Good Afternoon List Serve,
Thank you for responding to my question. I got plenty of responses. Due to the amount of responses, this will be just a summary. A majority of the responses utilized carbon fiber systems, both OTS and Custom. ToeOff and WalkOn received the most responses with an OTS design, and Phat Brace being the most for Custom. Some suggest a GR AFO, others Articulated with either a DF stop, or Tamarack joints turned around for PF assist.
Thank you again,
