All Terrain Wheelchair Open New Doors MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT Handicapped Equipment 27-5-4 People in wheelchairs used to be limited to paved paths and flat surfaces. But now a company called Natural Access has made a wheelchair that can handle all types of terrain in all kinds of weather. It has opened doors for people who couldn't go outside as often as they wanted to. "It's a new-found freedom. It's just nice to know we can go to all those places we couldn't before," says Mary Ellis.
The "Landeez" is an all-terrain wheelchair that's so versatile it can ride gently over gravel, soft soil, forest trails and even snow. Its air-filled balloon-like tires dampen vibrations while providing more surface area with which to grip. The stainless steel frame with aluminum axles weighs just 37 lbs. so it's easy to transport. The whole chair comes apart by pulling two pins.
Another thing that makes the "Landeez" different from other wheel chairs is that it can be customized to a great degree. A motorized version is available and it can be fitted with normal wheels for indoor use.
