A rigid core (6) extends within the sheath. A member (22) divides the cavity into two portions (14 and 16), one being filled with elastomeric material and the second portion (16), adjacent the closed end of the sheath, is a pocket of compressible fluid defined by the interior of the closed end of the sheath and the member 22.
