I did get to learn more about what you're talking about. I have not yet started to modify my chair but will be soon. I heard of the things you show and another device in the making that stabilizes the chair by lifting it off the ground all together.

I stand corrected, You are absolutely right. I met Ferrol and he is a very nice person who gives lots of info when asked. He used to be the national coach for the Dutch disabled shooters before he became an IPC Jury member. Albert Thanks. I wrote him an e-mail this evening. Let's see if he has any ...

I'm not sure what they would be using to "stabilize" a wheelchair. I shoot in my everyday wheelchair. I use the brakes so it doesn't move. Otherwise IPC decitates how high the back of the chair can be and the depth of a sling back. There cannot be any hard contoured backs. Give me some mor...
