Pilot Project
Private I. A. D. Chathuranga, who lost his left leg below the knee during a military operation, was chosen by us to try out the product for our pilot project. The reason we chose Chaturanga is due to the fact that he had already used two prosthetic legs and he’s a member of the Regiment’s athletic team. With his life style and career as an Army athlete we knew Chaturanga will be pushing the prosthetic leg to its limits. According to Chaturanga’s past experience with two other types of prosthetic legs, he is very satisfied with the flexibility and the ease provided by the Live Flex artificial limb and recommends this product as superior to other prosthetic legs available in the market.
