Product Highlight

1

Vibration intensity dampening

Sorbothane absorbs up to 94.7% of impact shock, converting it to heat rather than sending it into your arm. No other dampener comes close.

2

Vibration frequency tuning

Shifts vibration out of harmful frequency bands without muting feel. Two profiles, two distinct experiences.

3

Structural impact dispersal

Four independent arms flex on impact, dispersing vibration more evenly than any rigid single-piece design.

4

Total string bed contact

Full string bed contact on every impact maximizes vibration absorption. More contact, more dampening, every single shot.

Votre coude paie le prix de chaque échange

Lorsqu’une balle entre en contact avec vos cordes, elle envoie une onde de vibration à travers le cadre, directement dans votre prise, votre poignet et votre coude. Au cours d’un seul match, vous absorbez des centaines de ces impacts. La plupart des joueurs ne les ressentent pas sur le moment — mais au fil des semaines et des mois, ces micro-chocs s’accumulent et provoquent des douleurs au coude, des tensions dans l’avant-bras et ce syndrome du « ça vient juste de commencer à faire mal » qui met chaque saison des athlètes de haut niveau sur la touche.

At-Source Vibration Dampening

Engineered material that absorbs string vibration before it reaches the frame's throat. It doesn't just change the sound — it measurably reduces the vibration reaching your hand.

Reduces Arm Fatigue

Repeated vibration builds tension in your forearm over a match. ShockSorb attenuates that signal, keeping your arm loose and relaxed through every set.

Reduces Repetitive Impact Stress

Every strike sends low-level shock through the racket into your arm. ShockSorb reduces that micro-load at the source, so your arm absorbs less impact over a match.

Universal Racket Compatibility

Fits all standard string patterns, from open to dense. Installs in seconds, stays put through the hardest hits, and comes in multiple profiles to match your setup.

What make it different

Graph showing G-force response over time for Butyl Rubber, Neoprene, and Sorbothane 50 Duro materials.

Controlling shock graph

Same hit, very different shock. All four lines start from the same ~23 G impulse. Butyl rubber and neoprene still pass through about 10 G, then keep bouncing for more than 10 ms. Sorbothane peaks at roughly 2 G and settles almost immediately, without the ringing. Less shock and less after-vibration reach your hand on every shot. Source: Sorbothane, Inc. material data.

Impact absorption graph

Each loop shows a material being compressed and released. The area inside the loop is impact energy turned into heat instead of being sent back. Sorbothane's loop is far larger than natural rubber's, so it absorbs more energy on every hit. Natural rubber springs back and returns that energy, which means more rebound and more vibration passed on to your arm. Source: Sorbothane, Inc. material data.
