The Biggest Advancement in Hip Sockets, Since the Bikini Socket.
In our continued evolution of great socket designs, we’ve improved the best hip socket design around. The new Hammock Casting Stand improves how the Bikini Socket is fit, giving even greater functional and comfort outcomes. This new design captures high resolution anatomical contouring through integrating a fabric hammock mesh into the casting process, giving equal weight distribution through the entire socket, and eliminating point specific ischial loading. The casting shape becomes the final socket shape. It’s that simple.

Testimonials
“We had our first fitting today using the Iliac Crest Stabilizers…fantastic. The patient was almost in tears – he can’t believe how the socket is going to change his life so much. “Freedom of movement”… “so light”…. “fantastic” were just some of the words he used. Once again well done…great idea…we applaud you.”

“I have just come back from my prosthetist after having a [hip disarticulation] test socket fabricated and tried it out with the Illiac Crest Stabilizers. Even though it was just a test socket, it was fantastic. As soon as I started to ratchet the stabilizers up, I could feel them pulling me down and into the minimal socket and literally within 3 strides it felt perfect. Absolutely no pistoning and it felt very secure. It felt like a part of me rather than a unwieldy lump hanging off my waist. Even though I say so myself I am amazed how good my walking is for a Hip Disartic. I will spread the word amongst my HD peers as it really deserves to be ‘out there’ and being used. Based on my experience thus far it should become the standard design rather than the ‘bucket’, which should be consigned to the history books.Great design and idea well done! From a very thankful and now much less restricted HD amp,”

“My name is Kenny Capritto and I’m a Prosthetist in Louisiana. I have a Hip Disarticulation patient who uses a C-leg, Helix hip and a traditional socket fabricated by Otto Bock of a flexible type of resin. He has been utilizing this combination for approximately 3 years and now wants to “streamline” his leg… The Bikini of Hip socket system looks amazing. HD patients around the world should send you a thank you card for developing something as an alternative to ‘buckets.”

“It’s really responsive. Before I couldn’t bend over and lock my elbow with the [traditional] figure 8 harness since it would ride up. This new Vest Harness also helps your posture, instead of being pulled forward like what I used to have. For a body-powered this is awesome! I think it’s 100% better than the old figure 8 harness, for sure.”
