The black tendon is built for durability and better UV resistance. Based on decades of safety testing, we recommend regularly inspecting tendon flex, connection points, and screws. Note that humid conditions, warm climates, and usage intensity can all influence and shorten tendon lifespan. The tendon flexes from the middle due to its unique shape rather than all the force being applied to the area where the connection bolts are. This means it’s easier to see if the tendon is starting to wear or degrade.
Description
Slim Base
Pro.
One size fits all. Used by all the Goya Professional team.
Welcome to our new base. At our core, we follow a simple rule: include only what’s truly needed—nothing more. Every component begins with a question: Is it essential? From there, we push further. How can it be lighter? Stronger? More efficient? How can it deliver more function while occupying less space? This is the discipline that shapes everything we build. This new base had to pass every test. For over a year, our entire team pushed it to the limit-sailing in all conditions, including sessions with a broken tendon—to ensure not just superior strength, but uncompromising safety. Because when it comes to the critical connection between the board and the rig, there is no room for compromise.
Tendon.
Internal Safety Rope.
The new tendon includes an internal double-loop Dyneema rope. If the tendon fails, the board and rig stay connected so you can sail back to shore.
Construction.
Fewer Pieces. Cleaner Design. A simpler construction with fewer parts cuts weight and failure points. Everything is slim and aligned so the base stays out of the way and works the same from every angle.
All metals made from 316 Stainless Steel. Plastic base plate made from Nylon. Tendon made from black TPU. Absorber Disc made from Nylon with pressed EVA grip surface. Safety Rope made from Dyneema, double loop with triple knots.
