JAWS Strength X-Wave Shoulder Press

JAWS Strength X-Wave Shoulder Press

Golden Era Design. Reinvented for Today.

The JAWS Strength X-Wave Shoulder Press is a modern reimagining of one of the most revered machines in gym history - the Cybex X-Cross Converging Shoulder Press. Loved by lifters for its joint-friendly biomechanics and humbling resistance curve, the original earned a cult following. JAWS has taken that golden era inspiration and rebuilt it from the ground up with heavier-duty construction, precision engineering, and long-term reliability for today’s serious gyms.

Built for Pain-Free Power

Anyone who has trained long enough knows the toll traditional barbell or dumbbell pressing can take on the shoulders. The X-Wave preserves the shoulder-friendly mechanics that made the Cybex model famous:

• Converging press path - the hands track together as you press, reducing joint stress while keeping tension locked on the delts.

• Unilateral movement - each arm works independently, ensuring balanced development and removing strength imbalances.

• Natural dumbbell-like feel - without the instability or shoulder irritation of free weights.

This makes the X-Wave a perfect choice for building shoulder strength and size without the wear-and-tear of conventional pressing.

Strength That Humbles

Don’t let the smooth mechanics fool you. The resistance profile is brutally honest - 40kg per side on this machine feels a lot like pressing 40kg dumbbells. Even seasoned lifters will find themselves challenged, making the X-Wave as effective for strength athletes as it is for physique trainers.

The JAWS Advantage

While the original was great, the X-Wave is built like a tank:

• Heavy-gauge steel frame for maximum rigidity and long-term use.

• Industrial-grade bearings and pivots for silky-smooth motion under heavy loads.

• Oversized ergonomic handles to reduce pressure on the hands and keep you locked into the lift.

• Compact footprint for easy placement in commercial gyms without sacrificing performance.

Why Choose the X-Wave?

• Shoulder-friendly pressing mechanics that extend your training longevity.

• Independent arm paths for symmetry, balance, and safety.

• Heavy-duty build designed to outlast high-traffic commercial use.

• A heritage design that pays homage to the best of the past - made even better by JAWS.

The JAWS Strength X-Wave Shoulder Press is more than just a machine. It’s a revival of one of the greatest shoulder pressing machines created - engineered for the lifters of today.
