  • Thanks! I found out the hard way that my foot was dragging. Apparently, the rug running along the floor of a gas station mart was running with me. lol

  • nice anecdote.

  • Are you at risk for pressure wounds with that belt around your feet?  Could you also use it on thinner material shoes? By the way Gael, I got my first wheelchair, last time we spoke I was still walking all the time, now I use the wheelchair for outdoor activities, so your advises became helpful to me now, not only to my patients.

  • yes, the foot drag is definitely more of a problem outdoors on rugged terrains because the feet bounce out of the footplate. always be careful not to tighten it too much and cause pressure sores.

  • ohhhh reflective glasses striking back :)

    Forgot to say it on the other video Elon looks huge and beautiful, ok something kind to you too nice tip :)

  • yeah elon grew to be a big boy.
