Spike Snow (Seated) by Exero

The Spike Snow (Seated) by Exero is a revolutionary, lightweight (just 11.2 lbs. / 5.1 kgs.) adaptive mobility device similar to a cross-country sit-ski or a para nordic seated ski! Users simply strap themselves into the Spike Snow (Seated) by Exero, adjust the seat angle, height and width, and footrest as desired, and propel themselves forward using poles—just like the professional parathletes.

Whether you're racing for gold or looking for a way to stay active during winter, the Spike Snow (Seated) by Exero can help you cruise through the snow in style. Because of its seated position and multiple strap/security options, this product is popular for riders including—but not limited to—those with spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis, spina bifida, cerebral palsy, lower-limb amputations, and more. It is a great solution for those who are uncomfortable in a kneeled position.

Which cushion is right for me?

The standard ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) cushion measures is a sleek, .6" (15mm) thick cushion. EVA is a popular, flexible, and resilient material used in ski boots, hockey pads, boxing globes, and elsewhere. You may also recognize the material from yoga blocks, which are almost always made of EVA.

For optimal support and protection against pressure ulcers, select the upgraded vacuum cushion. This vacuum cushion measures 16" x 12" (40 x 30 cm)can be inflated or deflated to your desired firmness and comes with a manual pump. Check out this video to see more about the vacuum cushion adjustment.
