Hi All

I have a male through knee amputee that is moving to Canada for part of the year and wants us to make him a skiing leg. Being based in Cape Town, South Africa its not a request we get all the time. Please could you let me know which knee and foot components you have found to be best for skiing. He is a beginner skier and has also only been an amputee for nearly a year and he had other complication like a sever pelvic fracture which have delayed ambulation so please keep this in mind when sharing your knowledge. He is a wealthy gentleman so cost is not too much of a factor.

Thanking you in advance.
