there really are lots of different types of legs! just have to research a bit and see whats out there.

I wish i had one specific for running or for biking but right now i just have a general one that i can do basically everything with (just not specialized to it). Its mostly because im still growing and specialized legs can get expensive so its best to not commit before you're done growing since you'll just outgrow it... lol

oh well, i suppose I could wait a few more years or maybe find some used ones. lol

I plan to get a swimming and maybe running leg eventually. I love to go to the lake and do the inner tube on the back of the boat. This summer I'll probably just go w/o a leg to swim. We go to the beach so I guess I'll just take crutches to get in the water. I'll figure it out when I get there. :)

i have a running leg. and love it to death. i also have a swimming leg they customized out of one of my old legs.

swimming legs are super cool! but i just swim without a leg. Its a little awkward at first but it gets better. just take crutches to the water if you have to, i'm sure you'll figure it out and be just fine :)

Thanks for sharing all. For me, I wouldn't be able to use crutches to the water because I'll be a double bk amputee. The swimming legs will also be good for rehab - walking in the water waist deep to take some of the weight off. I have a small pool in my back yard (6'x10') and swim front crawl with a tether. It it insulated on sides and insulated lid, so I can swim year round. Maybe I can post a photo of it somewhere on this site? I have mild arthritis in the medial sides of my knees, so I shouldn't be running, but may want golfing legs (they allow twisting at the knee). All these legs is going to cost a lot of money!

I posted photos of my small year round pool, and me swimming in the snow on my profile page.
