calcutta-fishing-lpi00.jpgThis great looking 3/4” thick pad has been scientifically developed to reduce the risk of injuries associated with heavy sea conditions.

By combining different foam densities, the pad relieves over 90% of the shock caused by the impact of a boat running over big waves, a discomfort we have all experienced before. The immediate relief on your feet, knees, back and neck will astonish you and you’ll never want to leave the dock without it.


Across the United States, each year thousands of people sustain severe knee and back injuries due to boating and water related accidents. Children and teens are at high-risk for these devastating injuries — many of which can be prevented. Chronic pain resulting from injuries to the ligaments and tendons of the skeleton have been well recognized. However, soft-tissue injuries to the ligaments, tendons and fascia of the lower back, injuries most associated with boating, have been largely ignored as a potential source of chronic back pain. Safety measures can and should be taken to avoid this ongoing source of discomfort.

To understand how Calcutta’s Orthopedic Shock Absorber works you must first understand a little bit about the human body. The knee joint is cushioned by articular cartilage that covers the ends of the tibia and femur, as well as the underside of the patella. Additionally there are pads of cartilage that further cushion the joints, acting as small shock absorbers between the bones. These components of your knee, along with your leg muscles, work together to manage the stress your knee receives as you pound from wave to wave.

The Calcutta® Orthopedic Shock Absorber significantly reduces the heavy stresses placed on integral parts of your fragile ankle, knee and spine. As you come down on each wave, your skeletal system is cushioned and tremendously reduces the impact. What once felt like a continuous series of uncomfortable “booms and bams”, now feels like a smooth, comfortable ride.

The Calcutta® Orthopedic Shock Absorber is available in 2 convenient sizes: 16” x 23” and 16” x 47”. The pad perfectly fits inbetween leaning posts and consoles as well as helm chairs and bridge stations. The 16” x 23” pad is also ideal for poling and casting platforms. The non skid pattern on the underside of the Orthopedic Shock Absorber practically glues the pad into position.

Calcutta’s Orthopedic Shock Absorber can also be used as a lounge or sun bathing cushion. Close to four feet long, the thick and comfortable pad makes you feel like your laying on a bed of feathers.

Testimonials “After 14 years as a guide I was diagnosed with a herniated disk in my lower back. The doctors said it was caused by the repetitive impact of riding on a boat. They told me I either had to reduce this impact or quit fishing. After a long search I discovered the Calcutta® Orthopedic Shock Absorber. Now I can fish everyday and the pad absorbs the impact, sparing the un-needed stress on my back and knees. I only wish I had one years ago. Once you try one you will wonder how you ever fished without it. Simply put, It will protect your back, knees, and neck from impact related injuries caused by long boat rides.”

Captain Ed Walker World record holding guide & 20 time tournament winner “As a physician I frequently deal with patients with arthritis, herniated disks and degenerative disk diseases. Unfortunately these things are made worse by the jarring and vibration of a boat. I highly recommend the Calcutta Orthopedic Shock Absorber. You will immedietely notice the difference the first time you use it.” Vincent J. DeLella, D.O.
