Once a healthy, well-trained surgeon, now using a walker for daily activities
Magnus Legert is a former elite tennis player who worked as an orthopaedic surgeon. Life, however, took an unexpected turn. From being a healthy 50-year-old, he now lives with ataxia and is highly dependent on a walker. Rehab is an important part of Magnus' everyday life and without good assistive devices, this wouldn't be possible. Here, he shares his story in the hope of helping more people achieve freedom of movement.

86-year-old veteran climbs Pen y Fan with a walker
Ian Waddell, who turned 86 on March 4, 2024, has severe osteoarthritis and can't walk without two crutches or his walker. "The cardiologist team told me the closest I should ever get to a mountain is looking at a picture of it," he said. But I told them, 'Well, I am doing it anyway.'" As a veteran or former Parachute Regiment Soldier, Ian loves the outdoors and doesn't want to become a person who stays at home and watches TV all day because of his condition.

After the coma: Kenny Noyes aims for the half marathon in Barcelona
During a race weekend in July 2015, the professional motorcycle racer Kenny Noyes had a nasty crash that almost killed him. He suffered a traumatic brain injury and was in a coma for over a month – but fortunately, woke up. For the past 8 years he has been working daily and lately he has been improving with the help of the Trionic Veloped. Next year he plans to compete with it in the half marathon of Barcelona.

    I am 86-year-old and weigh 58 kg.
    The device looks good (to be envious), is well thought out and easy to assemble. What struck me:
