    Rockshox Darts/Toras depending on your budget.

    That's presuming the Shockwave bikes have a 1.125" headtube size.

    What's wrong with your current ones?
    S-works Stumpjumper FSR

    I'll see you at the end.

    You'll see me on the floor.

    In other threads you have asked for suggestions for a new bike.
    If i were you, i would get something second hand. It isn't worth spending any money on your shockwave.
    In the reading of your other threads, i've already concluded that you want a cheap bike for posing, If your parents will let you buy a bike from Ebay, search for Specialized Hardrock. You cant go far wrong with one of them and if you decide you actually want to ride it, it is a good starter bike.

    HardRock
    This would be a good XC starter bike. I bet if you offered him £250, he would take it.

    To be honest dont buy new forks it aint worth it for them bikes. I would strip them down there is nothing in them. Clean the inners give thema regrease adn build them back up. Give that a go first cos like previuosly said it aint worth bothering for new forks as the frame aint worth the money spent on it.
    the only was to push your limits is to overstep then now and then
