Custom knee brace - post ACL rebuild

What’s up icecoast homies. On my comeback from ACL reconstruction and meniscectomy back in Jan. On track to be on snow in Dec. My surgeon is suggesting i ski in a brace for a transitional period.

I met with the practice’s brace guy today and just was not
impressed. He didn’t seem to have any clue about skiing or mountain biking (the only things I care about) and kept referencing football players and what he puts them in. I didn’t think he was particularly knowledgeable and was just pushing some off the shelf BS without training by to understand my goals, or my use case.

I see LV and other worldcup athletes in Donjoy but also see many moto and mtb pros in Ossur CTi.

Can anyone refer me to the best knee brace person - ideally in tri state area, south western CT or NYC would be ideal. Appreciate any feedback here.

Thank you!
