ShredLORD (Load Oscillation Reduction Device)
ShredLORD (Load Oscillation Reduction Device)

Inspired by mountain bikes, engineered for snowboards, and designed for control in hard and icy snow conditions, ShredLORD (Load Oscillation Reduction Device) is the world’s first snowboarding suspension system/shock absorber.

ShredLORD was launched on Kickstarter where 191 backers pledged $28,984 to help bring the project to life. The idea is to introduce rotational motion (tilting) into the way your existing snowboard binding function, instead of just squeezing downward the ShredLoRD tilts and counterbalances the edge pressure. The promised result is constant edge contact, more confidence, and higher speed.

  • ShredLORD dampens board chatter by absorbing impacts over 5g – so you stay smooth, even when the mountain throws punches.
  • ShredLORD locks in edge contact within 0.4 seconds, helping you maintain edge contact in variable conditions.
  • ShredLORD boosts stability and increases speed so you’re always charging ahead of your crew.

Here’s the pitch on the logic of ShredLORD’s suspension:

We acknowledge that your legs aren’t doing the same job in snowboarding – they’re a high-performance duo with distinct roles. That’s why ShredLORD treats them differently.

Your front leg sets the edge. Precision and fast response are key. This is why your front leg stays almost straight – ready to transmit force instantly to the slope with minimal impact absorption.

Your back leg keeps the edge. Strength and flexibility are key. This is why your back leg bends more – ready to absorb impacts and counter the reactive forces from the slope.

In short, your front leg is more active, while the back leg is more reactive.

This is why we provide ShredLORD as a shock absorption adapter that you mount only on your back leg to preserve your front leg’s finesse while offloading your back leg. 

The result? A stable stance throughout your ride, less bumps on your back leg and more control over your edge. 

ShredLORD is designed to help you ride with more confidence, control, and stamina.
