It's an "airsling" - in all those pictures, it's "down" - but take a look
at the website for more info.

It takes a lot of the jolt out of riding --- that's a grandma you're seeing
on the hydrofoil there ...

It also helps you manage line tension:

The AirSling’s design includes a shock (developed exclusively by Fox Racing Shox for AirSling) which along with allowing the rider to load the line harder than ever before - also has another added benefit…when the air pressure is set correctly, the AirSling absorbs some of the force of impact when you take off and land - creating a consistent bump; saving your shoulders, forearms elbows & wrists from the pull of a conventional landing with a no-stretch line.
