The "Free-Release.com" golf shoe with rotatable sole

United Golfers Corp. can help with their new golf-shoe: “Free-release.com” which shifts the joint-strain onto the sole.

New York, USA / Birkenfeld Germany

United Golfers Corp. has developed a revolutionary golf shoe which shifts the joint-strain onto the sole through the use of a patented swivel joint. This is good news for approx. 20% of the sportsmen who are passionate about golfing but suffer from arthritis and synovitis.

“Our shoe makes golf a healthy sport” says Dr. Thomas Haerle, a member of the United Golfers Corp. New York, USA and Birkenfeld, Germany management team, “golf supports not only the cardiovascular system but also contributes to the mental fitness for golfers of all ages.” Dr. Haerle says that golf – the most beautiful minor matter in the world – burdens the joints with heavy strain: “In the course of scientific research, we measured the strain on a PGA golf-instructor with a body- weight of 78 kg and found that the foot alone with its 26 joints had been impacted with shearing forces of up to 8 tons. Also the strain on the subjects’ ankle joints reached forces of up to 530 Nm. We measured strain of 85 Nm on the knee and 270 Nm on the hip. By using our “Free-Release.com” golf shoe we were able to reduce this strain by up to 99%. There is a further positive side-effect: The swing is executed with a substantially better balance of the vertical and horizontal body axis due to the special golf shoe. So the spine, as the vertical rotary axis is distorted far less than during a conventional swing.”

“The function of the knee-joint is transferred to the sole. This is the solution. By extending the rotary axis of the rotary foot by the length of the entire shank, we shift the joint- strain onto the simultaneously rotating shoe sole” says Frank Drollinger who developed this shoe for his damaged ankle- and knee-joints in co-operation with his wife Andrea. The shoe is already internationally patented.
An enthusiastic customer comments: “In the past each swing I made felt like I was being struck by lightning, the “Free-Release.com”- shoe has now given me the freedom to play again”. Thanks to United Golfers, this customer is able to play golf without pain and enjoy the game again. The company recommends: “This customer can now play golf in a way that is healthier and without pain, hence the “Free-Release.com”- shoe is recommended to all golfers suffering from arthrosis for prevention and therapy.”

The “wonder” shoe not only protects against arthrosis- related disorders but also reduces the strain on ligaments, tendons and nerve tracts. “The principle of transferring joint- and ligament-strain will be archieved” says Frank Drollinger. “Health has top-priority in sport and the golfer who wears our shoe will stand much more stabile during the entire swing compared to conventional shoe- soles. This balance of the vertical and horizontal body-axis is a basic element of a healthy swing.”

Problems during the swing arise from the fact that the knee-joint is unable to rotate under strain for biomechanical reasons. Thus, a weight-shift had so far been necessary for the back-swing. The Free- Release.com golf shoe supersedes this motional task because the biomechanical function of the knee-joint is transferred to the mechanical swivel joint on the sole. Apart from that, the swing with the Free- Release.com golf shoe is no different to the swing made with conventional golf shoes.

“We are able to help millions of golfers who suffer from arthrosis, gout, rheumatism, intervertebral disc degeneration, damaged joints and ligament- disorders. Even the healthy golfer should wear our shoe for prophylactic reasons. Children in particular should be equipped with our shoe right from the start, because golfers of all ages, however healthy benefit from the positive effects of the Free-Release.com golf shoe. Health problems relating to joints, intervertebral discs, ligaments and tendons, also affecting long standing tour-players like e.g. Tiger Woods, Sergio Garcia, Bernhard Langer and Mark McNulty can be avoided from the outset.

For this reason we have declared the “Free-Release.com” golf shoe to be the most important “golf club” in the golf bag.” states Frank Drollinger.
