Video of Glitteryboy's powerchair progress!

He's had it 6 months now and only really gets a proper go at the weekends but i had him down the park yesterday and (i thought) he was pretty fab!

Still likes going round in circles but much more control now when going straight etc.
Not bad going for the boy with Dystonic CP they said would never ride a trike, stand up in a walker or work a powerchair!! (Wishes there was a middle finger emoticon!)

Apologies as One True Media has stuck the 3 videos in one so it lasts about 7 mins.....make yourself a cuppa! Grin

Glitteryboy!

apologies for all the wind noise but if you keep the volume up you'll hear us having a little chat about not going in the water....he had saw a speedboat earlier and i had made the mistake of saying it was just like his powerchair but on the water! Hmm

That is one cool (& gorgeous) kid! he looks like he enjoyed the bumpy bits, a bit of off roading next! I recon he'll be asking you to up the speed next. :)

Yeah for some reason every time he sees a bit of rough or holey ground he heads for it....must be checking out the suspension!
H likes it going fast but i had to turn the speed down at first because he was whizzing around too quickly, took me ages as i couldnt get near it without getting my toes run over! Grin

thats so lovely glitterySmile I too had a smile when i saw he was determined to head for the water!

glittery · 14/08/2010 21:52

yeah, i'll need to keep an eye on him!
i usually just let him get on with it but end up having to walk quickly over to him if he looks like he's going to cause any bother...far too many joggers, dogs and kids on bikes around usually! Grin
