Cause i have some expiriences with the VGK-S Version Knee i´d like to share them ! (I wasn´t a perfect walker at this time and i still feel i not reached the top of the hill, so it´s very hard to handle this informations also there is much difference between short and Long leg etc.)
It feels like a sports car against a C-Leg. Cause the System is placed over the knee Level the lower leg is incredible light i couldn´t feel the swing, also very low Forces at socket cause the weight is Close to leg. I like it´s running without battery, it´s waterproof, has a hydraulic that never has to be adjusted if carry more weight for example.
Functions (VGK-S "+" cycling Modus) locking in straight Position, Walking by use the hydraulic and cycling Modus means free swing.
For me as beginner the saver choice is the C-Leg but if i´m getting better in future this could be my favorite one !
(left: VGK-S newer socket right: C-Leg3 and 1st socket)
(VGK allows 170° so it´s possible to sit on the back of your foot, VGK-S vs. C-Leg3)
some vid footage(i´m armed cause it has to fit in my paintball channel ):

Yesterday i´ve been to my tech, he gave me the pretty Close to finish Waterproof leg(still need to wait for the final Foot and knee). Incredible hard to walk with a very low flxible foot, after Walking now for a year with my Triton foot, which is much softer and more flexible. For low stump´s the VGK-S Knee is perfect !

Cause i often get asked how much weight my leg got and i didn´t know exactly i´ve put all parts on a scale. I havn´t thougt that the difference is that high(close too 1,5kg) between daily use C-Leg+Triton+Protector and VGK-S Waterproof Setup !
I´m still waiting for my shower shoes to have my first Standing shower experience after more than 2 years using a shower seat !
VGK-S weight 3026g :
C-Leg weight 4520g :
Liner with Pin weight 582g :

So i had my first Standing shower after more than 2 years !
It still feel´s strange but it´s getting better ! The leg feel´s total different against my C-Leg. With shoes it´much better than with naked foot, i also use an anti slip on the shower ground.
