Default SPuDs with float?

Does anyone make SPuDs (MTB SH51/55/56 cleats) with additional float
beyond that provided by the normal connection. WTB used to, but I do
not see them on their current website.

Otherwise, probably Speedplay Frogs, though that means a lot of pedals
to replace on occasional use bikes, or multiple shoes.

Mod some cheap regular cleats with a file. Disclaimer: this may lead
to needing dental work.

On a 'bent, it could result in muscle- and ligament-tearing legsuck.
On a 'bent trike, it could lead to orthopedic surgery to screw what's
left of your leg back together.
