S5-LW Suspension Base - Black
The Shockwave S5-LW lightweight marine suspension base is our entry-level recreational suspension option. Designed to mitigate the shock of wave impact in light conditions on freshwater lakes or cabin boats on the ocean.
Made from anodized A360 cast aluminum that has been powder-coated and fitted with stainless steel hardware, the S5-LW suspension base utilizes a three-link forward action suspension design.
Fitted with an X-Fusion O2 PRO R air-sprung shock with adjustable rebound, suspension travel is 4-inch vertical and 1.5-inch forward, mitigating deceleration associated with wave impact. A shock pump with a pressure gauge is included with your purchase at no extra cost.
