Benefits
- Outside shoe design allows user to retain ankle mobility and comfort while still having ankle protection (no ankle restriction like an ankle brace)
- Provides ankle stability and protection for users with chronic lateral ankle instability (weak ankles, frequent rolls)
- Clinical, independent testing at Boise State University (2 white papers published) using a motion analysis system showed equivalent inversion protection plus better range of motion and vertical jump versus a brace or tape
- Will not damage shoes like an ankle brace
- Weighs only 2.4 ounces so you don’t even feel it!
Testing
Independent Testing of the Ankle Roll Guard Completed at Boise State University (January 2018):
“Of all the devices (Ankle Roll Guard, Brace, Tape), only the Ankle Roll Guard appears to allow the user normal ankle motion (i.e. typical anatomical joint motion), while preventing excessive ankle inversion” -– Tyler Brown, PhD, CSCS, Director COBR
Conclusion: The Ankle Roll Guard provides similar prevention of excessive inversion as either the brace or tape, but without the mechanical restriction of the joint that reportedly limits physical performance when wearing ankle prophylactic devices. With the Ankle Roll Guard, participants exhibited more natural ankle motions (i.e. plantar flexion) during both the sudden inversion event and vertical jump. This motion allowed the participants to perform better during the vertical jump with the Ankle Roll Guard as compared to the more restrictive brace and tape.
