Playmaker II Fourcepoint

Knee injuries, especially to the ACL, can stop you in your tracks. The DonJoy Playmaker II Fourcepoint Knee Brace is engineered not just for recovery, but as a proactive tool for prevention, empowering you to move with confidence and reduce the risk of injury or re-injury. It’s designed for those who refuse to be sidelined, allowing you to say: “I can recover. I can train. I can play.”

Why Your Game Needs the DonJoy Playmaker II FourcePoint

The statistics are clear—the risk is real, and protection is crucial. The DonJoy Playmaker II Fourcepoint is built to address these critical facts:

• Women are 2 to 10 times more likely to injure their ACL, highlighting a significant need for targeted protection.
• The risk of a second ACL injury is 15 times greater** in the first 12 months after reconstruction, making re-injury prevention paramount.
• 50% of all ACL injuries occur in young, active individuals** between the ages of 15 and 25.
• The majority (60-80%) of ACL injuries are non-contact**, meaning they happen during cutting, pivoting, or landing, not from a collision.
• The opposing knee is at twice the risk of injury compared to the surgically repaired knee, underscoring the need for bilateral protection.
• Fear of re-injury is a major psychological barrier to returning to play; confidence in your equipment is a key part of the solution.

Engineered for Performance and Protection: FourcePoint Technology

At the heart of the Playmaker II is the revolutionary FourcePoint Technology, a system designed to actively protect your knee by changing how it moves.

• Increases Flexion Angles: This technology minimizes the time your knee spends in the biomechanically “at-risk” position during activity, directly reducing the risk of an ACL injury.
• Improves Joint Mechanics: Whether you are recovering from surgery or protecting a healthy knee, the brace enhances the natural movement of the joint for safer performance.
• Protects Both Knees with One Brace: Clinical studies show that wearing the Playmaker II on one knee leads to a 60% decrease in non-contact ACL injury rates in both knees. This “cross-over” effect means one brace offers bilateral protection.
• Retains Training Benefits: The positive biomechanical effects are so powerful that a 50% retention of the training effect is maintained even when you are not wearing the brace, building safer movement patterns over time.

Unmatched Comfort for Uninterrupted Performance

Advanced protection means nothing if the brace is uncomfortable to wear. The DonJoy Playmaker II Fourcepoint is designed for all-day, high-activity comfort.

• Immeasurable Comfort: The Hi10 high-tenacity nylon and spandex fabric, especially in the posterior, provides an unmatched, secure, and comfortable fit that moves with you.
• Just Plain “Easy” to Use: Molded strap tabs allow for quick, easy, and precise adjustments on the fly, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit throughout your activity without complicated setups.
• A “Cooler” Experience: An advanced spacer fabric promotes superior airflow, creating a cooler and more comfortable environment for your skin during all levels of activity, from training to game time.
