The Ankle Roll Guard Story
Christopher Dean, Ankle Roll Guard’s Inventor:
“Over the past 20 years, I’ve probably sprained each ankle over a dozen times, mostly from “rolling” it while playing basketball. So in 2006 I came up with the idea to prevent or limit the rolling action with the patented Ankle Roll Guard (U.S. Patent No. 7,849,611 issued in 2010). I wear my Ankle Roll Guards every time I play basketball (2-3 times/week) and I always get acknowledgements from other players on what a great idea it is to prevent ankle rolls without needing an ankle brace. I’ve worn them for over 5 years now and have yet to sprain my ankle (I prevented at least a half dozen sprains). I also developed the Ankle Roll Guard to be very light-weight so you don’t notice the product at all while you’re playing a sport or doing daily activities. The simple concept is to stop or cushion the ankle from a complete roll to the floor where major injuries can occur. My hope is that the Ankle Roll Guard will give you peace of mind, stability, and balance while dealing with an ankle injury or neuromuscular issue or playing your favorite sport!”
