Moomba is the value-tier wake brand under Skier's Choice, the same parent that owns Supra. Founded in 1992 in Tennessee, the brand has been Skier's Choice-owned throughout. Production shares the Maryville, Tennessee facility with Supra.

The brand argument is value pricing for surf-wave wake-boat use. Moomba hulls run 20 to 30 percent below Supra equivalents while sharing parts and dealer pipeline. Cross-shop is direct against Axis (Malibu's value tier) and Heyday (MasterCraft's value tier).
