Wheelchair user climbing up some steep stairs, and running out of railing.

Climbing steep stairs is always tougher, when the railing runs out at the top also tough and when my Cam-Locks slip because of under inflated tires, further challenging. Still better than helpful souls straining their backs etc trying to get you some access.

@criplog they are Hill-Holders usually used by quads in the other direction. the tough part is the effective instal.

thats impressive. i could prolly do that if i had a lap belt. im going to fabricate a bracket so i can have a quick release belt i can keep in my backpack =)

@jimirockett2000 Hi Mike, Thanks for watching. You would be surprised how handy a seat belt is once you have one, my friend uses his constantly, mostly carrying things and w/c tricks. I've climbed stairs for years with just the seat belt, but now I couldn't really do it with my Cam-Locks (hill-holders set in reverse action). The way you went up that climbing wall and how light you chair is, you could def do this. Please post when you do.

@markelldawg Sure, if there suddenly was a cure that worked, i would sell everything I own to get it. Wouldn't you?

That's awesome, I'm learning how to do things differently everyday in my chair.
