Thank you for taking the time to do the trail and show the real-world positives and limits of the Electra 7. As an amateur wildlife photographer I seek out 'wheelchair accessible' outdoor (supposedly ADA compliant) locations that often have exactly the issues you pointed out - raised ledged on the wooden walkways, surface embedded tree branches in the trail itself that would pose potential travel problems for most wheelchairs and all rolling walkers, and disappearing surfaces. Your video enables me to more correctly assess the strengths (many) and limitations (some) of the chair. This kind of information is extremely helpful to someone transitioning from a rolling walker to a portable wheelchair, (who already lives in the woods). Thanks! P.S. Hopefully you reported the wooden walkway erosion issues to the Park staff as this looks like it was supposed to be the 'wheelchair accessible' part of the trail. If no one complains things don't get fixed.
Hello Jean, thank you for your comment. It can be frustrating when trails that are supposed to be ADA compliant, aren't. We do what we can to demonstrate real world circumstances as much as possible!
Hello Clay, thank you for your comment. The Electra7 is a versatile chair that can go many places! quicknmobile.com/product/electra7-wide-bariatric-folding-travel-wheelchair/
You really need to have a disabled person demonstrating your chair. Getting out of the chair is not an option for some of us. Figuring a way around obstacles is something we get really good at.
Hello Everett, Thank you for your feedback. We do the best we can to showcase these chairs as they are, with who we have available to demonstrate. We are always open minded however.

Could you have gone over that bridge going backwards?
Hello Everett, Thank you for your comment and question. Yes, the chair would have been able to go over the bridge going backwards.
