All Terrain Mobility – adventure awaits!

Access without limitation, an all-terrain wheelchair provides the freedom of exploration and adventure on rugged ground, sand and hilly landscapes. Unlike a conventual outdoor wheelchair that is designed for urban environments like footpaths, parks and less rugged gravel and grass surface. An all-terrain wheelchair takes the adventure of outdoor exploration head on.

If you go beyond the paved paths and enjoy outdoor activities like camping, hiking or time at the beach, then the right off-road wheelchair will provide the durability and stability needed to navigate the terrain and adventure that awaits. In this article we focus on three specialised outdoor mobility products, the Magic Mobility Extreme XT4 Power Wheelchair, the Mountain Trike All Terrain Wheelchair and the Hippocampe Beach Wheelchair.

Magic Mobility Extreme XT4 Power Wheelchair

The newly released Australian made Magic Mobility Extreme XT4 Power Wheelchair is an advance off-road 4X4 power wheelchair. An ultimate example of engineering, offering expectational stability, range, comfort and control, alongside patented front and rear suspension, unstoppable torque, unique servo-powered steering and high-capacity batteries. This chair is crafted for outdoor adventure, great for bush, sand and hilly rugged environments.

Mountain Trike All Terrain Wheelchair

The Mountain Trike All Terrain Wheelchair is designed for those who love to hike, and it will take on a muddy bush trail, a steep hill or mountain trail climb. Designed from the ground up to offer stability and a balanced seating position, the customised specialist suspension maintains stability and comfort across rugged and rocky surfaces. This all-terrain self-propelled wheelchair commonly comes supplied with a eTrike power conversion kit, this addition of a powered rear wheel allows the user to go further. The Mountain Trike is also available as a Push Chair and ePush Chair, offering greater flexibility for everyone. The Mountain Trike’s unique design means that the one frame can be adapted to suit a child, and the trike can grow with them into adulthood.

Hippocampe Beach Wheelchair

The Hippocampe Beach Wheelchair is an all-terrain collapsible, lightweight recreational wheelchair designed for the enjoyment of outdoor activities especially in and around the water. Designed with a sturdy construction it can tackle rough terrain, sand and can go in the water – it even floats!  The Hippocampe’s buoyant balloon rear tyres make travelling across the sand and into the water a breeze. It has sleeving on the aluminium tube frame that helps prevent it getting too hot in the sun. Stringent safety and resistance testing ensures the Hippocampe is a reliable and highly functional piece of equipment!

If travel and outdoor adventure is what you seek, then the comfort, durability and support of an All-Terrain Wheelchair might be the answer. We have looked at three of several off-road and all-terrain mobility wheelchairs available. However, as always, it is best to find the assistive technology that suits you and your requirements the most. Because – getting it right matters.
