The practice of sports has always been possible for a tibial amputee with a prosthesis. Thanks to new prosthesis techniques and the use of new materials the prothesis-equipped amputee practicing a sport will be able to feel more comfortable in his prothesis, to increase his safety and improve his sporting performance. Thanks to the help of tibial amputees, all of them high performers, we were given the opportunity, during the preparation of the 1992 Paraolympic Winter Games, to test, adapt and improve the applications of these new techniques.
