Skaters have unique demands and anatomy. CTi features specific design advantages and/or adjustments that can be made to optimise performance for skating, including:
- A basic frame design that functions well for skating. The CTi is the only ligament knee brace that captures the tibia, locking down securely on the tibial crest. The rigid upper and lower arms combine with the hinges, condyle pads and straps to properly align the knee joint and provide an accurately-tracking exoskeletal support.
- CTi can be ordered with an Anti-Migration System (AMS) at an additional cost. This comfortable neoprene padding configuration virtually eliminates brace slippage, eliminating the annoying hassle of having to constantly adjust your brace under your pads.
- Streamlined frame shape and hinge design (especially on the medial side) contour closely with the leg. This keeps the brace very low-profile and able to be worn under pads or pants.
- CTi has no rigid components across the posterior (back) side of the brace, so you won’t experience pinching or cramping when pushing, pumping or landing tricks in deep flexion (squat).
- Custom made skate pads are available for CTi braces through: The One. Eight. Seven. For more info on 187 pads Contact us.
- CTi can be manufactured to be shorter, longer, thicker or thinner based upon your height and weight.
