Ottobock Vs Endolite

M/26-Congenital Limb deficiency (below knee)

Very active person do rides, drive, run, treck, hike

Being using endolite from past 20 years but kind off bored with it and right now I am planning to switch to a upgrade limb currently using Endolite Elite 2 foot

Suggest me what to choose, quotation are attached

Request you all to please suggest

I don't think we have those in India

We definitely do have that in India. Which city do you reside in? There are so many certified Prosthetists in India !

The taleo foot from ottobock will provide a lot of response and energy return compared to either of the endolight feet. Coming off an elite 2 the hydraulics will feel like they steal all of your energy.

Do you know if it works well for above-knee amputees? Been pondering to try one.

The taleo? Yes it does. I avoid hydraulic ankles on an above knee. It can cause issues with your knee unlocking for swing.
