He holds the world record in the 100 metres T43 category with a time of 10.57sec and won a gold medal in the 200m at London 2012 when he caused the upset of the Paralympics by beating South Africa's Oscar Pistorius. 

Oliveira won three gold medals and a silver at the 2013 International Paralympic Committee (IPC) World Championships and shortly afterwards set his world record at the London Anniversary Games in the Olympic Stadium 

Rehm was one of the biggest stars at last year's IPC World Championships when he jumped an amazing 7,95 metres in the long jump event.

Rehm was amputated below the knee at the age of 14 following a wakeboarding accident and has gone on to become a prosthetist himself in addition to competing in athletics at elite level. 

Oliveira and Rehm join a select group of Paralympians at Team Össur, including April Holmes, Blake Leeper, Jerome Singleton, Jody Cundy and Richard Whitehead. 

Icelandic company Össur claim to be the world leader in non-invasive orthopaedics.
