3 DO TRY THIS AT HOME Life TO the Extreme. Barry Muth dreams big and lives his life to be an example to others. He teaches sports to children with disabilities and helps them understand that they are no different because they use a chair. He proves his point by competing in the National Veterans Wheelchair Games every year, and doing amazing feats like hiking to base camp at Mt. Everest. Barry s OT recommended the JetStream Pro and once he tried it, he refused to use anything else. It has done wonders for his positioning and stability, and he uses it everyday. Barry is planning his next challenge an expedition to the North Pole via dog sled and cross-country skiing. T Taking on the 24/7 Job. Marci Steinle has one of the most demanding jobs on the planet. She s the mother of two active little boys. She is out with them all day, exploring and finding adventure. Marci has to be able to move freely and keep up with her energetic sons. She has no use for equipment that zaps her energy while pushing. The rigid, lightweight JetStream Pro lets her focus her energy on seizing the day. What s to stop her? Certainly not her equipment. Candace Cable has competed in 50 marathons, eight Paralympic Games both summer and winter, and has won the Boston Marathon six times. Candace was using a sling-back chair and over the years she developed a very curved posture. The moment she tried a JetStream Pro, she was able to sit up straight, fully supported. She immediately noticed she could breathe more deeply and fully. Candace put the JetStream Pro on her hand cycle and became the first woman with paraplegia to officially compete in the Iron Man World Championship Triathlon Competition in Kona, Hawaii.

4 THE ROHO s new JetStream Pro Back Support System was designed for guys like Bob Vogel, a T-10 complete para, who lives from one adventure to the next. Bob skies, rides horses, hang glides, does off-road biking, flies sail planes and is a rescue-rated scuba diver. LIGHTEST S B Created by and for active wheelchair users Bob needs his equipment to be extremely lightweight, sturdy and supportive. Bob uses a titanium chair equipped with a ROHO custom QUADTRO SELECT cushion and the lightweight carbon fiber JetStream Pro Low Back Support System. The rigid back gives him full pelvic support, phenomenal side-to-side balance, and greatly reduces shoulder and back pain associated with mobility. The JetStream Pro keeps his back healthy so he can get out and do all the things he loves to do. Todd Hargroder wasn t satisfied with industry standard options for solid back support. Posture was always important, but because his solid back was adjustable, it would loosen over time, creating noise and pinching skin. His old back support was bulky and heavy. Most importantly, it was uncomfortable, providing none of the rigid support necessary for an active C5-6 quadriplegic. Todd needed something that could keep up with him, so he set out to design something better. He created the JetStream Pro, a sleek, sexy carbon fiber back support that would improve the lives of active wheelchair users everywhere.

5 The Strong Silent Type The real measure of excellence in high performance mobility equipment is how little you are aware of it. Unlike standard back supports, the JetStream Pro quietly does its job leaving nothing for you to deal with. No bulk. No noise. No added weight. No loosening screws. No adjustments necessary. Watching Your Back The JetStream Pro helps keep your back healthy through the years. Some adjustable back supports slip out of adjustment, and your posture suffers. Your back can gradually conform to a misaligned backrest, but the JetStream Pro keeps your back healthy and maintains your posture over time. TRONGEST ACK SUPPORTEVER FOCUSED ENERGY If you re active, you expend a lot of energy. Your mobility package should consume as little of your energy as possible. The less energy needed for pushing, the more can be focused on living, working, playing and winning. The lightweight JetStream Pro makes mobility smoother, transfers easier, and challenges more accessible. KINDER TO SHOULDERS Your shoulders are your true source of mobility. Strain them, and you re sitting out on the sidelines. The JetStream Pro, at just 1.8 pounds, lightens your chair weight, and makes your mobility shoulder-friendly.
