Fuente... You're probably C5/6 due to how your muscles are consistantly firing.
My freind is like this, but even more inc . Bastard can waddle a few feet and pee on command.

Shaun today, I think you're more of an L7. Maybe a ZZ-709.

No whats funny... Shaun pushes everywhere right?? He also lives in the flatest province... A 20ft high hill is Ginormous!

I hope it turns out that it's some 4-wheeling mofo w/ optional snow tires. If so, let me know. I'm in the market but don't know how to start looking!

Me too Shaun

One of these:

Because I want to go here (and places like it):

http://kingmagic.files.wordpress.com...ater-2891a.jpg

I don't intend to use it as my every day chair - wouldn't be practical anyway, the offices I visit.

I'm thinking as it as a jeep for my feet. If I wanted to go off-roading I wouldn't do it in a two wheel drive saloon. Same principle.








.......and I wanna pull that 360 he does at 2:03. With a girl on my lap. Drunk

w/ strong wrist extensors like Shaun's, you'd be functional c6, if there's weakness you'd be c5/6. of course, any additional movement like trunk or hip muscles will help immensely for transfers & balance, and even just for pushing the chair.

Man, going from my house to the two hospitals I always realize how un-flat Mount Royal is. Why do the build the two most English hospitals halfway up a frikkin mountain? It's a French conspiracy, I'm telling you!
