Vari-Flex® with EVO™
For 25 years, Flex-Foot® has been the foot of choice for prosthetists and amputees alike and with the new Vari-Flex with EVO, the evolution continues.
The Vari-Flex with EVO provides a unique combination of comfort and dynamics, and is designed to make life easier – for everyone.
For prosthetists, the Vari-Flex with EVO is lightweight, easy to assemble, easy to align, and has a slender profile which makes it easy to cosmetically cover.
For amputees, this is the ideal foot for any activity. Whether it’s going on long walks, shopping or just being at home, the Vari-Flex with EVO offers the most natural roll-over available, ensuring the highest level of confidence and security.
The new EVO feature enables amputees to experience natural gait progression by utilizing the foot plate to its fullest potential. A more natural gait reduces fatigue and puts less strain on the lower back and sound side.
Vari-Flex with EVO enables amputees to walk more comfortably, better and for longer.
The groundbreaking EVO Feature
The EVO (Energy Vector Optimization) feature is generated by maximizing how the ground reaction force is transferred into the prosthetic foot. Each step is then optimized through the magnitude, placement and direction of the foot. By maximizing the ground reaction force the amputee is able to develop the most natural gait progression possible which reduces fatigue and puts less pressure on the sound side.
The EVO feature provides:
- Fluent roll-over which mimics natural gait progression
- Reduced fatigue
- Effortless control of the ankle during stance phase
- Less sensitivity to alignment
- Less pressure on the sound side
- Less pressure on the lower back
