It's been way too long since my last update. Here's a quick update for now and I'll be posting more videos soon.
Mule Deer vs. Coyote

This was an interesting standoff between a lone coyote and a small herd of mule deer. I only filmed a small portion of an exchange that went on for about 10 minutes.

This footshell is much easier to take off and put on, which makes cleaning a lot easier.

Norco Storm 5 - Amputee Rider
Просмотров 4938 месяцев назад
I decided to get back into mountain biking again, after a LONG time away from the sport. I use my peg leg for riding as it is less cumbersome than a regular prosthetic foot. As time goes by and I get more comfortable, I'll be posting more about any modifications I make. Special thanks to Cranky's Bike Shop in Aldergrove for getting me set up!
Another Update- Crutches, Jeans & Pant Leg

In this video I explain some changes we've made to my crutches, what sort of jeans work well with a prosthesis and how I secure my empty pant leg when I'm on crutches.

An Easy Fix For Super Bright LED Interior RV Lights.

On many newer RVs, the interior LED lights are bright, but too harsh on thr eyes. An easy fix is to place an amber gel sheet inside the lens to give the lights a softer, warmer glow.

Hello, I am Surendra B.K from South-East Asia country Nepal. I am below knee right leg amputee using prosthesis leg. I want to enhance my mobility but these carbon foot, you are using and showing, are expensive for me. Could you help me to have used carbon foot so that I can use it and enhance my mobility.
I have no left leg and for some reason I have never been able to master this type of crutch. I stick with the underarm design and have taught myself to frequently use one which allows me a free hand.
Thank god i found this video
E is an extremely heavy duty tire for a 4runner, good and bad. Beautiful vehicle
So you tighten the rear grub screw to bring the toes downward and reverse to lift the toes higher and heel downwards??? Also at the same time working the opposite screw in the opposite direction??? Tighten one and loosen the opposite other?? Great video though 👍👍👍
Where did you have this made? I am above the knee amputee and have not been successful using the standard Prothesis. It’s been to heavy
My prosthetist, Award Prosthetics, made it for me.
@@monoped_adventureswhere are they located?
@@doracollins7 Burnaby, Canada
@@monoped_adventuresoh well TY
Im doing this this summer. How long does the drive up take if i can ask?
I went really slow to enjoy the ride and it took about 90 minutes up
You are the best teacher on prosthetic leg thanks and God bless you
Just got one this week after 8 years of Rush Hi-Pros. We'll see how it goes...
I am 4 months in with crps amputee. Thank goodness, my DRG stimulator is carrying me thru.
Five days ago a relative had the left fot/leg cut about 30cm below the knee. She´s just had her 80´s birthday - but I really want her to get the best prosthetic leg/fot available. Sure. Was a while since she climbed mountains and run marathons, but I belive that she would prefer the benefits of a lighter, more agile, and more dampend foot. Sweden. Not sure how the authorities rule about the cost´s.. Perhaps she´ll get a wooden leg :/
the giant was standing where ur truck is .....45 ft tall.....look on Google maps
Excellent walk sir unbelievable
Great !!!
I'm glad you're doing well. Great to see you here. I'm still teaching, playing music and was playing tennis with the great All Pro XTS foot. A few weeks ago, out of the blue, my wrist started hurting and my hand got swollen. Had an X Ray. Nothing. I do have periodic pain in my wrist. It's better but still not right in one spot so no tennis yet.
❤❤❤
I just got a 2024 ORP. I also have a BTK amputation of my right foot. I drive with my left foot same as I have seen you do. The 4Runner is a tight fit for my prosthetic. I’m tall so it’s clumsy to say the least. I only have about 4500 miles on my truck. The KO2s are my next tire I believe. Thanks for your advice. I’m just over one year with the amputation. It’s tough at times.
Do you know how does this foot compare to the Ossur Proflex Xc Torsion|?
They are similar, and both are excellent choices as they are both rated as a K3/K4 level foot.
Thanks for the info.. glad you made the video, so I didn't ask this question in a forum and watch it blow up.
Thanks for watching!
Just curious…I have been using the Allpro for 4 years now, but am getting a new one and switching to the xts. Just wondering if you know a comparison between the two to know if there’s much of a difference. I’ve tried other feet with a rotation function and they really didn’t have a rotation function. BKA here and was a pro athlete and had my knee reconstructed long before losing my leg. I’d love a rotation function to prolong my knee health.
You don't really notice any rotation, but the slight absorption of rotational impact really reduces load thru my knee joint. Maybe a better way of describing it is that it feels smooth on rough terrain and high impact?
Can you do a 5k in this??
Absolutely!
This is what I'm tryin to figure out
Where did you find the zipper leg pants
I had a family friend sew the zipper in them.
Bro a bear is wild
Thanks for all that great information brother you are helping lots of peoples with legs problems you been through lots I see in this video hang in there keep doing what you love from brother from Toronto Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Hello could you post more info on the adaptskin 50 I’m having issues finding it in Europe
I will!
Brazil very expensive
I’m a disabled vet 4 surgeries on right ankle last one totol fusion,, my lower leg painful all the time and shorter, thinking on amputation,, so I’m very active and also hunt do you think I would have a better quality of life ? I don’t want to spend a lot of time inactive ?
So in other words you have about 10 inches of ground clearance?
Correct, but if I air down, then I'm pretty much back at stock ground clearance of 9.6
Thank you for speaking to the weight of the tires. 👍
Hi there, i am about to put the same tires and wheels on my 2019 4runner 5rs, any problem so far?
No problems so far. They are a much heavier tire than stock, so power and milage will be affected. You might get slight rubbing on thr SR5 because they sit a little bit lower, but it can easily be fixed. Good luck!
@@monoped_adventures ,thank you, i am going to lift it.
This guy is so cool
Any updates on the tires?
They're holding up really well, with no wobble or balance issues at higher speeds. My only complaint is that they don't seem to flex as much as radials, but I haven't lowered the pressure in them at all either. I'll try them a 4 PSI and see how they react. So far, they're great.
@@monoped_adventures cool I just bought some for my rzr got 8 ply big horn's suck!!
Thanks for this video! I'm looking to replace ,my current foot with the Filauer All Pro and I noticed that you got the XTS model which has a pivot at the ankle. This only adds to the weight of a perfectly designed foot, in the function of a "normal" human foot the pivot is accomplished from the hip down to the femur and then to the foot, the foot pivots on the ball of the foot, if you pivot on the ankle, you will have a dislocated ankle. Going back to the weight, the All pro is 450 g vs the XTS which is 780 g! Sorry for my medical soapbox, I still appreciate your perfectly lucid explanations on prosthetic hardware.
The XTS is not a pivot. It's a torsional shock absorber, which reduces rotational impact transfered to the socket and knee.
That makes more sense, do you know how much it weighs?@@monoped_adventures
@ruygutierrez2995 789g, but it feels much lighter because of the amount of energy return. I've tried a lighter Ossur and Ottobock K3/K4 type foot and neither of them felt as nimble as the AllPro.
I'm picking up my All Pro XTS tomorrow with the Procover Footshell and am very excited. I want it for tennis. I demoed it a few months ago. They only sent the yellow bumper for the demo, which is medium movement. I understand they sent yellow and blue for my foot, which is the most movement you can get. I'm hoping the blue works for me. I need maximum lateral movement. I just got retested at the amputee clinic a month ago and got rated a K4. My doctor put in for the Fillauer foot and Kaiser approved it thankfully. If I wasn't playing tennis, I would have gotten the regular All Pro. I agree that the All Pro XTS feels lighter than my present Ossur Pro Flex foot. Which bumper do you use? I am getting this foot in part because of your videos. Thanks so much!!!! @@monoped_adventures
@@rapidfirerob4 I have the yellow bumper in mine. Good luck with your new foot!
Glad you are doing good ! xxx
My people are starting me at the All-Pro XTS. I have been trying really hard to stay active and I think that's my payoff.
I needed to find you so bad! I have crps after a knee surgery on my right leg! I have been having a really hard time staying positive! Thank you and I was hoping I could be in touch with you?
Message me on Instagram under this same name.
Hello thank you for sharing! I have crps and I’m having a hard time.
Sexy stump
How do you find the ride with the LT tires compared to stock (city roads, highway, offroad)? Im having the same debate from 265/70/17 SL tires vs 275/70/17 LT (E rated) tires. And its about 10-12 lbs more weight per tire.
They do ride rougher on the highway, and there is some power loss with the wieght, but they are holding up really well for all the abuse I've put them through off road, especially in the sharp, broken rocks on many higher trails around here.
After years of Ossur. I got my Allpro xts yesterday and it’s a huge difference!
U look awesome with your stump! I'd love to be an amputee
No you would not. It's not fun. We do what we need to do.
Being an amputee is nothing to joke about,amputees get a second chance to live daily activities as normal as possible but it is very difficult and painful,I’ve been an amputee for 11yrs and I’m still having difficulties adjusting to my new life,I used to be very active physically not as much anymore,besides the equipment is very expensive with or without health insurance,don’t wish for something that could make your life miserable,good luck on your life.
Hello brov I want talk with you my leg purpose. And you want see my leg please .
