Endolite Introduces the echelonVT

The echelonVT merges the fluid movement of our hydraulic ankle with the responsive function of our e-carbon foot springs and machined titanium spring. This combination results in a smooth heel-to-toe transition on all surfaces, absorbs ground forces, and provides energetic tibial progression and up to 15° of axial rotation.

• Self-aligning feature provides comfort while standing or traversing varied terrain.
• Independent, hydraulic-controlled plantarflexion and dorsiflexion.
• Hydraulic ankle dorsiflexes, which allows for greater toe clearance in swing phase.
• A dynamic, precision-engineered spring enhances the ankle's fluid movement.
• Foot shell and glide sock included.

WillowWood's New Sleeve for Elevated Vacuum

Our new LimbLogic® Sleeve works with the LimbLogic controller to ensure an airtight, secure system. This fabric-covered silicone sleeve comes with a separate silicone cuff. The cuff is placed directly over the socket's trim line for extra protection from wear and impact. The sleeve is then donned over the cuff.

This clever, yet simple, design allows the cuff to be repositioned. Should a patient puncture the sleeve, he or she can immediately rotate the cuff and regain an airtight seal. Additionally, the fabric used on the LimbLogic Sleeve enhances knee flexibility for ease and comfort of movement.

Endolite Introduces the avalon

The avalon foot provides 12° of controlled ankle motion, allowing the user to safely negotiate stairs, ramps, and environmental obstacles with increased confidence and security.

Benefits include:

• KKDorsiflexes from midstance to toe off for a smooth rollover.
• KK Remains dorsiflexed through swing phase for improved toe clearance, to minimize the risk of falls.

• KK Provides a more natural gait; reduces the need to compensate by hip hiking, circumduction, or lifting the knee to clear the toe during swing phase.
• KK Biomimetic ankle motion encourages equal loading during ambulation, which leads to less stress and thereby preserves the sound side.
