  • Publication number: 20150223964
    Abstract: A new and useful device for assisting and training the hyperextension of plantar flexion of the ankle which can be operated by a single user, is easy to use, allows for variable adjustment of the angle of plantar flexion, is handheld, and can be used in a variety of applications and physical disciplines. This device is believed to be useful in the athletic and physical arts disciplines such as ballet. The device comprises a handle that is rotationally connected to a plantar attachment by way of a central axis rod. When connected together, the plantar attachment rotates around the central axis rod, thereby creating angles relative to the handle. The device can be locked into a desired angle by the insertion of a locking pin prior to use. The user places her foot on the sole portion of the plantar attachment, fixes an attaching means around her foot, and places her heel into a calcaneal well on the handle.
