Experienced users will understand that a day on the tennis court requires a different level of biomechanical control than a day at the office!
The Step-Smart Brace may appear “bent” or “twisted” when it’s not on the foot and ankle, but this is all part of the science of biomechanics behind this unique design.
Why may it appear to be bent? The preflexion angle is desired for preload before heel strike which is necessary to manage immediate deceleration of the foot. In addition, the angle of the calf section will provide clearance even in the dorsiflexion range of motion.
Why does it look a bit twisted? The brace accommodates the natural toe out of human ambulation. This is desired for good calf section tracking on the calf. The articulated calf section works best when it travels back and forth in the line of progression.
