How Renoun’s VibeStop Tech Keeps You in Control

As a Vermont-based brand, Renown knows ice. As does any skier who’s gone face to face with an icy run that leaves you with chattering edges and even flakier confidence. While skiing in slick conditions is bound to happen, hitting an ice patch doesn’t have to be a stressor. You just need the right tools for the job. That’s why Renoun engineered skis with VibeStop technology, the game-changing innovation that works to dampen vibration to deliver unmatched edge grip and stability when conditions get spicy. 

The Science

Each Renoun ski is embedded with our proprietary VibeStop technology. That technology centers on a non-Newtonian polymer, which when placed in a ski, stiffens under impact and flexes when at rest. This allows the material to counteract vibrations in real time.


When you hit ice, those high-frequency vibrations travel through your ski, creating instability. Traditional skis let those vibrations reverberate unchecked, but with VibeStop, the material absorbs and dissipates energy, preventing that dreaded chatter and giving your edges the consistent contact they need to carve through ice like it’s fresh corduroy—or at least maintain enough stability to emerge unscathed.

Stability When It Matters

The beauty of VibeStop isn’t just that it reduces vibration. It’s that it optimizes stability exactly when and where you need it. Icy slopes require precision, and with every turn, VibeStop reduces excess movement, which allows riders to maintain better edge hold and confidence. This means fewer skipped turns, more control, and the ability to push your limits on terrain that otherwise might have you struggling to hang on.

A Game-Changer for All Conditions

While VibeStop is your best ally on ice, the benefits extend beyond those frozen morning laps. From variable conditions to unexpected hard patches, the adaptive technology makes for smooth, predictable, and ready-for-anything turns. Whether you’re charging down steep terrain or linking precise turns on a wind-scraped ridgeline, Renoun skis will stay planted when it matters most.

Experience the Difference
