Less Wasted Energy
Reduced Injury Risk
Better Body Positioning
Lower vertical oscillation results in more efficient forward momentum.
Less bounce and better body positioning reduce stress on your bones, muscles, and ligaments.
Better foot and leg positioning means reduced braking forces and smoother heel-to-toe transition.
Continuous Forward Momentum

Footstrike The Karhu fulcrum works with your body to produce maximum efficiency no matter what footstrike you exhibit.
Heel
Midfoot
Forefoot
The fulcrum transitions your momentum quickly off the heel and onto toe-off.
You’re already perfectly positioned to pivot over the fulcrum point.
Most people experience slight dropping of the heel after an initial forefoot strike. That is when the fulcrum activates, moving you forward.
