About the Sand Rider Beach Wheelchair

Beach wheelchairs are an incredible asset to wheelchair-bound individuals seeking independence. Bill Fertig, a paraplegic and the founder of Sand Rider, knows this fact firsthand. After a motorcycle accident left him without the use of the lower half of his body, Fertig found himself needing more help than ever. The feeling of relying on others to move around, especially after an incredible career as a police officer, was a challenge. He soon adapted to life controlled by his arms, exploring a new independence with his wheelchair, becoming a competitive hand-cycle athlete, and driving his car using various hand controls. However, his independence would soon be challenged during a beach vacation.

Fertig and his family wheeled down to the beach, using an outdated and cumbersome beach wheelchair, not expecting the experience to be extremely difficult, uncomfortable and unpleasant. Rather than become a burden for his family, Fertig chose to stay behind, missing out on the family fun and the beautiful weather to avoid using the sand wheelchair. He and his son Chris knew, at that moment, that something needed to change.

Sand Rider, the ultimate beach wheelchair, would be the solution. Fertig and Chris, an engineer and two time world record holder for the fastest speed boat run from New York to Bermuda, put their heart and soul into the new and improved beach wheelchair. Its lightweight and rigid frame, along with its oversized tires, allow users to glide over deep sands and navigate obstacles with ease.

This new kind of independence gave sand wheelchair users, like Fertig, the opportunity to be actively involved in beach activities such as digging for clams in tidal areas, shell collecting on barrier islands, and exploring the beaches of the world without hesitation. The Sand Rider can be easily checked as luggage in its special roller duffle bag, or broken down into three parts, without tools, for easy transportation. The Sand Rider is a game-changing, expertly designed beach wheelchair, and is guaranteed to encourage independence and endless summer family fun.
