The fit of the socket is absolutely the most important thing about a prosthesis. If it doesn't fit,as yours certainly does fit, you won't wear it, or you will be too sore to do anything. Weight is important. If it weighs a ton, your stump will be sore, and you won't want to do anything on a sore stump. I wear a pegleg much of the time, as it's really useful for operating pedals on machinery. I have got used to it, and walk well on it, but it takes significantly more energy from me to go from point "A" to point "B" than the carbon fibre foot. I consider it my built in exercise programme. For me, the look is important. Since I'm not going to fool anybody with a cosmesis, I like the techno look, the black graphite and titanium. I think it's more dignified than a pathetic attempt to appear as though I have two legs. It says, to me, "This is me, and I'm OK".

For me it's the socket fit. If my socket doesn't fit well it doesn't matter that I use a C-leg, I might as well be using a rusty hinge as a knee. If my socket doesn't fit right my whole day is out the window.

I think for me the socket is the most important thing, then comes the alignment of the foot, If these two factors are hit dead on I think I could walk well on the cheapest foot there is, if the socket doesn't fit not even the best foot will help me:)

I just got a new socket and the fit is great! It is attaches with a negative pressure system . I can do fine on snow, rough terrain and I have had no problems. It is uncomplicated - the socket is plastic, not unlike tupperware; then a swivel,shockabsorber and diaphragm pump in one unit; then the shaft and foot. I think this will work! With this kind for fit and attachment system, the weight is not so noticable. Time will tell......
