The flamingo is a new kind of walking aid for the recovery time after a foot or ankle injury. The innovation here is that hands are free while moving. Compared to crutches, the flamingo increases the mobility, protects the injury significantly better and allows a comfortable and ergonomically correct posture during the use.
