“I couldn’t play in any other chair."

Sophie Carrigill

"This chair really gives me an advantage on speed, turning and puts me in a better position to be able to shoot the ball. It’s really quick around corners and I’m able to turn much more easily."

When the world’s best athletes choose this wheelchair, why would you play in anything else?

Triframe

The TRI-FRAME is a brand-new design that better distributes the energy created during play across more sections of the chair, the benefit of which is peace of mind that your chair can withstand anything. Instead of relying solely on the axle, the force is now split across the downtube, the strongest part of the frame.

  • Triangular frame chassis design (TRI-FRAME) that takes the main stress off of the axle with the strongest shape possible
  • Heavy duty frame design available
  • Reinforced "impact areas" to prevent game and travel damage, such as backrest and anti-tip
  • Heavy duty frame design available

The utmost best performance of your wheelchair is ensured by only using elements produced by market leaders, alongside a staggering 19 quality checks throughout the build, from measure to handover.

  • Optimised biomechanics for maximum power and efficiency
  • Seating position to suit your game
  • Perfect toe in toe out for minimum drag

"I feel like being in an Elite has changed my way of playing. It helps me move a lot faster, turn quicker and fits me perfectly. The dipped section we added towards the back of the seat also keeps me stable so I don't fall out. Being made to my own measurements and preferred way of sitting really helps.
All in all I am more comfortable with my game play since being in my Elite."
