Running Blade
A running blade is a specialized prosthetic designed for athletes, especially runners, who have lower limb amputations. Made from lightweight materials like carbon fiber, it mimics the natural spring and energy return of a healthy leg. The blade’s curved shape helps absorb impact upon running and then releases stored energy to propel the runner forward efficiently. Its design allows for increased mobility and performance, enabling amputees to participate in high-level sports while providing durability and comfort during intense activity.
