See if you can get a prescription from your doctor for one so you can write it off on extended health. If not, you can buy them from any sporting goods store. Depends on what you are looking for. Nothing will beat the USA for pricing.
Locally, you can check out volleyball stuff:
Ankle Braces

Skyline sports:

TeamSkyline: Sporting Goods - home

Northern athletics:

Northern Athletic- your source for school sports

There is also a lace up style that will not wreck the inside of your shoes.

This is an example of what the lace up looks like:

ASO Ankle Stabilizing Orthosis - The Brace Shop

This is the Malleoloc that my wife and a few friends use:

Bauerfeind MalleoLoc Ankle Brace - The Brace Shop

This site shows a good variety of different braces:

MOST POPULAR VOLLEYBALL BRACES

You can find most of these locally, but like I said earlier, they are a lot cheaper in the USA

ASO ones are better for you than the active ankles as they have more give but still support really well. Some cases of broken bones from awkward landings linked to the active ankles.

Is there a consensus on which people are using more for volleyball? The lace up ones or the super rigid ones?

My wife and her friends like the malleoloc b/c it is light and prevents you from actually rolling. I only wore braces after I rolled my ankle. After I strengthened them back. I stopped wearing braces so my ankle would not weaken. There is quite the debate on that topic.
I will wear it if I think there is a possibility of rolling. Otherwise I never wear braces when I play coed reverse 4's

Where are some good places for flashlights? I'm looking at the 4Sevens Maelstrom X7 in particular as an everyday carry.
I looked at Warriors and Wonders but they are out of stock

Other than Central City Brewing in Surrey, are there any bars in Surrey/Langley that sell growlers of beer?


I think CC's Red Racer is $5 for the growler and $10 to fill it.

Not sure if they have that exact one, but you could try Dave's Surplus in New Westminster. I know a lot of RCMP and VPD go there for their own gear.

Dollar stores have them, and I'm sure Daiso would have them as well.
