Radiographs reveal a dorsally angulated distal radius fracture with the fracture line approximately 1 cm proximal to the radiocarpal joint. The physician describes this as a classic Colles fracture and requests closed reduction with casting. After reduction, which cast would be MOST appropriate for immobilization of this injury?
