The HXC wheelchair by Jovan De La Vega makes sports like skateboarding in a skate park accessible for everyone. The wheelchair has been especially designed to enter skate parks, featuring a low back rest with a bar to avoid back damage as well as an angular metal structure for doing tricks.
Jovan De La Vega's images demonstrate the versatility of the wheelchair, showcasing the person's ability (and fearlessness in my opinion) through their upper body strength. As dangerous as skate parks can be, it is definitely nice to see that they can now be accessible to everyone.
