Wombat Living
R82/Convaid have announced the North American launch of Wombat Living by R82, designed as a best-in-class, daily tilt-in- space activity chair that improves upon the original. Created for use at school and at home, Wombat Living comes in three sizes and two fresh new colors, and it’s capable of multiple configurations. The seating unit tilts from -20° to 15° for relaxed and active postures with plenty of adjustment for growth. An angle-adjustable push brace can be positioned out of the way when not needed. Accessories include a power actu- ator for height adjustment, lateral supports and head supports.

Custom Cushion 2
There is no plaster mess or shapes to ship back when ordering the Ride Custom Cushion 2! Just use the new RideWorks app plus a scanner for a faster, cleaner, more intuitive and incredibly accurate process that allows you to capture a client’s unique shape. Then securely transmit the information to complete your order. At 16x16", the average Custom Cushion 2 weighs just 1.8 lbs. Its base is softer than the original Custom Cushion base, and the cushion cover can be upgraded with Soft Fit options for enhanced comfort. But the Custom Cushion 2 still offers all the skin and postural care of the original Custom Cushion.

JAY J3 HV Back
We can’t control the weather, but JAY’s new J3 HV back can influence a wheelchair user’s all-important microclimate. The J3 HV back can provide warmth or cooling at the flip of a switch. Internal thermal technology includes evaporative cooling to dissipate moisture and pull it away from the body. A recharge- able battery provides at least eight hours
of continuous use, and indicator lights tell a wheelchair user if heat (red) or cooling (blue) is currently on. An automatic shut-off feature is incorporated for additional safety. A micro- climatic cover features wicking material
and a layer of 3DX space fabric to promote airflow and dissipate heat/moisture.

Free Form Seating
This custom wheelchair seating changes as
a client’s weight fluctuates and can provide less or more support as children and teens grow. Highly adaptable Free Form Seating allows for gradual corrective positioning; modules can be removed or recessed for complete off-loading. The system can accommodate kyphosis, scoliosis, lordosis and many other shapes while remaining lightweight, breathable and strong. Adapters enable the system to be compatible with many different wheelchairs and surfaces. Shell has some flex to dampen vibration and accommodate dynamic movement. Available in Back Kits, custom shapes or sheets.
