For Cody Escobedo, getting back on his feet did not mean easing into everyday movement.
It meant returning to the rodeo arena.
Cody is a professional bullfighter out of Gilbert, Arizona. After a rodeo injury led to ankle fusion surgery and a metal plate in his ankle, finding the right support was not just about comfort. It was about confidence, protection, and being able to move in one of the toughest environments possible.
That is why he tried the TayCo AthleticX Brace.
In just a few weeks, Cody performed at 3 rodeos and worked around 200 bulls while wearing the brace.
His honest review?
“I actually really like them.”
Cody shared that the brace fit well over his bullfighting cleats, felt snug and comfortable, and held up when a horn or hoof hit the outside. He also said the internal pad options made a big difference because of the metal plate in his ankle.
For Cody, the TayCo AthleticX Brace gave him support without forcing him to change his footwear or slow down his lifestyle.
And while most people are not facing down bulls in an arena, many are trying to get back to something just as important to them.
Work. Training. Hiking. Sports. Family life. Daily movement.
Whatever “getting back to it” looks like, the right ankle support can help you move with more confidence.
Cody’s story is a powerful reminder that recovery is not just about getting through an injury.
It is about getting back to the life you are not ready to give up.
