Shock Absorber

The Völkl Shock Absorber is made of a special high-density hardwood that absorbs the forces that occur during a landing and it also protects the woodcore from tiny cracks.

HORROR-SHOCK ABSORBER

The permanently revised HSA is made of two glued hardwood inlays made of armor wood that are milled into the core, in the binding area, towards the nose and tail. The H-shaped inlays absorb all shocks and impacts of hard landings and huge jumps. The Horror-Shock Absorber now withstands the weight of a compact car. Respectively, surviving hard landings after huge jumps make Squad boards extremely strong and durable and equip them with ultimate pop.

TRADITIONAL SHOCK ABSORBER

This consists of one single hard wood layer. It is not milled into the core but inserted where the core tapers down. Together with a V-Flex inlay the Shock Absorber makes the board stronger with better torsion properties.
