Sporty. Sustainable. Impressive.
A manufactory that has risen to world-class status from a valley in Oberlausitz knows what young talents need on this journey: not applause, but support. That is why MOOSMOOS supports athletes and clubs — from the region, out of conviction, and beyond individual seasons.

Three reasons why a moss manufactory supports sport
Because we’re from here
The manufactory is in Oppach, the sports hall in Cunewalde, and the ski jump in Sohland — all in the same valley. Those who manufacture here support the local area: for us, this isn’t a marketing decision, but a matter of community.
Because we went to the same school
Years of discipline until a single movement is perfected. Precision in the details, even when no one is watching. The determination to achieve world-class standards from a small town — craftsmanship and competitive sport are closer than you might think.
Because talent needs support
Between youth training and the World Cup lie years when nobody is watching. That is exactly where we step in — providing reliable, long-term support without expecting a podium finish every season.
And what does that have to do with moss? To be honest: less than an advertising agency would claim. No moss picture will make a jump any longer or a run any faster. But recovery is part of every training plan — and a little piece of tranquil nature in your retreat is the best gift we can give ourselves.
Anne Häckel
Ski jumping
Ski jumping begins where most people would stop: at the top of the take-off ramp, alone with the decision to let yourself fall. Anne Häckel is the youngest member of our sports team — an athlete who summons this courage anew week after week. We’re following her on her long journey through the junior squad: with equipment, support and the certainty that someone believes in her, even if she doesn’t land a jump perfectly for once.
Arne Hohlfeld
Ski jumping · Sohland Ski Club
MOOSMOOS has been associated with the Sohland Ski Club for over 20 years — Arne has literally grown up as part of this partnership: his parents have been coaching the club’s young athletes for around 30 years, and he himself first stood on the ski jump as a child. This summer presented him with a question that no amount of training could answer: in July, the IOC removed Nordic combined from the Olympic programme for 2030 — after more than a hundred years. Arne sought the answer on the ski jump: 7th and 8th place at the German Cup in Oberhof, his first appearance in the men’s category, then 99.5 metres and the lead after the jumping event in Liberec, before illness forced him to withdraw from the races. At the German Championships in Hinterzarten, he finished fourth in the junior special jump event — using the same inrun as the World Cup jumpers. This was followed by an invitation to compete with the ski jumpers in Predazzo a week later: 19th and 24th out of a field of 70, the fourth-best German on both days. After much deliberation with his parents and coach, he is now switching to special ski jumping, with the Junior World Championships as his goal. He recently demonstrated that he has the right foundation at the Spreequellcross on the Kottmar, a round of the Saxony Cup: 9 kilometres in 40:07 minutes, first place in the juniors’ category — a time that would have been enough for third place in the men’s race. For us, Arne is not just a brand ambassador, but living proof of what can be achieved through perseverance.
Elisabeth Kappaurer
Alpine Skiing · ÖSV
2014 Junior World Champion, 2023 European Championship silver medallist in giant slalom, World Cup skier for the Austrian Ski Federation — and a comeback from injury that says more about her character than any victory. Elisabeth has been part of the MOOSMOOS family since November 2023; she retired from competitive skiing in 2025. Our partnership does not end there: anyone who has lived by the motto ‘Dare to make the impossible happen’ remains part of this family — both on the slopes and beyond.
Roberts Naudins
Ice hockey · U17 TOP League, HCT Young Lions
Born in 2008, raised in the far north of Europe, now playing in the Swiss U17 TOP League: Roberts is at the start of a journey whose outcome no one knows — and that is precisely why we are supporting him now. The partnership grew out of a long-standing business relationship and a friendship that has developed over the years in Switzerland; it will accompany a young player through the years in which talent matures into character.
HVO Oberlausitz, Cunewalde
Handball · Youth development in the region
Just a few kilometres from the manufactory, HVO Oberlausitz Cunewalde coaches children and young people from the valley — instilling values of fairness, team spirit and respect. Clubs like these are the lifeblood of the local community, long before anyone talks of success. That is why our commitment here is the most natural of all: it is not about a name, but about the community from which we ourselves come.
