Chair to Car transfer

Noise is very loud on this one... I'm not sure how to change that quite yet. Just a short vid on how I get in my car. I was taught how to do this at GF Strong, and I have tried other ways but this seems to be the best way. I put the tires behind the passenger seat, I don't think you can see that part well.
I'm putting it in the "How to & Style" section because the "how to" fits and I can't see anywhere to put it ;)

I'm a t12 para and i do this every day to. Your char looks way more comfortable than mine! That back rest looks comfey, mine barely exists....I use a Quickie Ti, what model is that you have?

My chair is a quickie as well, I've torn all the annoying tags so long ago that's all I know!

What kind of cushion and back is that and what do you think of them? I've been looking for a new cushion for awhile.

My back is a Matrix PB or something like that, and I've torn off the tag of my seat a long time ago so I have no idea. Some sort of specialty foams. I really like the back, it hugs you so you don't fall over as easy :P

Thanks paraAdrian!

I lift it over me, lying down with the seat back, and over to the passenger seat.

Thanks for showing how you do it. I'll be needing to do it soon and I am trying to figure out the best way for me. I think I might do what you did, wheels in the back, frame on the seat beside me.

Thanks for posting this, i've lived with handicap people my whole life.

I've never seem anyone do this before, but have seen people like yourself in a wheel chair, with a car. I always wanted to know how you got in, and got the wheel chair in!

Thanks for answering. I use an ADI carbon fiber backrest, but it's not curved. I could use a lower one if it was. I've been looking for a good cushion that is curved for my legs and is also good for a high risk of skin breakdown.
