Underarm pads sit in the armpit. Forearm crutches move the support to a cuff below the elbow so the hands and forearms take the load. The Nova Forearm Crutches are a 300 lb aluminum pair with a plastic grip. Choose Adult or Youth. Full measurements are in the spec table below.
The cuff sits on the forearm. These are not axillary crutches. Choose them when a clinician wants Lofstrand-style support instead of underarm pads.
The shaft is aluminum. The grip on this listing is plastic, not the anatomical TPR handle on the 7740 family. Adult 7710P unit weight is 3.95 lb.
Adult 7710P user height is 4'11"-6'0". Youth 7711P user height is 4'5"-5'5". Those rows are not interchangeable. The Adult overview text also mentions 5'3"-6'2", which conflicts with the spec table, so this page uses the spec table.
This pair is for someone who needs forearm cuffs at 300 lb and fits Adult or Youth on this page.
Compare the anatomical-grip Nova pair if they want the contoured TPR handle. That pair is 250 lb, not 300 lb.
The cuff is the difference. Height and grip still have to match.
Trade-off: you get forearm cuffs and a 300 lb aluminum pair. You give up underarm pads, a 500 lb steel frame, and the anatomical handle.
