I had to have 6 wrist/arm surgeries so I got an Allsports brace.I loved it. They even locked it down solid for me for free after my complete right wrist fusion. Now I don't wear it at all because my wrist is solid bone, but for 2 years that brace was like gold to me.

I ordered one from Bob's before Christmas and I still don't have it. I have 7 screws and 2 plates in my wrist. It is very weak so I am hoping the brace will help?

Broke my right radius and crushed some metacarples. Kinda botched surgeries over 3 years led to a fusion. Couldn't work for over 2 years!I couldn't squeeze anything.Shake hands,hold a milk carton,turn a door nob,etc. Last resort was fusion but my pain level went from a constant 9 to about a 2 now. No range of motion to speak of but with my chicken wing method of throttle control and a deft finger on the clutch,I can still ride. Unsure

the All Sport Dynamics brace i have (the OTS) offers no support at all, it simply prevents hyper-extension and protects from impacts. I have to wear another sort of wrap under it to add any sort of actual support.

I wear mine that I bought a few years ago after breaking my wrist. I tried to ride this weekend without but felt like I was missing something. I use it to prevent hyperextension which broke my wrist in the first place. I would definitely get one if you are having wrist problems.
