Tucane ® “Your Third Hip” is an advanced walking assistant that emulates a hip. It is a new innovative
concept that substitutes conventional canes. The Tucane ® advanced cane system assists the user to walk in
a correct, straight and comfortable way, reducing and avoiding back pain caused by incorrect posture.
When the user walks, Tucane ® moves forward with your leg with the use of the springs located in the grip
handle of the device. The user can adjust Tucane ® to its exact height.
The Tucane ® shoe tip will automatically adjust while the user walks, simulating the ankle’s joint. The tip is
made of a special anti-slip rubber, and a patented design with shock absorbers designed to absorb impact
and vibration with the ground.
The Tucane ® soft-rubber handle and shock-absorbing design reduces the impact of the different anatomi-
cal structures of the hand, elbow, and shoulder, while preventing inflammation of the joints.
Tucane® not only is the most advanced cane system available on the market, but it is also the most innova-
tive aesthetic design in the cane industry.

Tucane® comes in three sizes; Small, Medium, and Large.Please choose your
specific Tucane® according to your height. To adjust the height of the Tucane®, a
ring and secure button are located on the lower shaft of the cane.
Loosen the ring by rotating it counter-clockwise, and then press the button to
extend or shorten the cane to the desired height, as seen in the picture. The
cane’s handle must reach the hip. Once set, please release the button to the
closest hole and turn the ring clockwise to close.
Please observe that the handle has an anatomic profile for the user’s comfort. On
the grip’s top, there is a special hump that is designed for the user’s handgrip. The
bottom of the grip also has two grooves for the fingers.
