Sidestix Discovery

Sidestix All Terrain, Modular Forearm Crutches: Discovery Model

Designed for use by amputees and lifetime crutch users who have a thirst for the great outdoors, sport, hiking, endurance racing and living life to the full; Sidestix forearm crutches feature a unique, modular design which allows every aspect of the crutch to be tailored to the special needs of the user. From the grip style, right down to the foot assembly and even the tube wrap color. Created by a mountaineering, Paralympian and occupational therapist, Sidestix are set to ensure that ‘crutch’ is no longer used as a dirty word!

In the Discovery model, the designers have done away with the shock absorbing system which is a feature of the Boundless and Explorer models, to produce the brand’s most lightweight forearm crutch. The lack of moving parts on the Discovery model makes it the ideal choice of Sidestix for endurance races and use through muddy, wet and sandy terrain. The Discovery model has a minimum user weight requirement of 50lbs., with a minimum height requirement of 42“.

Your Discovery Sidestix will see you up rocky slopes, wet turf covered hills, sand, water and, with the snowshoe assembly and ice spindles, even across glaciers and heretofore unfathomably hostile landscapes. What’s more, you’ll hardly even notice they’re there, as they weight in at just 730g, with the help of carbon fibre lower tubes and a expert care. Finally, crutches that can help you reach your sporting, hiking, endurance and lifestyle goals!
