MY NEW WHEELCHAIR

After months of waiting, I finally get my new wheelchair. It's the same as my old one but it is a sparkly blue and has that new wheelchair smell. This one rolls much easier so hopefully I can race faster with it at the Kona marathon 5k race in June.
Here are some pictures of them building it and making the custom back for it.


Here they are pouring a chemical in the back which get really hot while it turned to foam around my back.

Here it is from the other direction.

What my wheelchair looked like before the back was made
.
They are getting ready to cut the foam after it set up.

Getting ready to mix the chemicals to make the back. My dad's weight machine finally getting some use, even if it is as a table.
.
And the finished product.
