A true masterpiece. The U4 Half Series is privately crafted in Japan using the finest materials, advanced construction methods, and expert craftsmanship. Its core blends three types of wood, achieving an ideal balance of lightweight comfort, natural flex, and stability. The base features Moss’s proprietary ISO JP Graphite, delivering premium glide across all snow temps and conditions. The reengineered shape seamlessly combines the best qualities of Moss’s flagship U4 and U5 models, which have remained virtually unchanged since their introduction in the 1980s. After five years of extensive field testing, the U4 Half has emerged as the most refined riding experience in our entire lineup—paying homage to the original soul of that era.
The U4 Half Overhead features a stiffer fiberglass compared to the regular U4 Half, enhancing float in deep powder and improving stability at mid to high speeds.
SNOWSURF CAMBER
A refined take on traditional directional camber, Snowsurf Camber positions the camber peak closer to the front foot for immediate, precise response and acceleration, simulating a front-foot surfing experience on the slopes.
