Get ready for the coming season!

I have 1 and used to use it for like 1 season after my post ACL rebuild. The biggest problem I find in using it is my skin allergic to the tapes. I also find the joints of the brace may not coincide with the joints of the knee when in use. Nowadays I don't use it anymore.

應該可以穿在雪褲外，就沒有過敏癢的問題了，之前不是有個短片中有個教學者腳上就有帶一隻護膝套。

這個主要是防止膝蓋受傷的嗎？

之前看那短片看到時，我以為是要拿來復健或是固定膝蓋用的呢。

用起來有什麼特別差別嗎？

也一樣, 問題是在積聚了的汗, 但應該只是我自己的問題, 每個人都對不同東西有過敏.

絕對是

用起來有什麼特別差別嗎？

個人覺得是沒有.

Hi Carver, you changed your avatar? I've never used knee braces before. I am not sure if they will function as what's said in their advertisement.

Hi Carver, you changed your avatar?

yeah! it represents what i m after, psia dolphine turns. i already achieved pmts dolphine, so thats whats left to interest me. its difficult enough for me as i know little about psia.

as i understand it, it only prevent hiperextension, it wont function if the tibia is twisted against the femur! becareful, dont take it for granted that it will save your ACL. Try to imaging how the brace response to a twice of tibia against femur and you can tell it yourself. I dont get used to serious, but this one! no joke

a little bit more. the misalignment between the two axis (the brace's axis vis the knee's axis could easily grind out your knee. its only from my experience. if in doubt try to figure out more from the internet or consult an ACL specialist(dont consult ORP as they dont know skiing as much as u do).

Thanks for advice! Now I know their limitation.
BTW, how come I don't see my avatar? I have uploaded a small icon from my control panel, and I do see it there. Strange that I don't see if from my posts.

我是norman。

跟是不是管理員沒關係，且我只是「瘋狂滑雪人」的版主而已。

我開新帳號來測試看看好了。

我只能說，管理員很小氣的，但也不能浪費錢，因為這論壇程式的錢跟空間是管理員出的，我只是出網域要申請的公司跟網域費而已。

目前已知，潛水員是沒資格上傳自己的個人照片的，但我知個人照片能上傳的檔案很小，真的很小，小到我都覺得很小氣。

而那個注音註冊還真的有點難，我第一次就打錯了，不知可不可以另外發表文章讓想註冊又不會打註音的人自己去貼好了。

我記得好像要上傳自己的照片有最低限制一定要發表幾篇文章才行。

順便問個問題，要是膝蓋受傷不靈活時，用這個有保護或加強膝蓋強度的作用嗎？

我寫11篇了，看起來還是不能上傳，看來不是要滿50篇就是100篇，再不然就是200篇了，應該不太可能超過這篇數吧？

聽起來效果沒想像中的好。

那可減輕膝蓋負擔嗎？

另外您的留言篇數快800篇了，還不能上傳個人照片嗎？不會要滿1000篇吧？我記得我也是留很多篇後那個上傳個人照片的格子才會出現，但我忘了是多少篇了，不過我上傳的照片好像不能超過4kb的樣子，所以都是控制在3點多kb而已。

我覺得是沒有用的, 但如果是玩 freestyle 的話是可以防止落地時的 hyper-extension. 是可以保護好 acl 的. 我不玩 freestyle. 所以才不用.

但是聽起來還是有用的，因為有時意外就是意外，誰也說不清楚是什麼回事囉。

不過像我這麼懶的人，我應該是懶得戴，然後努力把動作練到正確又能自然反應避開危險就好了，這樣反而還可再加強自己的技術反應。

我這帳號還沒出現上傳方塊，看來請大家多多努力留言囉，留言篇數夠就能上傳自己的個人照了，可能真的要滿500或1000篇吧。

Get ready for the coming season!

To my experience/understanding, external supporting devices may give better support and comfort for some minor [joint]movements, but they don't really work for the full-blown, full-action sports. As Carver indicated, they may create more problems than they solve. The forces for the high level techniques must develop from inside/internal joint movements and supports.

I busted my knee when I was developing Taichi Skiing 1986. I was following a guy down on a narrow steep chute at Alyaska, AK and he freaked out and stopped in the middle of the chute. To avoid the immanent collision, I forced a sharp right turn, but crashed on the steep side of the chute, and busted my left knee (I think that injury may actually set up the stage for my now arthritis). What do I mean by "busted"? The lower leg was still there, but I can neither move it nor feel it as though the lower leg was gone (that was really weird feeling). We were down and out in Alaska at the time (remember the story my flight school was closed?) and nearly flat broke (and that came two months later), no money for doctors. So I used my Kungfu 推拿 knowledge massaged/fixed the lower leg back to have some feeling and reset the knee joint a bit so it gained a little movement back. As my Kungfu training and firm belief that proper exercise heals all injured/non-broken joints and muscles like mine, I went back to ski the next days, skied mildly but pushing... two weeks later, the knee joint popped back in, and I gained the full control of knee/leg back; I fixed my knee, at least I thought.

There were still some acute angles I would feel painful and weak lingering, I thought I brought it, not much I can do, so I continued to ski with them the whole season, only tried to avoid those movements that caused pains. I carried that condition for eight years.

Nevertheless, later when I was developing a warm-up exercise for my Kungfu classes, the left hip popped, and all my left leg pains were gone, and I regained the full control and full range movements of my left leg back. So I knew that warm-up exercise worked and now it's developed into the full-blown Shen style Taichi Qi-Gong, (haven't figured out the description yet, maybe later,)

Not sure what's the problem with your knees, nevertheless, this knee exercise did fixed a few knees, on and off the 'net,

後來請管理員搞定了，現在應該沒限制了吧？只是這個大頭圖好像都會被縮這麼小而已。
