Shockwave seats

I received, in december, one S2 jockey seat and a jump seat from shockwave, they also supply the console. I did not have the chance to try them yet, winter is so long here in Quebec, but I can told you that the quality is impressive. They are very strong built.
Dr Ullman still the reference for his shock mitigation study and his products are really nice, but I think shockwave must be considered. Mr Sean Gerrett from Shockwave was very helpfull with this.

I've sat on a shockwave jockey seat- non suspension, don't know the model. I think it's their compound use of different foams that made it the best seat I've tried so far

Morin1, how did you find their prices? I get the impression it's all top dollar stuff?

shockwave seats

You may noticed that Shockwave have a new catalogue with more models. I bought mine just after they went from the spring loaded shock to the new Fox float shock. For this reason Mr Gerrett gave me huge saving on demo models equipped with spring shock. List price for the S2 jockey seat was close to 3500.00$ per seat, almost the same for the jump seat. I don’t know the price of the new model.

I hadn't seen the revamped website, looks good

The old one was a bit lacking in information, I'd love to get my hands on an ICE

Looking for a pair of Ullman Seats

I appreciate the kind words from RIBNET users.

I promised an economical seat to RIBNET users over a year ago.

However, we have been real busy with military stuff and new development see . This is a video of our ICE2. We have also been working with Fox and our (secret) upholstery supplier to improve the seats. So little time to develop our recreational market.

In the meantime we will offer an RIBNET member 30% off on any product. We also have a variety of seats that we have used for testing that we can offer at a good price.

Sean is our sales manager and he is available at sean@shockwaveseats.com or 01-250-656-6165 or 01-250-880-0142. I can be reached at david@shockwaveseats.com but will be out of telephone range testing intermitently over the summer.

We have a new catalogue and if you email us we will send one out along with pricing.

We would sure like to hear from you if we can help out.

Kind Regards
David Smith
President - Shockwaveseats

2 Ullman Biscaya Seats for Sale

I have two Ullman Dynamic Biscaya XLT 750 Jockey seats that I purchased a few years ago to put on a 27 foot RIB I was planning on building, however due to a divorce I never built the boat. Now I have two new seats I am looking to sell.

They are definitely expensive and for just weakened cruising over kill, but if you run rough water you will never be disappointed in the comfort and controle.
