SoftWheel
The SoftWheel in-wheel suspension technology reinvents the wheel to help reduce pain and increase comfort for full-time ultra- lightweight chair users.
In-wheel shock
absorbers automatically
switch between providing
rigidity and cushioning,
lowering the severity of
shock and vibration, reducing pain and fatigue, and increasing comfort. In-wheel suspension, created by three suspension arms built inside the wheel rim, absorbs shocks from any direction. They remain perfectly rigid over flat terrain, yet offer unpar- alleled cushioning for everything from going over a carpet threshold in the house to navigating bumpy pavement outside or traveling off-road. Rapid shock-reset allows the shocks to engage quickly when needed, providing better chair control while also conserving momentum to make it easier to push.
Adaptive rigidity technology keeps the wheel’s three suspen- sion arms perfectly rigid and strong, like spokes. When encoun- tering bumpy or uneven terrain, the arms automatically compress to absorb the shock, making the wheels do the work instead of the user. SoftWheel rims are available in two models, magnesium and aluminum, and are constructed as single-piece rigid forms for added strength. Based in Tel Aviv, SoftWheel products are sold exclusively in the United States by Numotion.

SofTech Basic
The SofTech Basic
is a standardized
automatic cushion
that uses two groups
of air bladders that
alternate to interrupt
the constant pressure
from sitting. This
provides pressure
relief needed to
prevent pressure injury caused by constant pressure.
The ischial and sacral areas are made extra soft for comfort, while the rest of the cushion gently massages the posterior.
This cushion operates via a single switch. The cushion mate- rial is waterproof, coated foam that prevents bottoming out. All components, such as battery and pump, are built into the cushion for convenience and a clean look. The SofTech Basic weighs about 5 lbs., can be used on any chair, and is battery operated (with more than 25 hours of service on a charge).
A digital voltage meter on the remote shows battery status. Three standard sizes are available, but custom configurations
or sizes can be produced at an upcharge. The standard, non- customized SofTech Basic has no code; a custom-made version is coded E2609. A rent-to-own option is available.

Extreme X8
The Magic Mobility Extreme X8 off-road 4x4 can handle just about any destination, through sand or snow and up or down curbs. Tremendous off-road
performance and reliability
make it perfect for outdoor adventurers, explorers and rural workers.
With a top speed of
6.5 mph, the Extreme
X8 combines rugged
construction with high-
torque gear in-line
motors. Articulated
frame technology
helps keep all four
driving wheels on
the ground as the 14"
low-pressure tires give
the traction required to overcome what some say is impossible.
This wheelchair is compatible with various aftermarket and Innovation In Motion seating options, including MPS seating and various models in the Magic Rehab line.
The Extreme X8 is rugged enough to get through deep sand and bumpy backwoods, but compact enough to take on a plane. Innovation In Motion
