KNEE BRACE NEED HELP

[spiketon]

i tore my ACL last year and i had to go through surgery and a shit load of rehab and when i got my brace it was some old fat ass who knew nothing about skiing and i told him i was trying to get sponsered this year and that i was into exteme skiing so i would need a hardcore brace like the ones i see in Powder magizenes n shit the ones shane McConkey wears....but he gave me this suuuuper shitty Velcro 'Edge Lite' brace which cost 800$ (300$ more than the one i saw in the mag) WHAT CAN I DO I NEED HELP!!! CAN I RETURN IT!!???!?!?!? I HATE THIS BRACE!!! PLEASE HELP!!!

go to your doctor and they will get you a coustomied knee brace, cuz i tore mine in march got a coustomized one and they work awesome

 

[spiketon]

[sexy_skier_babii]

i dont know .. i dont think so cuz if its coustomized it wont fit anyone else.

[stylishskier]

ask about a CTI^2 (read C T I squared) brace, those seem to be the most reliable and popular for all of you post ACL people
