Product Info
Because backcountry isn't always blower pow, you need a ski that has seen it all and remains composed. The Moment Underworld Skis come from, well... you guessed it, the underworld. Things get weird down there, and the Moment Underworld can keep its cool in everything but the deepest and softest of the white white. 106 mm underfoot meets Dirty Moustache Rocker meets lightweight core all sum up to make the Underworld lightweight and insanely versatile; gripping boilerplate ice, slaying corn, skin tracks, that's all fine. We're glad Moment took a trip to the underworld to unlock the secrets for the ultimate touring ski!
Product Details
Rocker Type
Dirty Moustache Rocker – Rocker at the tip and tail, low center camber, and two sections of micro-camber embedded in front of and behind the binding. Rocker and low camber let the ski surf and slash in powder, while the micro-camber sections create focused edge pressure for carving hardpack.
Flex
7 / 10 – Medium-stiff flex for a wide range of snow conditions.
Core
Paulownia / Pine – Paulownia is exceptionally light in weight, with similar properties to aspen in terms of flex and rebound. Moment uses Paulownia as the core foundation for touring models, and add pine stringers for strength and a smooth ride.
Lowfat Layup – Uses 33% more carbon and lighter fiberglass to shave weight from the ski while still preserving snap and durability.
Laminates
VDS (Vibration Dampening Strip)
Fiberglass Matrix – In addition to carbon fiber, Moment uses three types of fiberglass laminates to fine-tune each ski's flex pattern. Triaxial glass adds twisting strength and longitudinal stiffness. Biaxial weaves add torsional stiffness. Unidirectional glass helps absorb vibration and stiffen the ski from tip to tail.
Carbon Fiber Stringers – Moment uses carbon fiber in all of its skis, either in the form of woven uni-directional stringers or carbon tow threads added to the laminate matrix. Lighter than fiberglass, metal, or basalt, carbon helps tune and strengthen the ski while adding longevity to the flex profile.
Reinforced Binding Mount Layer
Nylon Topsheet
Sidewalls
Extruded UHMW (Polyethylene) – Extremely light, durable, and resistant to separation.
Base
1.2 mm Durasurf 4001 Sintered Base – This U.S. made base material takes a beating while staying fast. It is harder and has better wax-absorption properties than extruded bases, making it the industry standard for performance and longevity.
Edges
2.2 mm Rockwell 48 Steel Edges – Heat-treated both at the source and in-house at Moment, these edges are extremely hard and ductile, ensuring you get the most life out of your skis.

Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Terrain:
All-Mountain, Powder, Alpine Touring

Terrain
All-Mountain All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm. Powder These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow. Alpine Touring Also known as backcountry skis, alpine touring (AT) skis are designed for going uphill as well as downhill. These skis are typically light for their width and many feature fittings that accept climbing skins. AT skis vary in width and weight, with the wider heavier versions usually used for winter/deep snow touring and the skinnier, lighter skis usually used for spring/summer/long distance touring.

Ability Level:

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

Turning Radius
Long > 22 m radius is best for powder and big-mountain.

Tail Type:
Full Twin Tip
More
Tail Type
Full Twin Tip Desinged to allow you to ski backwards, full twin tips are found primarily on park & pipe skis and freestyle powder skis. More and more, we are seeing twin tips on all-mountain skis of all abilities, as it makes it a little easier to get around, and for the most part does not inhibit forward skiing.
