In an ideal world, custom molded wheelchair seating systems would always fit perfectly right out of the box. In reality, modifications to custom back supports and cushions are sometimes necessary. Changes in a rider’s anatomy or other factors can create the need for adjustments to ensure optimal outcomes.
At Ride, we understand the importance of making these modifications as seamless as possible. When adjustments to Ride custom products are needed, they can often be completed in the field by certified professionals. While modifying the shape of a Ride Custom Back or Ride Custom Cushion requires expertise, our commitment is to design our products to facilitate these changes with ease.
You Asked, We Listened!
We are excited to introduce a significant improvement to our Ride Custom Back. We have added a textile backing to the AccuSoft® foam liner, which enables the foam to be peeled away from the back shell without tearing. This enhancement simplifies the modification process, allowing for more efficient and precise adjustments.
This new feature is now standard with every Ride Custom Back ordered with AccuSoft foam liner and is available immediately. We are confident that this improvement will greatly benefit our Ride Certified Practitioners and the clients they serve, making it easier to achieve the perfect fit every time.
