Getting Started: Setting Up Your ShredShox

Getting Started

Welcome to Full Suspension Skiing

Your ShredShox-equipped skis feature four adjustable shocks that deliver unprecedented tunability and performance on the mountain. This guide will get your air pressure and rebound dialed for your first run.

Step 1 · Get Your Tools Ready

You'll need a shock pump - commonly known as a mountain bike shock pump - to adjust the air pressure in your ShredShox. One is provided in the box.

Step 2 · Set Your Air Pressure (Baseline)

We've created a baseline pressure scale tailored to your weight. Use it as a starting point, then fine-tune to your riding preferences:

  • For harder charging and aggressive carving: increase the pressure slightly.
  • For a smoother, more forgiving ride: let out a bit of pressure.

Step 3 · Set Your Rebound

Rebound controls how quickly the shocks return after compressing. Match it to your day:

  • Carving hard or skiing fast: lean toward faster rebound settings.
  • Bumps and rough conditions: slower rebound provides better control and comfort.

Step 4 · Test and Fine-Tune

  • Start with the recommended air pressure based on your weight and preferences.
  • Take a few runs on familiar terrain.
  • Adjust pressure and rebound as needed to match your riding style and comfort level.

A small change makes a real difference, so adjust in small increments and give each setting a run or two before changing again. Once you find your numbers, jot them down - that's your baseline to return to.

Have your bindings set and checked by a certified technician before your first day, and always ski within your ability.

Dial it in, then go tame the terrain.
