Hello List,
I have an eager 28yr old transtibial amputee who wants to work on
attaching his prosthetic socket/pylon directly down to a rollerblade or
hockey skate. I have, in the past, set up a regular prosthesis to lace
up into either of these boots, but this gentleman wants to do a direct
attachment to the skate/blade for maximum control. I'm hoping someone
out there can direct me to some photos and/or suggestions on the best
way to go about this. I thank you in advance for any/all help!
Sincerely,
Amy Paulios CP
