Hey there,
I have an request for a prosthetic device to be used for a B/K. He was at
an amputee hockey tournament and noticed one of the players had a hockey
skate blade as part of his prosthesis. It was not his everyday leg, he just
wore it to play hockey. He currently uses a regular skate an ties it to his
limb, but really wants this hockey limb. I am under the impression it
resembles a Flex Foot. Does anybody know of its existence or is this a
homemade limb. The puck drops soon...
