#243 The Powerchair Mobilized Wheelchair Revolution with Pat George

In this episode, we dive into the inspiring journey of Pat George, founder of Mobility Outdoors. After witnessing the challenges faced by powerchair users—such as inadequate service support for high-cost equipment and limited mobility options—Pat took matters into his own hands. He launched Mobility Outdoors, a company dedicated to revolutionizing mobility solutions with customized, all-terrain motorized wheelchairs.

Pat shares how his team fills critical gaps in the industry, providing 24-hour technician house calls, preventative maintenance, and cutting-edge mobility options designed for outdoor enthusiasts, athletes, and adventurers. Whether it's navigating hiking trails, sandy beaches, or snowy terrains, Pat’s innovative designs empower SCI individuals to reclaim their independence and embrace an active lifestyle with special customization of their chairs at any time.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone in the spinal cord injury community for invaluable power chair or motorized wheelchair tips or for those seeking high-performance mobility solutions. Stay tuned.
