The Pride Jazzy is a new technology chair that introduces a highly maneuverable, versatile and stylish chair into the market. This series includes a great number of seating systems available in different configurations depending on individual requirements. A common base system easily maneuvers over obstacles such as short curbs and uneven terrain.
The unique suspension developed by Pride for this chair, called the Active-Trac suspension, includes front and rear anti-tip wheels and a center set of drive wheels which control both the speed and steering of the chair. This center wheel steering control enables the chair to quite literally spin on a dime.
