From Paralympic sit-skis to sovereign mobility manufacturing

i3D Mobility built custom carbon fibre sit-skis for Paralympians and military veterans. With UNSW, the University of Adelaide, Defence Trailblazer and local SMEs, we took them from concept design to the Winter Paralympics in Italy, with over 1,000 km raced on snow. The same process now drives our custom wheelchairs. It shows that Australia designs and builds world-class adaptive equipment at home. We thank every sponsor, supporter and subject matter expert who made this work happen.
