Review

review

The combination of flexion through the foot and rotational movement through the shock absorber (despite the extra weight) makes it really comfortable on most surfaces. Also, the combination of a pin and vacuum system means it feels very secure at all times, while not being as hot as needing to wear a liner over the top to hold it on.

what could be improved

The lack of side to side movement through the foot/ankle means it puts strain through the knee when walking on very uneven surfaces like cobbles. Could also be more reinforced around the front of the knee as the carbon tends to deteriorate from regularly kneeling down to play with my kids etc. Easy to have repaired though.

WOULD YOU RECOMMEND
Yes
reCOMMEND REASON

A good balance of weight, comfort and performance. And by far the most secure feeling prosthetic I’ve used so far
