Many outdoor activities present a challenge for those in a wheelchair. Simple things such as a trek in the woods can be virtually impossible, but the Action Trackchair could provide a way for disable persons to venture off-road. It features an internal battery pack that offers up to eight miles of travel at a top speed of 5mph. It won’t allow the user to venture through the woods as if they were in a tank, but it could make it possible for users to go places that would be otherwise inaccessible.
The Action Trackchair is available from Action Manufacturing of Marshall, Minnesota. And while $9000 might not seem cheap, it is probably worth every penny to those who can experience a bit more mobility.
