THE EXO-ANKLE
®Better Guards
There are body parts that are especially sensitive to injury, and ankles are among them. They are solicited by the athlete’s movements and bear the weight of the body.
Repetitive injuries are also common and often result in a limitation of practice, whether occasional or intensive.
The German startup “Better Guards” aims to solve this problem by launching the first ankle brace equipped with a mini-piston and an envelope that acts like a second skin.
The technical challenge was to guarantee optimal freedom of movement and unparalleled protection; a challenge that Better Guards seems to have succeeded with this first product.
As we have already mentioned, technology will allow for increased protection of athletes in the years to come, whether through active or passive safety measures.”
