When I woke up in the hospital after my amputation, I was completely dependent on others for help. I found this very frustrating at first as I had previously been an active man. A prosthetic fitting offered me the chance to regain my independence.

Thanks to the Terion K2 foot I am mobile again – both in our home and outside it, too. My wife in particular is really happy about that. The foot is lightweight but still gives me enough stability for walking and standing.

Due to an illness, I first lost my lower right leg and then later my knee as well. I use my Kenevo knee joint prosthesis together with a Terion K2 prosthetic foot. I got the foot quite soon after my amputation and could walk easily with it right away. Perhaps I have my ambition and my previous career as a sports teacher to thank for the fact that I could soon walk quite smoothly with it. But I am still determined to keep training so I can walk even more naturally.

“I am relentlessly ambitious.”

Just the fact that I have a solid rollover with the Terion K2 gives me a good feeling. It makes me feel safe, whether I’m on the grass or on the stone drive in front of our house. If I had to sum up the Terion K2 in one sentence, I’d say that it’s a feel-good foot that does everything important in my life along with me.

“Being mobile again and having your hands free is incredibly liberating. I still like taking care of my house myself, both indoors and in the garden.”

Terion K2 Confidence with every step

When it comes to stable walking and stand-ing, older users in particular want to be able to put their full confidence in their everyday prosthesis. With its carbon and fibreglass construction, the Terion K2 was developed to match this user profile and has proven to be especially effective for people with low to moderate mobility levels.

Thanks to its split forefoot spring, it’s also easy to control on uneven terrain. Its foam heel ensures a smooth, flexible rollover. Resistant to dirt, dust and splashwater, the Terion K2 is a robust everyday companion. Perhaps you’ll be soon be walking with the Terion K2 as well!
