Hoji
4FRNT
$809.00
Legendary freerider Eric Hjorleifson (Hoji) collaborated closely with 4FRNT engineers to craft a shred stick with a seamless blend of stability, playfulness and lightweight performance. Unlike many skis in its class, the Hoji sets itself apart with a fairly straight sidecut, along with noticeably tapered and significantly rockered tips and tails and a flat section underfoot. This combination enhances predictability and versatility on edge while providing excellent float and playfulness in deep snow. As a soft snow specialist, the Hoji inspires you to get out early for fresh tracks and keep it going until the late-day chop is pounded into submission.
Despite its atypical design, the Hoji is surprisingly predictable on groomers, with its sidecut radius feeling shorter than expected and facilitating comfortable carving on firm snow. While it may not excel at aggressive carving, it works just fine when linking sections of off-piste terrain. The ski is crafted from aspen and maple wood, and with pre-stretched carbon fibers seamlessly integrated into the core, it’s brimming with energy and pop. In addition to a smooth, damp ride, the pure woods also provide excellent durability and binding retention. Topping off the ski’s construction is 4FRNT’s signature Multi-Radius Rocker which keeps the ski flat underfoot with two different rocker radii smoothly blending towards the tip in tail—keeping you on the ground if and when you want to be. 4FRNT went further by incorporating a neoprene insert in the ski’s tip, drastically reducing chatter, enhancing overall damping, and eliminating pesky tip delamination issues. Say goodbye to frustrating vibrations and hello to a smooth, stable ride that’ll have you charging with confidence.
Thanks to its lightweight qualities, the Hoji works great for human-powered missions and the 4-Lock version includes a small cutout near the tail that retains skins—another perfectly designed touch by Hoji himself. With the 4FRNT Hoji, you’re not just getting a ski, you’re getting a masterpiece of engineering and innovation that’s designed to elevate your powder experiences. Click in, embrace the unique design, and let the Hoji take you on one helluva ride.
