What makes it different?

Traditional dampeners muffle the ping. Ours absorb the harmful vibrations causing tennis elbow. Your racquet generates vibrations across multiple frequencies when you strike the ball. Standard silicone absorbs only 40% mainly high-frequency sound waves. Sorbothane® absorbs 94.7% low-frequency shock waves (20-100 Hz) that damage your joints.

NASA-grade shock absorption

Sorbothane® technology

Engineered with Sorbothane®, the same material NASA uses to isolate equipment from shock. Proven to absorb vibrations to prevent the micro-trauma that builds into chronic pain.

Two frequencies, two kinds of pain

Through on-court testing of hundreds of materials, a clear pattern emerged.
The pitch of the impact sound was directly linked to a specific type of physical strain.

Our Solution

Tuning out pain, not to eliminate vibration

We engineered ShorkSorb® to tune to a ideal middle-frequency zone, filtering both harmful high and low vibrations while preserving the good vibrations that give players feel, control, and audible feedback.

Choosing the right dampener

A tuned system for feel and relief

Based on our research into frequency, we developed two distinct versions of ShockSorb®. They are are engineered for different sensations, conditions, and player needs.
