hey guys im looking for a knee brace that works in kitesurfing ive seen some that were specificailly made for water use just have no idea where to get them or on the cost involved any info appreciated
Do a search, this topic has been covered to death. I use a Don Joy Armor Extreme. Doesn't get much better. Not cheap though, but worth the piece of mind.
yeh i did a search of both knee and brace but couldnt find anything then googled don joy armour and it came up with a seabreeze topic named knee braces :) strange? anyway they sound awsome not really worried about the cost if it means i dont have to sit out a season, any one know where to get one in perth?
hey yeah i second the CTI knee braces
I have had mine since just after a knee reconstruction and they are great i feel really comfortable doing unhooked tricks only 7 months after my operation, they are more expensive but deffinetly worth it!
CTI braces are like 800 a pop or 1200 for the customs. just go to a physio office and ask where you can get braces from and then go to what ever shop they tell you and order one. i know there is a shop somewhere around Airborne's shop
The one that Charl is refering to might be the one that I got my "moonboot" from when I fractured my fibula last year.
They are at 25 Guthrie St in Osborne Park and have all sorts of braces and stuff.

hey cheers for the help guys.
Ive got a MRI booked for tuesday and that will be able to tell me which ligiment is the one that needs bracing the most hopefully i can get away with something cheaper
i also booked an appiontment with orthotic computer store to get fitted for the cti.. but im not sure because thethe don joy is on ebay for like $550 they look pretty similair ..
$850 is a lot but i would pay it if it meant i could ride without worrying about my knee we going to shark bay for a week next week so i need something asap which sigh too many choices :)

I just got an Ossur Cti OTS brace from Julie. Great service, fast delivery time. And if you need to use the brace for work purposes, it's tax deductible!
I paid $899 for the brace including Express Postage and got in a couple of days.
