Leave it to a snowboarder to come up with something this cool. And leave it to Abilities Expo, to make sure it gets to you. The Wheelchair Super X Fun Course is nothing short of a blast and is open to everyone, regardless of ability. Not only will you have the opportunity pit your skills against the twists, turns and bumps in the track, you can park your own chair and ride the Trevair Chair with Electric Scooter.
Since his 1997 snowboarding accident, Trevor “Trevair” Snowden has been busy. Determined not to be limited by his new circumstances, he remained a force the world of extreme sports, setting a world record for the longest wheelchair jump. He then focused his knowledge and experience into developing a new kind of wheelchair, one that would better suit his uber-active lifestyle. The result was the Trevair Chair, a lightweight manual wheelchair that offers superior suspension to reduce the shock and strain to your back. According to Snowden, “It’s like driving a Suzuki Samurai versus a Cadillac.”
Snowden then took his wheelchair creation and kicked it up a notch. The Super X is the manual Trevair chair, enhanced with an adapted I-Ped electric scooter which can be easily attached in a matter of seconds. In the words of Snowden, “Simply click it, lock down, power up and ride!” This device offers the wheelchair user additional power, maneuverability and, the best part, you get to take it for a spin at Abilities Expo!
