MS Hiker's Story

This passionate hiker was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, which caused foot drop that made hiking increasingly difficult and dangerous.

After being fitted with a TripleFlex system, hiking became possible again. The TripleFlex helps greatly with foot drop and keeps the toe from catching on rocks and roots, which can lead to a fall.

The device provides lift to the affected leg, which allows more freedom of movement. It also gives increased stability, making the hiker feel more secure on the trail — particularly on rougher terrain.

Since starting TripleFlex, this hiker has trekked to Mount St. Helens Volcanic National Monument, the Cascade Range, and the Eagle Cap Wilderness in the Wallowa Mountains — proving that MS does not have to end an active outdoor lifestyle.
