Back on my snowboard
As I got older, my knees started to show the decades of wear and tear, to the point that I stopped snowboarding for fear of a major injury. Even just awkwardly getting off a ladder last year caused a knee issue that wasn't from intense activity. So at that point, I had no confidence in my knees haha. I learned about the Ascender brace and the fact that I could dial the resistance up and physically take weight off my knee. It's been so effective that I was back on my board last season, and I wasn't in my head the entire time worried something was going to happen and cause a major injury. I've just been so impressed with Icarus, their team, and my brace that I tell everyone about them. Now back to the slopes!
