ACCESSORIES
REVOLUTION TIPS
Walking with crutches can be a ‘pain in the shoulder’! When you place regular tips on firm ground and swing through, your shoulders can’t rotate. This tip assembly has solved the problem by allowing the Tornado Tip to remain securely planted on the ground, while the shaft that connects to your SideStix can freely rotate – INSIDE the rubber tip. This free-rotation helps prevent fatigue and injury. It also allows the rubber to last longer and wear evenly, no more ‘rock-over’ wear pattern! |
SANDSHOE ASSEMBLY
Providing stability and traction on a variety of surfaces, the sandshoe is our most flexible attachment. Perfect for the beach, muddy root covered trails, or even crusty snow. The 4″ diameter Sandshoe is made of high quality aircraft aluminium and super-durable PVC coated polyester mesh. SideStix Ice Spindles included. |
SNOWSHOE ASSEMBLY
Providing traction and float in fresh snow, these 8″ diameter snowshoes are made from powder coated aircraft aluminum. The decking is made of super-durable PVC coated polyester mesh. SideStix Ice Spindles included. |
GRIP CAPS
These ABS plastic Cleat Caps allow you to safely travel across slippery surfaces such as wet wood, ice and packed snow. 8 hardened steel studs (per cap) provide great grip on streets or trails. The Caps are compatible with TORNADO TIPS (which are included with the REVOLUTION TIPS) and can be quickly pressed on when needed and easily popped off (using your Allen key in the side-hole) when you’re ready to go indoors. |
SANDSHOE DECKS
Sandshoe decks can be purchased separately from an assembly so that if you already own snowshoes, you can add sandshoe capability for less cost than ordering two complete assemblies. |
SNOWSHOE DECKS
Snowshoe decks can be purchased separately from an assembly so that if you already own sandshoes, you can add snowshoe capability for less cost than ordering two complete assemblies. |
ICE SPINDLES
The SideStix Ice Spindle/Ice Picks come standard with sandshoe/snowshoe assemblies. They come with non-slip Vibram soles and removable 1/4 inch stainless steel centre spikes. The Ice Spindles are compatible with both the sandshoe deck and the snowshoe deck. |
FINGRIPS® (New)
These patented, shock absorbing grips provide unprecedented protection and comfort directly under the hands – where it’s needed the most. Based on research and user input, the FinGrips® are orthotics for your hands! Note: for large hands (9 inches or larger, when measuring from tip of thumb to tip of pinky finger, across outstretched hand) the FinGrips® may feel a little small. The hand-stitched FinGrip® grip covers can be added, to make the grips bigger. |
BIOKORK™ GRIPS
Included with all SideStix™ to provide ultimate ergonomics and comfort for the hand. Anti-bacterial and hypoallergenic, cork makes an ideal grip material. During use, the cork surface naturally wears away resulting in an average grip life of 6-9 months. Sizing Guide: Measure across your outstretched hand – from tip of thumb to tip of pinky finger. If the measurement is 8″ or below, then SMALL is probably preferred. If the measurement is above 8″, then LARGE may be best. |
ADJUSTABLE CUFFS
Side opening cuffs provide the most frontal support and offer the advantage of staying safely on your arms when reaching up to get something. Front opening cuffs provide a good combination of lateral support and easy access. ¾ cuffs provide the most freedom and are generally preferred by those who take their SideStix™ off and put them down, between movements. These cuffs come with a removable / adjustable strap. |
FINGRIPS® COVERS
SideStix FinGrips covers are made from SPENCO neoprene and covered with four-way stretch nylon. These light-weight, washable covers provide excellent cushioning, and make the grip diameter larger which may be more suitable for large hands. They are hand stitched by Salt Spring Footprints, manufacturers of custom orthotics and are compatible with Fingrips. |
BIOKORK GRIP COVERS
SideStix grip covers are made from SPENCO neoprene and covered with four-way stretch nylon. These light-weight, washable covers provide excellent cushioning. They are hand stitched by Salt Spring Footprints, manufacturers of custom orthotics and are compatible with Ergon grips. The grip cover size should match your grip size. Please call or email us if you are unsure which grip size you have. Generally, if the distance from tip of pinky to tip of thumb is greater than 8”, then you should be using large grips. |
KIT BAG
The SideStix Kit bag provides an excellent way to store and transport your Stix while they aren’t in use. Made from durable Nylon, the kit bag is perfect for travelling and storage. Please note: kit bags are included with all orders of SideStix Boundless and SideStix Discovery. |
ROTATING FEET – REPLACEMENTS
The Replacement Rotating Tips are made from a composite of Vibram outsole & EVA backing. They come complete with machined Delrin base – ready to screw in to your Rotating Feet assemblies. They are available as replacements parts when your original SideStix tip soles wear out. Only compatible with the Articulating/Rotating Foot Assembly. |
TORNADO TIPS
Fetterman Tornado Tips last on average 3x longer than any competitors’ and provide articulation even on very steep terrain. SideStix Forearm Crutches come standard with Tornado Tips. |
