SideStix Ventures has developed the first and only damper shock absorbent crutches with attachable tips for a variety of terrains from neighbourhood streets to snow covered mountains. Researched, designed and tested “by users for users” for over eight years, our design provides joint protection, minimizes vibration to hands, arms & shoulders and maximizes comfort and safety for the user over the long distance – something we know every person using forearm crutches will value.
Although amputees are obvious candidates for SideStix, almost 50% of current users have neurological disorders with the majority of those being SCI. Comfort, joint protection and modularity plus a lifetime warranty, set SideStix apart from anything else available today. You may have seen their appearance on an episode of CBC’s Dragon’s Den.
