What is the traction?
Apolla Shocks come with an optional patented refreshable grip layer on the bottom. This grip layer is:
- Patented (US Patent 10,076,436).
- Refreshable with E6000 Spray Adhesive (https://www.apollaperformance.com/products/e6000-spray-adhesive) for the life of the Shock.
- Flat (no bumps or dots, the grip is engineered into the layer itself, so you still feel the floor).
- Customizable to your preferred grip level (it wears in during break-in).
You wear the grip down to YOUR floor and YOUR feet, then maintain that level by refreshing as needed.
Should you pick WITH traction or NON?
Depends on your floor. See How do I decide between traction or non-traction? (https://intercom.help/apolla-performance-wear/en/articles/11853616-how-do-i-decide-between-traction-or-non-traction)

Floor-safety note:
Floor and finish compatibility varies. Before using traction, E6000, rosin, or any cleaner on a studio floor, home floor, stage, or turning tool, confirm with the floor or tool manufacturer, your studio owner, or the facility manager. Always spot-test first in a hidden area and follow that surface's care instructions. Apolla cannot guarantee results on every surface and cannot take responsibility for floor or tool damage caused by unsupported cleaners, refreshers, failure to spot-test, or use outside our care guidance.
