Those are so cool though like the STABILITY and the fact that you can RENT THEM like wow. Really really interesting design. I'm in love with people making mobility aids and accessibility like actually useful and thoughtful and not just an afterthough of "oh sometimes some people need something so we'll slap two sticks together and they can hop" like this is design actually consulting with the people who would be using it. Makes my heart happy
My sister just busted her knee, and I was looking into getting a crutch that was not the typical kind. Saw these on Amazon ( significantly more expensive than other products other there) but I liked the idea of having the entire forearm to move. This video helped me understand how to explain it to her when we get it. Thank you.
I just received my M+D crutches, ( I’m moving from the arm crutches) and after watching your videos I will feel more comfortable using M+D crutches. Thanks so much for making these videos.
From what I can see on the website and from you talking about them, the standard "ice pic tip" doesn't seem to work on them. And having those rolling tips will work really good, unless you are walking on ice and snow. It should in my opinion as someone who lives in a colder climate be put on the cons list. Maybe the company has something accessorise that comes with but in that case why not have that as one of the selling points. Otherwise they seems like really good crutches.
Thank you so much My sister broke her ankle and i am trying to find the most comfortable crutches for her , i searched and found this product . Thanks again for the informarive explanation and keep on the great work 😁👍🏼💙🌸🌸🌸
I wish there was a place to try these as they seem pretty interesting. I just went for some basic ones with a soft silicone pad thing for my hand and all my hand/wrist pain went away pretty quickly. Well over a year later only thing I've had to change is the bottom rubber bit because it just got so worn down and add ice spikes in winter because ice and crutches without ice spikes are not a fun combo. Even better is ice spikes plus those little non slip things for shoes with spikes on them along with the ones on my crutches for like two layers of hopefully not gonna fall down.
Would be great if the company ever responded to emails..... I would purchase a pair of two, but can't get an answer as to when any replacement parts will be restocked. I don't want to spend a lot of money, and then have no possible replacement parts..... And EVERYTHING is out of stock on the website except full pairs....
Hi I'm looking for advice my partner has multiple sclerosis and I don't know weather to buy her the m&d crutches or the smart crutches could anyone recommend thanks much appreciated
We have many people who just use one crutch as an alternative for a cane! Check it out here: www.mobilitydesigned.com/product/md-crutch-cane-alternative/
Ohhhhhhh. The entire time, I thought you were saying, "Four-arm crutches." And your motion was indicating that there are four points where the weight is being distributed (both elbows, both wrists). And somehow the last time you said the word, it clicked. And I felt silly. Because duh.
@@sarah_chalk Yeah, it clicked for me the last time he used the word. Brain like a snail, this one. But what's life without having a laugh at yourself every so often, eh?
@@6000countingdown I am rereading your comment again, and I now realize that I 100% misread it every time before; I sincerely apologize!!!!! If anyone’s brain is like snail here, it is clearly mine! Your ‘four points of contact’ explanation is actually quite genius! And something that I don’t think I’ve ever given any thought to, as a forearm crutch user myself! Outside the box, yet extraordinarily sound - the world needs more of that! Again, I apologize for misreading!
I use crutches as my main mobility apparatus, (RAKA 35 y) or I hop on one leg. I have smart crutches, they too can be put in 90 degrees mode but I use them full down, its still 30 degrees, so it alleviates some pressure off my wrists and they are comfortable. They look good on the website and are not that cheap but are not quality that you should expect. Either way, they are better than anything I can find available in my country (Croatia) you say that we live in crutches renaissance, please send me some link or manufacturer that I can buy in Europe. MD crutches are not for me, I need some durable stuff. that 90 degree is just too much. Add me on Twitter @RutKuv you cool, we can be friends.
as an Industrial Designer, I love the thorough explanations and reviews. :o
Thanks Max!

Ok we need to get this person known so they can truly help people with disabilities i am not disabled but I still found this video fascinating
Yeah! Let’s get him known!
Your bookshelf is so aesthetically pleasing
I have no idea why I watched this video after not watching you for years. Still as good of a dude as he always was
Hey thanks for that
@@JoshSundquist no problem, keep being yourself!

We love to see this, Wendy! Thanks for sharing :)
I've been curious about these - glad to see you gave them a try! BTW, love the longer hair 😀

Definitely! I was thinking the same thing, that the shape doesn't seem like it would work with my ice spikes
Thank you so much

Love your Henley. Also, great review.

Long hair looks good on you! I have no need for crutches *knocks on wood* but watched this review with great interest anyway.
Your hair is so beautiful dude! 😍
These would be good for people with rheumatoid arthritis that have wrist and hand arthritis
Amazing explanation you definitely have my 👍👍👍👍👍
Hello I love all your videos me my friends and my mom laugh at you videos keep up the good work you inspire me and my mom.
Are we all just playing it cool about the life size Groot next to him during the entire video? Okay, I'm cool, I'm cool.
Hey Josh, have you been involved with or looked into the Med Beds (or pods)?
Thx
I don’t use crutches but these look pretty nice
This might be weird but for Halloween 2021 you should be Loki with his leg cut or ripped off

Great video !
Can u tell the story about the movie theater and the 2 liter please
Hey, I hope not to be inappropriate or rude, but... was wondering, how are you? After the surgery I mean... hope you are feeling better!!
Hello
Hi Josh!!!
Do you feel more balanced now than when you were younger in the olympics
Definitely
so wait question, on the amputated side. do you still have your pelvis? like how much of the leg/pelvis/hip did they remove when you got it amputated
Hi I'm looking for advice my partner has multiple sclerosis and I don't know weather to buy her the m&d crutches or the smart crutches could anyone recommend thanks much appreciated
I hope I never have to use crutches, but if I do I'll keep this in mind.
Hi👋 here from your TikTok
I wonder how this would work if you’re looking to take a step up from a cane.

They are actually “Forearm” Crutches, as the cuffs, which are the leverage point, are on your forearms 😊

@@sarah_chalk No worries. It's validating to have others to share the experience. I'm not alone!

I bet you won’t reply to this comment
This feels like an ad more than a review. Nothing negative discussed and fun “establishing” shots at the end.
See pro/con list in video description. I wasn’t paid for this.
Talking so fast!
