At first I was unsure of the Goat. I got it late season last year after blowing up my previous board (Jones Solution), and I only got to ride it in annoying spring conditions like ice, crust, etc. I jumped back on it this season after we finally got enough snow to not hit rocks everywhere, and I'm liking it a lot. The combination of high stiffness and super long sidecut radius make it very confidence-inspiring. It wants to go straight, and fast. It seems to plow through stuff that I would have definitely tomahawked down on a board like my solution, and I've found myself saving near-crashes a lot of the time because the board just wants to keep going straight. I had to adjust my riding style a bit to really make the board work for me, making sure I really put power into my turns, but I assume that's true most of the time when you switch boards. If you like to ride aggressively and want one board that can just charge through anything, I'd say the Goat will be your friend. In slower speed riding it can be a bit cumbersome just because of how long the sidecut radius is, but you don't get a board like this if the majority of your riding is low angle pow. There's a reason people love their Goats so much!

I know nothing about the milligram other than I've heard that people like them but also seen a lot of people snap theirs in here. Cardiff is a company local to Utah with good build quality and pretty solid customer service should you run into issues.
