Cascade Supplier Partner: Product Highlight – WillowWood META® Flow™
Introducing the latest member of the WillowWood META® Family, the META® Flow™! WillowWood’s META® Flow™ is the first PDAC approved L5968 foot that eliminates the trade-off between range of motion and dynamics. The design combines the benefits of the META Unibody® platform with an innovative polycentric ankle featuring a carbon composite ankle spring. The unique design is the only L5968 foot that provides energy during midstance – allowing users to experience best-in-class rollover and freedom from the dampening effect experienced with hydraulic designs.
The end result is a smooth natural gait on various terrains and at varying cadences while reducing the risk of falls through active swing phase dorsiflexion. By eliminating the need for hydraulic fluid, the design ensures freedom from leaks and reduces the need for frequent maintenance.
