Manufacturers of high performance, water sports equipment depend on Sorbothane® for comfort and reliability.

The Red Heel Pad in the photo insert is made from Sorbothane®. Our material, known for its shock isolation capability, reduces the impact forces on ankles, knees and hips...especially after catching big air. Under load, Sorbothane® "flows" to transmit the force perpendicularly away from the rider. Its elastic behavior causes Sorbothane to return to shape to prepare for the next impact.

In the pounding surf, Sorbothane® works.
