THE SHREDSHOX BRINGS SUPERIOR DAMPING AND SUSPENSION TO ALPINE SKIING.

The ShredShox is ONLY full suspension ski platform. Taking the principles from motorsports and mountain biking in shock absorption, damping and stability, the ShredShox the next level of performance and comfort for all rider types.

TAME THE TERRAIN.

  • The ShredShox platform, integrating advanced shock absorbers and a suspended carbon platform, brings a new level of performance to alpine skiing. Let’s break down the core functions and benefits of these elements.

    1. Role of Shocks (Damping)

    • Function in Skiing: Shocks are used to manage the energy transfer between the ski and the skier, especially during high-impact situations like jumps, abrupt turns, or navigating through uneven terrain. They absorb kinetic energy that would otherwise be transferred directly to the skier's body, reducing the impact forces on muscles and joints.

    • Scientific Basis: The science behind damping involves converting the kinetic energy generated upon impact into heat or dissipating it over time, which reduces the vibrational energy experienced by the skier. This energy absorption minimizes "recoil" or bouncing, helping to stabilize the ski and maintain consistent contact with the snow.

    • Benefit to Skiers: Effective damping significantly improves control and comfort, especially at higher speeds and on rough surfaces. By absorbing shock, it reduces muscle fatigue and decreases the risk of injury, making for a smoother, more controlled ride.

    2. Suspended Carbon Platform

    • Function in Skiing: The suspended carbon platform serves as a flexible, yet durable foundation that maintains stability while allowing the ski to adapt to varying pressures and angles. This platform is essentially the "chassis" of the ShredShox system, where it distributes the forces from shocks across the ski's surface.

    • Scientific Basis: Carbon is chosen for its high strength-to-weight ratio and responsiveness. It can flex under stress without permanent deformation, making it ideal for absorbing force and then returning to its original shape. This suspension-like mechanism adds an extra layer of shock absorption, which further enhances energy management on each turn or impact.

    • Benefit to Skiers: A suspended platform made of carbon not only lightens the load but also adds a dynamic, responsive feel to the ski. It allows the skier to maintain stability without feeling the full brunt of the terrain beneath them, leading to improved maneuverability and control.

    3. The Combined Effect on Alpine Skiing

    • When the shock absorption and suspended carbon platform work in tandem, they provide a dual system of stability and impact reduction. This synergy means that skiers experience less "chatter" (small, rapid vibrations) on hard-packed or icy snow, which is essential for maintaining edge grip and precision at high speeds. The ShredShox system thereby enhances stability, keeps skis glued to the snow, and significantly reduces physical strain.

    In essence, the ShredShox platorm enhances your skiing by managing energy at every step, turning even the roughest terrain into a controlled, efficient experience. Through this innovative approach, ShredShox enables skiers to push their limits with less fatigue and greater control, ultimately improving both performance and safety on the mountain.

  • The ShredShox platform’s combination of air suspension and customizable damping settings is designed to manage and reduce chatter, allowing skiers to tailor their ride based on personal style and terrain. Chatter—small, rapid vibrations that occur when a ski meets resistance on the snow—can disrupt stability, compromise edge grip, and lead to fatigue. Here’s how ShredShox technology manages chatter similarly to advanced systems in race cars and mountain bikes.

    1. Understanding Chatter and Vibration Control

    • In Skiing: Chatter arises most often on hard, icy, or uneven surfaces, where skis repeatedly bounce or lose contact with the snow, leading to a feeling of instability. Left unchecked, this vibration reduces the ski’s edge grip, making it harder for skiers to maintain a stable carve.

    • In Race Cars and Mountain Bikes: Like skiing, high-speed performance vehicles such as race cars and mountain bikes face vibration and instability, especially on rough tracks or terrain. These applications use advanced suspension and damping to control tire or wheel contact and reduce vibrations, resulting in smoother, more controlled movement.

    2. Role of Air Suspension in ShredShox

    • Function in Managing Chatter: ShredShox’s air suspension provides a cushion of pressurized air that absorbs shocks from terrain irregularities. This not only smooths out impacts but also ensures consistent contact with the snow, reducing the risk of bounce or lift-off.

    • Adjustability: Air suspension allows for customizable settings. Skiers can adjust the air pressure in ShredShox to suit their style and terrain, much like race car drivers or mountain bikers tune their setups to match conditions. A softer setup will absorb more minor bumps, reducing chatter for those who prefer smooth, consistent edge engagement.

    3. Damping Settings and Vibration Control

    • Function in Managing Chatter: Damping controls how much or how little vibration energy is transferred back through the ski. ShredShox’s adjustable damping allows skiers to decide how much energy is absorbed, which is crucial for reducing chatter on harder snow where small, rapid vibrations are common.

    • Dynamic Response: In mountain biking, riders adjust damping to maintain stability on rough trails. Similarly, ShredShox enables skiers to dial down feedback from rough surfaces, keeping skis steady without excessive vibration. This adaptability is essential for high-speed or steep skiing conditions.

    4. How ShredShox Combines These Elements to Reduce Chatter

    • The combination of air suspension and adjustable damping creates a stable, adaptive platform that responds quickly to terrain changes, effectively dampening chatter without compromising control. This balance is similar to how a race car’s well-tuned suspension maintains tire contact or how a mountain bike stays stable on rocky paths.

    • Reducing chatter through the ShredShox platform allows skiers to improve edge control and reduce muscle fatigue, making it possible to carve harder and maintain speed on less forgiving terrain.

    The ShredShox platform’s approach to managing chatter is much like high-performance suspension in vehicles: it keeps control steady, maximizes surface contact, and reduces the impact of vibrations. Skiers can push boundaries with confidence, knowing the platform optimizes performance across varied snow conditions.

  • The ShredShox platform uses premium materials like carbon fiber, aluminum, titanium, and tuneable air shocks for their unmatched strength, weight advantages, and adaptability—qualities that make them indispensable in high-performance fields like military and motorsports.

    1. Carbon Fiber

    • Use in Mountain Biking & Motorsports: Known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and rigidity, carbon fiber is used in aircraft, racing frames, and vehicle components where lightweight durability is critical.

    • ShredShox Advantage: Carbon fiber provides a resilient, lightweight base for the platform, maintaining structural integrity while reducing weight, allowing skiers to maneuver freely without sacrificing strength.

    2. Aluminum

    • Use in Military & Motorsports: Lightweight, rust-resistant, and relatively inexpensive, aluminum is ideal for components needing both flexibility and resilience, like vehicle frames and lightweight armor.

    • ShredShox Advantage: Aluminum’s strength and lightness make it perfect for parts that need to absorb vibrations, contributing to a durable yet agile platform on the mountain.

    3. Titanium

    • Use in Military & Motorsports: Highly resistant to corrosion and fatigue, titanium’s lightweight strength is ideal for armor plating, aerospace parts, and racing components exposed to high stress and impact.

    • ShredShox Advantage: Titanium enhances the platform’s durability without excessive weight, enabling the ShredShox to withstand intense skiing conditions and impacts.

    4. Tuneable Air Shocks

    • Motorsports & Mountain Biking: Air shocks provide customizable suspension, crucial in off-road vehicles and mountain biking needing adaptable impact absorption across varied terrain.

    • ShredShox Advantage: Tuneable air shocks allow skiers to adjust damping based on terrain, reducing chatter and improving control, just as they would on high-performance vehicles.

    These materials make ShredShox a high-performance platform that offers stability, durability, and responsiveness, allowing skiers to push boundaries with confidence.

Designed to reduce physical strain and maximize performance, ShredShox allows you to ski longer, recover faster, and minimize the wear on your muscles and joints. Here’s how our platform helps you stay strong, ski comfortably, and reduce the physical toll of demanding terrain.

    1. Role of Shocks (Damping)

    Reduce Impact on Muscles and Joints: Shocks in the ShredShox platform absorb kinetic energy from each jump, turn, and rough patch of terrain. Instead of passing that energy straight to your body, the shocks deflect and dissipate it, lowering the impact on your knees, hips, and back—areas that are often strained by intense skiing.

    Science Behind Damping: Damping works by converting the energy from impacts into heat and dissipating it gradually. This controlled release minimizes the bouncing and vibration that would otherwise travel up the skis into your body, making your movements smoother and reducing muscle fatigue.

    Benefits for Skiers: Effective damping improves comfort and control, particularly on icy or uneven surfaces. By absorbing the shock, ShredShox reduces wear and tear on your body, making skiing smoother, easier, and less tiring on your muscles and joints over time.

    2. Suspended Carbon Platform

    Enhancing Stability and Flexibility: The suspended carbon platform in ShredShox is designed to be both sturdy and adaptive. It distributes impact forces across a broader surface area, creating a responsive “chassis” for your skis that moves with you and cushions your body against the bumps and jolts of rough terrain.

    Why Carbon?: Carbon fiber offers an unmatched strength-to-weight ratio and has the ability to flex and return to shape without breaking. This flexibility means that the platform absorbs impacts without causing instability, allowing you to navigate turns and changes in terrain more easily.

    Benefit to Skiers: The suspended platform feels light underfoot while providing superior stability. By helping skis adapt to every shift in terrain, it improves control, conserves your energy, and keeps you agile, so you stay skiing in control for longer.

    3. The Combined Power of Suspension and Damping
