Who all wears a knee brace? What kind do you wear?

I haven't in the past but one of my friends tore his acl last week strapping in and it kind of freaked me out.

Last year i tore my knee all up on those banshee bungee cord things.. completely separated LCL and biceps femoris, damaged ACL, cartilage damage, and stretched my peroneal (which i'm still recovering from; getting better every day though.)

i'm thinking about the ossur cti.. supposedly that's the best one for sports and stuff.

You hit the nail on the head. I wear one on each leg. I wouldn't be able to ride without them.

I've also had other braces (medi, donjoy,etc) and nothing makes me as confident as the ossur braces. They're built exactly for our needs.

I didn't know they had a wakeboard team! That's awesome. Yeah i've seen quite a few guys wearing those braces. I'm just hoping insurance pays for the thing if I get a prescription from my orthopedic doctor.. otherwise I might have to buy something else, apparently they're pretty steep Neutral
