Limited Edition Shock Seat Tower

Limited Edition Shock Tower
SKU: 20-0500

Like the standard Shock Tower, the Limited Edition Shock Tower is constructed with aircraft quality 6061 plate aluminum, and provides a softer landing for those who are pushing the limits of big air. This is where the comparison ends however, as the Limited Edition has many other features at work. First, the Tower components themselves have been “pocketed”, a process that involves removing much of the weight of the components without sacrificing the strength. It also works by incorporating the use of the Comptech shock under the seat surface, allowing it to compress under load. With the Comptech Shock, the air pressure in the shock can be adjusted to provide more or less compression, as well as the rebound can be quickened or slowed, to further tailor the ride to each individual rider.

 

Note: The Sky Ski LE Shock Tower can also be used as a replacement tower for the Air Chair, with some slight modifications. Please call for more details.

Features

The LE Shock Tower comes with a durable “hard anodized” finish that won’t chip or peel, seat belt swivels, Sky Ski double locking seatbelt, 2” thick seatpad with Traxx, and ratcheting handles. What’s the right amount of pressure for me? The amount of air pressure for each rider is determined by his or her weight, speed and skill. These are the three factors that need to be accounted for while determining what air pressure you should use. A good basic formula is to add the three together, (determine your skill by # of feet out of he water you regularly jump the foil) that number should be your starting point for your shock pressure. (For Risse shocks add 25 lbs pressure to that number) Please note the zip-tie on the lower shaft of the shock. This is to be used as a reference as to the maximum amount of compression the Shock Tower was subjected to in your previous ride. If this zip tie is closer than ½ inch from the bottom of the shock you are in need of more air pressure, as the shock is close to bottoming out on max compression. Bottoming out the shock will significantly reduce the life of the shock. (Blown Shocks are NOT covered under warranty)
