I'm still not walking with a prosthesis due to multiple delays (it's been almost a year), but in large part due to you, i have hope still.
Know you're appreciated and that you do have an impact on many.
The AllPro is the best foot I've been in by far (in order since 2015: Rush 87, AllPro, Proflex XC, Proflex Pivot, AllPro). Just switched back to it for my newest socket and such a relief to be back in a light and springy foot. FYI for anyone watching and thinking it looked like it had too much much when spring when Christina compressed it: it comes with a standard and a stiff heel bumper. The standard one is preinstalled and that's what Christina has. The stiff heel bumper is great for anyone on the heavier side.
Whats also nice is the raw carbon fiber has grip on the bottom. Meaning i can still walk in it while the footshell is being cleaned and wet without sliping on my vinyl floors. I just got a demo 8" and it just barely fit by mms. But i love that i can jump in it.
That’s awesome, I’m happy with my Rush Rogue II …
I am a lbka and I have the Maverick Comfort AT and I love it. I had a Freedom Kinterra and it drove me nuts. My old prosthetist donated a College Park Trustep and I liked it a little better but my Maverick is awesome! I live on a 40 acre ranch with lots of uneven terrain and its great for it.
LBKA as well, was on MCAT and it was indeed very good, but the all pro is leagues ahead. The way it returns energy makes walking with it really easy (once you get the hang of it)
I've had several true steps. They are a great foot, but the damn parts wear out so quickly. I was running thru bushings and bumpers like crazy. That was a long time ago though. Maybe better now.
I have the same foot! I LOVE my Allpro!! I can run again! I can SPRINT AGAIN!! I love my Allpro
I have an all pro as well!
GREAT video and THANKS!!
I'm a right bka since 2017.
Hopefully getting my first vacuum socket and AllPro XTS.
Was unaware of split foot shell but will definitely get one!
Can you get them for below knee amp, I've had my vacuum brace for years now and hate it, its so heavy 8lbs im dragging around.
@@fuzzylogic33 YES I’m a Right BKA. Getting my 1st vacuum socket and AllPro next week I hope.
been looking for you around utube.
Heck yeah!! I love this foot so much!
as a all pro user, i totally agreed with you. Its is a amazing foot.
I just got the all pro 9 inch it’s life changing
The shell isn’t only good for water drainage, but MUCH easier to get the grass out after you mow; the dog hair once you’ve realized your foot is shedding more than your dog; and makes it MUCH easier to remove coins, earring and whatever else decides to take up residency in one’s foot. I love my all pro. I’ve had the 8” for a couple of years now. I heard they now have a rotation addition and man, that would be nice.
They do! I didn’t want the extra weight but my friends have it and love it.
@@AmputeeOT I tried to finagle one, but it was a no-go with my prosthetist because I’ve had my foot for less than 5 years 😔 I will say that I have pondered, far to often, how to make adaptations myself 😳
Had my first consult for prosthetics yesterday and they said this would be my first foot. Very excited for it!
I became a RBKA May 12 and am doing fairly well walking in my Ossur Pro Flex XC. I'm hoping to get back to playing tennis next year. I was told the Cheetah Leg would cost $7,000. My prosthetist said I can get a tennis prosthetic, which will be paid for, either with or without shock absorption. Neither looks great for tennis. This foot looks great for tennis!! I will keep this for tennis time and show it to my prosthetist. Thank you so much!!
The split foot shell is worlds better for me....
I’m a bi-lateral below knee and would love this foot but my prosthesis say s it’s almost too dynamic. I have the college park soles and am happy
I'm RBK and I'm trying out an AllPro DS on 19-Dec. Can't wait!
I have had the same AllPro 8" foot for the past 9 months and with my C-leg4 knee since 4 months ago. Your comments and ratings are spot on, Christina. I love its flexibility, but I feel a bit too much spring-release on toe-off. It's probably not appropriate for new AKs.
It looks really cool when wearing shorts, but the giant C-shape is tough to hide cosmetically when you want to dress up. I take a chunk of dense foam from an old leg and stick it inside my sock to fill up the void under the curve like a fake ankle.
Like you, I also needed a thin layer of foam behind the curve to protect the carbon fiber -- mostly from hard stair edges that were putting holes in my jeans. 🦿
Weight matters with the old mech knees. They needed some weight at the end to function properly. With today's micro processors weight isn't an issue so everything can be lighter! I deal with Orthotech in Michigan here but they travel to other states also and I'm a 20+ year aka!
I like your the foot, what’s the the suggestion for prosthetics leg for below the knee? Active person!
My bk friends who have it love it.
I'm shocked there is no closed captioning for this video 😳. Anyway, I'm a R Hip Disarticulate (HD) and have not yet gone to get a prosthesis. I'm assuming even though HDs and Hemipelvectomies pretty much have a 'bucket style' shell, we can use the same legs and foot prosthetics...correct me if I'm wrong.
It looks like the AllPro can be worn without the cover. Am I correct in thinking that?
No not really. It won’t fit inside a shoe correctly in that case and will get worn out prematurely. You could have a prosthetist permanently attach a sole to the bottom of it.
@@AmputeeOT thank you for the information. I was told last week that my doctors might have to amputate my leg below the knee if they can't stop whatever is causing it to degrade so quickly. I think I will bring up this foot if we do end up having to go that route so I can be active again
I always wear flip flops or sandals...this foot doesn't have a sandal split between the big toe and second toe?
does the curve make it super noticeable you have a prosthetic in jeans? 🤔
Looks neat- how could you get it with a suction system 🤔
Probably. I don’t wear jeans. You can use it with any type of suspension system.
Comeback 🎉🎉
Past weeks,I dreamt about having a Running Blades,I always want it cause I only had a walking prosthesis,I can jog and a lil bit of sprint using it but while sprint I feel pain after 10 minutes🤣😔
Hi Christine (don't know if I spelled it right) I have a question if you would please answer me back, what ever happened to the Canadian girl I think she went by Motor Mouth?
You are probably talking about Krystal. She was from Florida. Unfortunately she passed away.
Cool
Can you recomend a shoe for below knee amputees, thanks.
when did you remove your knee?
What's price this leg
I really miss your cool intro withthe robotic arms
Maybe you need tabi socks with that since it has two toes. 😅
Never mind, that was just the black cover thing
Wao you are so beautiful ❤
Indian prices
