Sidestix Explorer
Sidestix All-terrain, Modular Forearm Crutches: The Explorer Model
Boundless Sidestix have been designed for use by amputees and lifetime crutch users who don’t want their forearm crutches to slow them down, no matter the terrain! Considered the Lexus of crutches, Sidestix feature a ground-breaking modular design that will allow users to customize every aspect of their product, so that their Explorer Sidestix are tailored to their unique and special needs.
The brainchild of a record setting mountaineer amputee and a Paralympian – occupational therapist, Explorer forearm crutches are worlds away from the hassle-sticks you know and hate! The Explorer system does require a minimum user weight of 50lbs and a 42” height.
In the Explorer model, certain, more expensive features and materials have been done away with. Shock absorbers have been foregone and aviation grade aluminum has replaced carbon fiber in the lower tubes, keeping the weight of the crutches down while making them as affordable as possible for the end user. Each and every lifetime crutch user deserves a chance to benefit from the outstanding design and manufacturing quality of Sidestix.
With their patented articulating tip and foot assembly that accurately emulates the movement of the shoulder and ankle joints, Explorer 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. Finally, crutches that can help you reach your sporting, hiking, endurance and lifestyle goals!
From the patented grip system to the tube material, even the color of your lower tube…every individual module of Sidestix comes with a range of options, tailored to a variety of special needs. Because every pair of Sidestix (or individual Sidestick!)is custom fitted and made to order, we will require your measurements and details before the time. We ship from Canada, absolutely free of charge!
