The GANYMED® Walking Aid redefines mobility with a thoughtful, ergonomic design that promotes natural posture, reduces strain, and offers a reliable, stylish alternative to traditional crutches. Unlike standard aids, the GANYMED® shifts the touchdown point forward, encouraging a more upright and natural gait. Its specially shaped rubber capsule provides stable support and directional control, while also allowing the walking aid to be conveniently hung up, no more crutches constantly falling over.
What truly sets GANYMED® apart is its innovative rubber capsule, featuring a unique grid structure that allows for customizable hardness. The capsule rotates 180° to switch its deformation pattern, allowing for personalized comfort and support.

With GANYMED®, mobility becomes more than just movement – it becomes confidence, comfort, and style.

Note: Max weight is 130 kg (285 lbs). The handle height on the Compact Track is 79 – 91 cm (31,1“- 35,8“) and the Regular- and Wide Track is 80 – 95 cm (31,5” – 37,4”).
If your measurement from floor to wrist is not within this range, this rollator is not likely to be a good fit.
Other things to consider:
Seat height
The main difference between the Compact- and the Regular and Wide Track is the seat height. The higher the seat, the easier it is to get in and out of the seat.
Body shape and flexibility
The ergonomic design of the handles means that they are narrower at the top,
This further means that even though the seat width shows a fit, you might need to do a bit of “salsa” around the handles to get into the seat. If you do not feel comfortable or flexible
enough to do so, we recommend to choose a wider model.
Use of seat
How much you tend to use the seat matters for your choice of model. If you rely on the
seat for frequent rests, a wider seat will be a more comfortable option.
If you won’t be sitting a lot and you are fine with doing a bit of “salsa” when getting in and
out of the seat, then a slimmer model would be a good match.
Indoor vs outdoor use
If you plan on using your rollator mostly inside, with chair nearby and narrow walk-ways,
a slimmer model is advisable, since it takes up less space and have a bigger marginal to
fit through doors etc.
