There will always be something in life that tries to hold us back or stop us from being great. But I refuse to EVER let anyone tell me I can’t do something.
Shaun has been an amputee for just over 20 years now, losing my leg at the age of 21.
I want to share my story to help motivate and inspire others.
Thank you Team Össur, your team has been exemplary, professional and attentive. I can’t believe how my life has changed!
Once I put the blade on, I fell in love. I always tell people, when I run, I feel like I have 2 feet again.
There is nothing I can’t do as an amputee.

The ankle motion of the Pro-Flex LP Torsion is amazing, combining both vertical and rotational shock absorption and eliminating vertical shock and rotational shear.
The Össur Direct Socket has meant I can challenge myself without the fear of blisters from rubbing.
I find I’m less fatigued on slopes and ramps as this foot adjusts to accommodate the surface angles and makes it more comfortable for me to walk on.
I feel confident walking on my Pro-Flex LP Torsion feet, and I am not afraid to tackle anything that comes my way.

I am unstoppable! It gives me confidence, performance and comfort I never had before.
I try to show everybody that disability is not a handicap. You can still do anything you want in life.
My prosthesis has always been part of me and makes every hurdle conquerable. For me, sprinting is like art, because the work is in the detail.
The Re-flex Shock was the first leg that I didn't ask to have a sleeve to be put over the leg, as I felt like I wanted to show it off.
I received my first Össur Flex-Run (running foot) which helped me learn techniques and skills taught from some of the best coaches in Australia.
About 6 months ago I changed over from a hydraulic knee unit to the PASO Knee
I had the privilege of attending the first ever Mobility Clinic on the Snow in August 2019.
The RHEO KNEE and Pro-Flex foot combination inspire confidence to tackle awkward/difficult situations.
What is hard to convey in writing is the amazing impact the clinic had on us all.
I was lucky enough to test out a pair of Cheetah Xceed running blades.
