So I'm pretty sure I'm gunna need a knee brace cause I kinda fucked up my knee. I don't want a shitty brace cause I hear that the shitty ones don't really last long if you ski often. I'm sure there's plenty of you here with knee braces and have prolly went through some shitty ones so if you've got suggestions hmu

Ive been using asterisk ultra cell knee braces for 4 years. I blew my knee out 5 years ago and I land in fucked up positions all the time ans never had an issue. The only thing I don’t like is that they’re pretty bulky.

Do you feel like you've lost any range of motion when you wear it??? I don't really know what it feels like to wear one

Absolutely not. It bends just as much as it should. It holds your thighs so you don’t go too far forward too. Its got KILLER range and is also the most comfortable brace I’ve worn. This is the 4th pair I’ve tried. They’re pricey but amazing.

I mean if my insurance covers it, then price doesn't really matter. It looks pretty dope, pretty comfy looking and the boa system seems soooo convenient. If I end up getting one, that might be the move. Thanks man
