Sizes
Multiple height and calf options allow Monster Legs to be configured for different performers while maintaining balance and silhouette.
| Option | Knee-to-Ankle | Typical Height |
|---|---|---|
| Short | 350mm – 420mm | Approx. 5′3″ – 5′10″ |
| Tall | 420mm – 500mm | Approx. 5′10″ – 6′3″ |
| Size | Circumference |
|---|---|
| Small | 330mm – 380mm |
| Medium | 380mm – 440mm |
| Large | 440mm – 510mm |
All calf sizes can be used with either height option.
Monster Legs are built for performers and productions that need a stronger digitigrade suspension system with adjustable balance, durable construction and repeat-use reliability.
User Adjustments
Designed to be tuned for user balance, angle preference and suspension response in controlled environments.
Monster Legs feature three different height settings dictated by where the foot plate is bolted at the terminating point of the lower stilt limb.
As each user has a unique centre of balance, the cable system is fine-tunable to counteract this and ensure stability during use.
Two foot angle options are available. The lower setting brings the heel closer to the floor and positions the foot more horizontally. The higher setting raises the heel away from the floor and positions the foot more vertically. Adjustment depends on user preference and intended application.
All suspension fittings can be calibrated by the user to suit individual preference and body weight.
Weight
Built for robust performance while remaining manageable for professional performers and repeated use.
