125. The Knee Brace That Could Help You Ski Longer Without Surgery

On this episode I sit down with Dave Johnson from Icarus Medical to talk about a new kind of knee brace designed to unload the knee, reduce pain, and help active people stay in the sports they love longer. If knee pain, fatigue, or arthritis has made you wonder whether your ski days are numbered, this conversation opens up a very interesting option before jumping straight to surgery.


We talk about:✅ Dave’s personal story of knee injury, failed surgery, and why he set out to build a better brace✅ How this brace helps offload the knee by assisting the quads and reducing force through the joint✅ Why this may be especially helpful for skiers dealing with patellofemoral pain, arthritis, or ACL deficiency✅ How the brace compares to other systems like Ski Mojo✅ Why delaying surgery can matter so much for younger and active skiers✅ How the brace is fitted, adjusted, and even covered by insurance for many people.


If you are trying to keep skiing despite knee pain, fatigue, or arthritis, this episode will give you another option to consider before deciding your only path forward is surgery.
