I looked and got to tried out a action track wheelchair after seeing this chair kinda glad I didn't end up getting the track chair because of how big and how much slower it is compare to the X8 I like to go fast! lol seeing this I hope I can get my hands on one of these! looks so fun and having that freedom would be amazing to go anywhere would be awesome!
Thank you for getting in touch. Agreed that would be helpful, we try to include our clients as much as possible but naturally we are limited to the individuals requirements and schedule. Therefore, it's often necessary for us to carryout the videos independently
I really like the features of this chair, but I am wondering how much you used your legs contra your core muscles when riding it? I have neurological issues and my muscles are weak and really act up/hurt if I use them much at all...
Hello Klas, thank you so much for getting in touch. The level of muscle usage/fatigue very much depends on the seating system in place. Naturally due to the environment that the X8 will be used in, you will experience additional fatigue, however this can be managed with the appropriate seating in place. The chair is essentially a blank canvas, therefore any third party seating/bespoke option can be fitted. Hope this helps
I want one but only way would be able to would be to use it as every day chair too & not sure it suitable for going round shops, public transport etc lol
This is very good wheelchair some other wheelchairs couldn't do what your wheelchair can do. But can your wheelchair go into my home and though snow? It never shows how much this coast I would like have water proof for my cellphone, fishing holder, cup holder and is it water resistant?
Thank you for getting in touch Thomas. The Extreme X8 can easily tackle snow and although not that manoeuvrable in tight spaces, I have known users to operate the chair indoors, just depends on the space available. Price is never mentioned due to the prescriptive nature of the chair and difference in price structure relative to the country you're in. Hope that makes sense
i have a side lift full size handicap van. after i'm in the vehicle, if you push joystick all the way right or left, the chair moves sideways. it helps lining up for travel in the van. also helps in tight spaces. not good on rug or carpet though. works well in snow or ice. it can get wet, but don't submerge the motors or electronics. bought mine a few years ago. cost me about $17k usd. great chair for off road use.
@@tedbiv$17K, what!? That’s crazy! They must just be making them for rich people, not disabled people on Medicare or Social Security. We can’t afford it, plus we’d need a second vehicle for inside. Not practical!
Hi Michael, thank you for getting touch. Sand is something we definitely want to cover on the X8 and will do so as soon as we have time! Keep checking the page for more content
I wish we had these types of go anywhere wheelchairs here in the USA where I live. Do you have any dealers in the United States over here like in or near Missouri. The electric wheelchair I just bought gets stuck on grass in my yard, and even tho I have not tested this idea yet but the electric chair I have now might get stuck if I drove it over a picture of the grass that's in my yard. I found out my electric wheelchair it's only for flat level floors and concrete sidewalks but I live in a rural country setting and if I want to see the outdoors I have to look out a window. An this is not living to me, I want my life and freedom back. Does your company have any dealers in the USA, an if so, where are they located at. Thank you
Hello Else! Thank you for your comment. With careful use no the chair will not tip over. However for example, if you push a car beyond what it can handle it'll will inevitably roll or spin off the road, the same applies to the X8. Hope this helps
Thanks for getting in touch, the price is dependant on options and location which is why I tend to leave it out. In the UK the X8 starts from £15,950 and the current average lead time is 12 weeks. This is due to decrease as they are opening a distribution facility in Germany. As for the contact info, our details for an assessment can be found in the description or you can contact Magic Mobility directly in Australia. Hope that helps
Just had a life changing crash in one of these units . They defiantly should not be sold without the seat tilt feature . It needs to pick up the foot rest on incline descent angles .
I'm so sorry to hear that, you're absolutely right though, definitely something we encourage to add to the build of the chair when possible. Thank you for getting in touch
Is the X8 cost prohibited? Is this chair something I would have to purchase without insurance? Do you ship/deliver? The VA provided me with a Q700, which I love, but it's big and heavy (415 lb) so I can't take it off-road.
Hi Denny, thank you for your comment. The X8 definitely isn't a cheap powerchair option but in the UK the starting price is very similar to the Q700 Sedeo Ergo so dependant on your model it could be comparable. I wouldn't know the answer regarding insurance unfortunately but my advice would be to contact your insurer for further information. As for shipping, this could be arranged although depending on your location you maybe better off communicating with Magic Mobility as they will direct you to the most appropriate dealer in your area. Hope this helps.
Thanks for this. I’m thinking about getting this. My questions if you don’t mind. 1. Between the rear wheels there was, I think, an anti tip bar. Did this catch? 2. Could this fit in the back of an SUV. I use an (now obsolete) Alber Adventure. It does well off road (but not that well,) and can be ramped into an estate. 3. Am I right to assume this is never for indoor use, to be kept outside or in a garage? Thanks for the film. Peter
Hello Peter, thank you for getting in touch. Yes that's correct, the roll bar is purely optional and only beneficial for those tackling steep inclines that require extra rear stability. In everyday use this can get in the way when dropping down a kerb or in tight storage situations. Normally I'd recommend this option and any others following an assessment. Yes, depending on the options selected, the backrest can be removed or part folded so access into a suitably sized SUV is absolutely possible. The chair has been built specifically for an outdoor environment therefore only a very accessible property would allow it to be used indoors. Hope this helps and I'm so glad you enjoyed the video.
Anyone purchasing one of these x8's seriously needs to do research along with a good day driving it prior to purchase along with having a tech who knows how to modify joystick imputes , Magic Mobility should supply option to owners who are capable to set up there own chair when service centers are not capable like in tasmania ! So future owners research purchases
Thank you for getting in touch, it might be worth contacting local charities in your area for funding? Also crowd funding is another option or sourcing a second hand option.
Hi Umar, sorry for the delay but I'd recommend contacting Magic Mobility Australia who will hopefully be able to point you in the right direction and give you an idea on price. Thank you for getting in touch.
Thanks for your comment Steve! This is purely a demo chair meaning that if you require a headrest, different backrest and further positional support, you can do.
I am a disabled vet , the VA is getting me one of these next month ,.. I can't wait. For the last 5 years my world stopped at the end of the pavement. There getting me the add ons so i can Shoot and enjoy archery again with the one hand i have left. plopping a portable generator on back and they have a small minioff road trailer the x8 can pull which gives me the ability to pack a tent and go on multi day hunts by myself again. I live in the mountains of West Virgina the link is to a video by a local man it was all shot within a 20 MIN DRIVE FROM MY HOUSE , YOU WILL SEE WHY I AM SO EXCITED ,.. th-cam.com/video/I181Digm5kY/w-d-xo.html
That’s wonderful that they will supply you with this expensive machine. You deserve it! Now I just wish they were more affordable so us non-VET disabled people could afford them or at least get some help from Medicare or Social Security. As it is, they will only cover certain chairs or scooters if they are for indoors only. I guess they want us stuck in the house so we die early! Anyway, thank you for your service🇺🇸 I hope you’re enjoying your ride!👍🏼
@@suew4609 Sue i couldn't agree with you more ,.. i know the material used leaves no choice but a huge price For example mine has ever upgrade and goes for 35k , even the base model is 24 k
Finally, someone is seeing that just because we use wheelchairs, does not mean we want to stop having fun. I hope someday I can get one of these!
Thank you so much for your comment! We’ll keep our fingers crossed that you do 🤞
They make them ridiculously expensive, though!
Just got mine a couple of days ago. Mega upgrade from previous PWC. Can't wait to hit the beach for fishing. Been 20 years.
Ah this is great news! Hope you have lots of fun with it, thanks for getting in touch
Haven't proven anything ‼️ Take it on some of Florida's Sugar Sand or on deep beach sand, also are the motors chain drive?
i have the x8, i need steering lock installed, u based in uk yes? u have it instock to install?
best off road chair that fits in handicap van and inside home. fits through 28'' door openings.

Haha no not quite the chair for around town! They do a MWD equivalent though...
@@clinicalmobilitysolutions2131 I have the MWD version, no where near as good AT and too big for most houses.
Would I be able to use this chair on public transport? I would need to to get to the places I want to go.
Hi again Ash, it's not impossible but it wouldn't be easy. The focus is on outdoor performance rather than indoor manoeuvrability
@@clinicalmobilitysolutions2131 Thanks for getting back to me. Much appreciated.
How many miles or kilometers would you guess that you went while testing it during the day
Thanks for getting in touch! I'd probably guess at 4/5 miles? Not huge distances but fairly challenging terrain!
can this go on sandy beach
Thank you for getting in touch Peter. Yes, this can tackle loose, sandy beaches. We'll hopefully be able to demonstrate that in a future video

How much bawer and price 😃👍
Thanks for getting in touch, the setup dictates the price so it'd all depend on the options chosen and what seating is prescribed
@@clinicalmobilitysolutions2131 give the basic price and from that we can decide if it’s affordable with or without further enhancements.
Thanks for this. I’m thinking about getting this. My questions if you don’t mind.
