Product Description

Össur Cheetah Knee – Running Prosthetic Knee
High-Performance Sports Knee for Elite Mobility
Expertly Fitted & Trained at Credence Prosthetic India

The Össur Cheetah Knee is a specialized high-performance prosthetic knee joint designed specifically for running, sprinting, and athletic activities for above-knee (AK) and transfemoral amputees. Engineered to meet the extreme demands of competitive and recreational sports, the Cheetah Knee enables amputee athletes to achieve speed, control, and confidence during high-impact, high-cadence movement.

Purpose-built for athletics, the Össur Cheetah Knee is optimized to work seamlessly with running blades such as the Össur Flex-Run™ or Cheetah® feet, delivering a responsive and fluid running motion. Its design prioritizes fast swing dynamics, secure stance stability during loading, and efficient energy transfer, allowing athletes to accelerate, decelerate, and maintain rhythm with precision. Unlike everyday walking knees, the Cheetah Knee is tuned for dynamic motion and rapid cadence changes, making it ideal for track running, training drills, and competitive sports environments.

The knee’s robust construction ensures durability under repeated high-impact forces, while its lightweight design minimizes rotational inertia, helping athletes maintain speed and reduce fatigue. The Cheetah Knee supports a natural running pattern by allowing controlled knee flexion and extension that aligns with athletic biomechanics rather than conventional gait mechanics.

At Credence Prosthetic India, fitting a running knee like the Össur Cheetah Knee goes beyond standard prosthetic alignment. Our clinicians follow a sports-specific fitting and performance protocol, which includes:

Activity-specific alignment for running mechanics

Integration with high-performance carbon fiber running blades

Load testing and dynamic alignment

Running posture and technique optimization

Athlete-focused gait and performance training
