Testing under real-life conditions
To understand exactly how our products perform, we put them to the test in some of the toughest conditions on earth. In 2010, SHOCKWAVE president David Smith completed an 8000-mile journey using SHOCKWAVE technology. He took an 11-meter open-hull RHIB outfitted with an ICE Console from St. John’s, Newfoundland, over Canada through the Arctic Circle and the Northwest Passage, around Alaska and back home to Victoria, BC.
in-house testing
COMPUTER DESIGN & STRUCTURAL VERIFICATION
We test all of our products expansively on and off the water, using the latest software, equipment and test boats. Moreover, we use custom built equipment to tune and test our products for the specific needs of the marine environment.
While we test and measure our components and seats in related environments, we also use a number of other in-house analytic and testing methods to ensure absolute safety and ultimate performance.
We perform “Drop Testing” in house to verify component strength and suspension performance
We use SolidWorks Simulation software to analyze millions of variables that may cause stress on the components and parts of all our products
All major components are broken down for validation and tested individually
All of our products are
tested on and off the water
