Chester,

I don't know whatcha call it, but I don't like it.  It's hard plastic,
molded to my leg shape and it articulates (flexes) at the ankle.  It's
supposed to keep the equinus in check and keep my toes up so they don't
catch on the floor when I swing my foot forward.  It's not made very well
(in my opinion) and set me back about $3K. I had it made after I popped my
achilles during paralympic training.  I'll use it for a while, cuss it for a
while and put in in the corner until I get tired of tripping.  In the summer
it's hotter than my first girlfriend.

Dear Kyle,

     What kind of AFO is that?  Mine is a free flex.
