Sharing Some Feedback on the Motivator Grip Multiple Thumb Positions
When we introduced the Motivator grip last Summer, one of the key features we highlighted was having two thumb positions. Each position provides ergonomic advantages – one gives you a stable hold and balance while the other reduces stress on hands and wrists and improves proprioception and stability.
While that is just one feature that makes the grip one-of-a-kind, we are extremely pleased by the amount of feedback we’ve received on having the option of either position, depending on need during a walk. In fact, one reviewer pointed out that they actually alternate thumb positions during a walk purely to help with arthritis.
We could not be happier with the response and that so many find the Motivator grip so beneficial. Thank you all for the support and the feedback, and remember…Let’s Get Out There!
I love my new foldable walking poles. They are so convenient to use when out hiking. Recently brought them with me to the Berkshires; they made trekking through the snow so easy!
Don't get me wrong they're useful. They help the crutches stand up and be less likely to tip. But honestly thats all the praise I can give them. The main issue I have is that the to top magnets piece are not long enough to extend past the crutch cuff. This results in the magnets not being able to fully make contact SIGNIFICANTLY reducing their ability to stick together. The advertisements are more tame here on smart crutchs than geckos own site but you cannot carry one and support the other because without the magnets making that full contact they aren't strong enough to support the weight. Additionally (not smart crutches fault) the wrist straps gecko sells are not long enough to reach your wrists even on the smallest forearm setting, which I use. I use them every day, but I wish they were better.
