Wheelchair Skills - Learn how to do a WHEELIE!!

Thank you for the lessons. I have been walking on crutches for 65 years and now it's time for a wheelchair. This is a difficult time and I need to learn from you younger people. I wish you a good life:face-red-heart-shape:

I also need this wheelchair

Hi Em, greetings from south Africa.. Truly enjoyed your video.. I am a T8 paraplegic for a year now.. So still relatively new.. Please keep excellent content like this coming.. Much appreciated..

Thanks for mentioning dance moves! I am ambulatory but about to start using a wheelchair because walking has become unbearable. But i love going out to shows and partying and dancing and was worried how to dance still!

I had not my own but a leaning chair, and this chair is not oké.. I wait for my own chair almost for half year now…. This is my first year in a wheelchair … I like your chair, red spikes ❤.. respect, a fall a lot of times when a practice a wheelie 🙈

Great video, I can't wait to try. I've been paraplegic for only 6 weeks but I'm unstoppable LOL. And let's not forget that you are absolutly lovely.

Informative but having a good time even though it is difficult. Love your presentation and attitude Em. Warrior princess-👩🏻‍🦽♿

That’s an amazing video Em❤️❤️

Awesome job.

Wow these are some cool moves Em 😎😎😎

This is great for people who are learning these skills Em, but also for people to understand how much you have to learn, develop and practice when you become paraplegic. You are doing so awesome... Oh and I recognise that gravel driveway footage 😂😂

Thank you so much for this, as I’m a 55 year old male who just got admitted into my first wheelchair, as I’m losing my ability to walk. My chair is the TiLite Aero Zed, which I got after two years of arguing at my insurer. Having gotten my chair just two weeks ago, I’m still learning the very basics. However I managed to wheel about two miles at the local mall, which I would never have walked previously with crutches and braces. Thank you again for your channel, and your personality is just so pleasant here on YouTube. Happily Subscribed. Cheers and God Bless

Thanks so much for these videos. While I really liked this one, I can't see myself ever learning this as I can't see myself ever being brave enough to try it -- I worry all the time about falling and this looks like a great way to do that.

Thanks so much. I am an elderly ambulant wheelchair user with a rare condition known as HSP. Does it take upper body strength or skill to do a wheelie?

Thank you very much. It's very important to paraplegia people.

After 20 years as a para, im still trying. Inner ear problem makes the world spin when i tip back to much.

My left hand doesn't work that well . Can I use one hand when I do a wheelie

does this take a lot of upper body strength? or is it more just about finding the balance point? I'd really like to start self propelling instead of relying on electric chair but I am worried I won't have the upper body strength

Hey there. Cool video. Ive been practicing in the wheelchair that I have, which is a loaner from the NHS here in the UK, so its quite heavy being a self propelled one. A problem I seem to be having is that the chair wants to drag to the left a lot, like as if I'm spinning stronger on one side than the other. Is this something that you experienced when you first learned to use a wheelchair and if so, how did you overcome it? Cheers. :o)

hi i am paralegic i like that skills and your wheelchair looks beautiful what kind of wheelchair is that
