Did you know that on March 18, 1965, Soviet cosmonaut Alexei Leonov made history by becoming the first human to perform a spacewalk. Wearing his spacesuit, Leonov exited the Voskhod 2 spacecraft through an inflatable external airlock. During this exhilarating moment, he floated freely in orbit, tethered to the spacecraft, for approximately 10 minutes. It was a remarkable achievement in the early days of space exploration!
With new efforts by various countries to develop outposts on the Moon, we wonder if walking poles might fit into the picture!!!! Let's Get Out There!
i have CRPS in my leg and need a mobile aid to get around, but i have terrible arthritis in my hands and wrists. using a cane has become impossible because of how much it hurts my hand/wrist, and i can't use a manual wheelchair for the same reason. my smartcrutch has been an absolute lifesaver. being able to adjust the forearm portion to be horizontal takes nearly all the pressure off my hand and wrist. it's not nearly as heavy as i expected it to be either. i am incredibly impressed. i can't imagine ever going back to a cane.
