increasing cross-course efficiency and decreasing drag - and the extra work associated with it. Additional features of the RéVolution include a water proof core and a refined and more forgiving flex/torsion ratio.
What top skiers are saying about the RéVolution:
“Stable, predictable and fast across course. This ski is effortless.” - Chad Scott
“It gets you wide like a big ski and takes angle like a small ski.
This is the best ski GOODE has ever built.” - Chet Raley
“The RéVolution requires 20 percent less effort cross course than any of my previous skis, getting me to the buoy earlier and easier.” - Dave Miller
“This ski has amazingly fast, yet controllable speed. The backside turns are unbelievable and the cross-course direction is outstanding.” - Greg Badal

Introducing the All-New GOODE XTR™
GOODE Skis is proud to announce the XTR, an all-new ski that combines the world record-breaking DNA of the Nano 1XT with a trailblazing new rocker profile to create the highest performing ski in the GOODE lineup – and an instant classic.
The XTR is a flatter, faster ski, but its most innovative feature is the Continuous Rocker that begins farther back and continues toward the tail more aggressively than previous GOODEs.
The new Continuous Rocker elongates the ski’s sweet spot and provides the advantages of a flatter ski – namely cross-course speed and stability – while cranking out stable, eminently repeatable turns.
New Larger Ski Sizing Leads to More Stability
Months of testing during the off-season discovered an additional benefit of the new rocker: most XTR skiers can now move to a larger ski than they rode with the Nano 1XT.
Performance Right Out of the Box
Company founder and president Dave Goode says that the larger ski combined with the turning characteristics offered by the new rocker creates one of the most user-friendly, get-after-it-GOODEs to date.
Additional Features
The Continuous Rocker has eliminated the need for left- or right-foot forward skis.
Comes standard with the industry-only nano carbon fiber
Factory installed brass inserts
Precision finbox.
Five-year warranty.
2-week demo period
Handmade in Ogden, Utah, U.S.A

“I REALLY WANT TO BE A BETTER SKIER BUT"
I hear this phrase over and over and over again. I hear it in the States. I hear it in Europe. I hear it everywhere. And the “BUT” can have many different reasons like;
I don’t want to adjust my ski/fin/wing to the water/conditions.
I can only ski one day a week.
The ski isn’t that important is it?
I can’t afford a better ski.
I don’t have the time to get additional exercise.
A few extra pounds won’t hurt that much.
And on and on it goes. And to each EXCUSE I say this, “You get out of it what you put into it”! Does Michael Schumacher test his racecar at each track? Of course he does! Does each track drive the same? Of course not! There are differences in air temperature, atmospheric pressure, humidity, type of pavement, track temperature and so on. For Michael to show up at each track on the day of the competition and drive his car which is setup to a “standard” setting would erase his name from any future wins. It’s testing, time and preparation that propel you to the top. To think otherwise is just plain _______ (you fill in the missing word)! The skiers at the top are the ones who have taken the time, eliminated the excuses and prepared themselves and their equipment for the forthcoming tasks at hand and have earned the right to stand the “TALLEST ON THE PODIUM”!

ELBOW PROBLEMS?
If you are suffering from elbow problems, you need the Anti Roll Handle! What is an Anti Roll Handle? Instead of the rope entering the center of the handle allowing the handle to twist, a rope goes around each side of the handle which creates stability and prevents the twisting motion that causes elbow problems. I used to have elbow problems but have long forgotten about them due to this handle. Available in most diameters and lengths. We have found the larger diameter handles help prevent/cure elbow problems. Available in your choice of colors. Buy one today and make the pain go away! $129.99 with FREE SHIPPING!

INTRODUCING MY NEWEST TOWROPE!
I've been riding this ski for about 2 weeks now. Yesterday, out of curiosity, I put together my trusty old 9800 which I was riding prior to trying the Rev 6. It took just 8 buoys to get back in the boat and set up the Rev 6 again. The difference was insane! I highly recommend you try this ski! Order below with FREE SHIPPING in the USA!
Introducing the 2017 editions of the Nano 1™ and Nano 1XT™, newly enhanced versions of one of the most popular and award-winning GOODE shapes of all time.
Available with either the traditional rocker (Nano 1), or asymmetrical rocker (Nano 1 XT), both skis feature the world-record breaking performance the Nano 1 series is known for, along with new graphics and an enhanced sidewall design that enlarges the sweet spot under the skier’s feet and improves tip-to-tail balance.
Nano 1 and Nano 1XT: What’s the Difference?
Both skis employ the same shape, construction material, exacting manufacturing process, and new sidewall design, but there is one key difference between them: the rocker profile.
The Nano 1 has a traditional rocker, meaning the ski’s rise from flat part of the ski to the tip begins at the same spot on both the on- and off-sides of the ski. The Nano 1 has a higher rocker quotient than the Nano 1XT, which many skiers find turns slightly better.
The Nano 1XT features the groundbreaking AsymRocker™, an asymmetrical rocker that begins at different points of the ski; earlier on the off-side, later on the on-side. Many skiers like the earlier rocker rise on their off-side because it allows the ski to finish the turn a bit better before engaging the fore body of the ski. The AsymRocker also allows the Nano 1XT to be slightly flatter than the Nano 1, which increases side-to-side speed, without sacrificing turning capabilities.
Features Found on Both the Nano 1 and Nano 1XT:
Genius Bevels™
The bevels on the Nano 1 and Nano 1 XT feature a sharper bottom edge, which allows the ski to track better up course, while drastically reducing down-course slipping that makes skiers late and narrow. You’ll experience an easy, comfortable, yet extremely stable and solid connection to the water that gives you more confidence and quicker edge-to-edge performance throughout the turn and as you build angle across the wake.
One Shape™
The shape of the Nano 1 and Nano 1XT – narrower than the mid and wider than traditional – fits into a category of its own. Skiers of all types will immediately feel the One Shape’s phenomenal turning performance, tighter radius, and bigger sweet spot. Designed to keep the ski moving through the turn, this shape is ridiculously easy and forgiving to ski while at the same time solid and smooth.
Nano Carbon Construction – Lighter, Stronger, Better Performance
It was an industry first when we introduced our innovative nano carbon fiber construction. It is proven to enhance performance. GOODE skis constructed from nano carbon fiber and resin have higher strength-to-weight ratios and are lighter and stronger than skis built from traditional carbon fiber. Nano carbon raises the performance bar to a higher level.
Technology and Engineering That Makes A Difference
No one is more passionate about pushing the envelope of technology than GOODE. We’re committed to designing, engineering and building advanced technology that will truly exceed your expectations and take your skiing to the next level.
Additional Features
Nano 1 XT™ Asymmetric Rocker design – available in right or left foot forward models. Nano 1™ Traditional Rocker design – available in right or left foot forward models. Both the Nano 1 and Nano 1XT come factory installed with brass inserts that are a fraction of the weight of those used by other manufacturers. Precision finbox.
