after fucking up my right knee 2 times already in my past, and finally falling hard and hurting my left knee last week, ive decided its time to buy a brace before it gets any worse. do any of you guys have suggestions? ive looked into CTi braces, but thats really the extent of it, any other suggesstions?

asterix cell braces are the best things ever made. you can control rotation, articulation, everything you can think of.

i think im actually gonna go see an orthopedist and see if i can get a prescription for a pair of braces that insurance will pay for, because they payed for my knee shit when i tore my acl when i was 11

best bet. if your prepared to shell out for an expensive brace, best to get one properly fitted.

Stardox braces are great. I wore one for 4 years in football and never had any problems with my knee.

great idea, i need to get a knee brace, as i've had my right knee reconstructed twice and i recently strained my left knee pretty bad. so yeah its time to admit i'm not invicible. damnit. i'll have to see about that.

I have a Don Joy. I love it, good mobility and super light. A lot of college football teams use them. Insurance companies (especially Kaiser) are rather particular when it comes to coverage for braces. I got mine covered through a mistake in paperwork.

^really??? what is it that they are looking for? because i'm covered through kaiser. they also dont pay for physical therapy, which sucks, and is kind of stupid, because if they pay for the surgery then they should pay for at least some physical therapy, its part of the process. anyway, i've had alot of pt and had to pay for it all, that wasn't too cool.

Don Joys are what I use. I really like them. I have used Asterisk, Don Joy, EVS , and CTI. I really like the don joy.

I've had 7 knee surgeries, and I'd recommend the following:
GII Custom
GII Matrix
Breg Fusion
Breg X2K Custom
All times are Eastern (-5)
