Back Bone worked with the Handicare section of the FFVL (French Free Flight Federation) to develop a paragliding wheelchair for people with reduced mobility. For the past 12 years, by listening to users, we have been making improvements and adding new features.

The Handivol flying chair is made of aeronautical steel (4130 and 25CD4S) to give it strength and lightness. The Handivol flying chair is available in a disc brake version for two-seater use, and especially for learning to fly solo.

The brakes are independent so that steering is possible, and a locking system allows for a parking brake.

For ease of transport, the 2 rear wheels can be removed, locked by a push pin, the front wheel is locked by a seat clamp with safety, and the backrest folds down by removing 2 push pins as well.

A hinge on the seat back is locked by 2 push pins to facilitate rotations and transport.

The front wheel axle is mounted with ball stops, new modified fuse, the wheel axle is mounted on ball bearings.
The front fork is cushioned by bungee cords, and in the event of a particularly hard landing, a fuse on the front wheel bends to protect the rest of the chair. A spare fuse is included with the purchase and is part of the spare parts package.
