Sports Prostheses
I am over fifty years old now but still maintain a very active lifestyle. I attribute much of that to the use of sports specific prostheses. I hike, play handball, bicycle, and cross-country ski. I have made many different limbs for a variety of sports and recreation activities. If you have an idea of a prosthesis for a specific activity then I can make it. My eight years on the US Disabled Ski team and my continuing contacts within the sports organizations give me a unique insight into the needs of the active amputee. Sports limbs are not just for the world class amputee but also for recreationally active person of all ages.The most functional sports prosthesis that I have ever made is the simple swim/shower leg that is designed to get wet. This prosthesis allows the wearer to stand in the shower or walk into the ocean without fear of ruining expensive componentry. I make a lot of these for people.
