See the MachineSave the joints. Keep the country.
Arthritis doesn't have to be the reason the outdoor part of your life keeps shrinking. The TerrainHopper takes the pounding off your joints so the lease, the river, and the walk-the-property habit can stay on your calendar.
The machine carries the load.
Engineered for soft ground and uneven country — the same terrain that punishes arthritic joints is the terrain this machine was built for.
No pounding, no flare-up
Walking uneven ground is what lights up the knees, hips, and ankles. The machine carries the load so your joints don't.
Seated, supported, in control
Padded seat, thumb-throttle or joystick, no grip strength fight. Stay out as long as you want to without paying for it tomorrow.
Back on the ground you gave up
The deer lease, the back forty, the river bank, the grandkid's ballfield — the places arthritis quietly closed off, reopened.
A 10-second self-check.
You're living with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or another joint disease that's shortened the walks you used to make.
Hills, gravel, sand, and uneven ground end the day before you do.
You can transfer to a seat with or without help and operate a handlebar throttle or a joystick.
You want the outdoor range back without the two-day recovery price.

When you're ready, explore every funding path
Cobble it together.
There's no single program that hands a TerrainHopper to a rider. The families that get one build a personal funding campaign — a grant here, a state loan there, a fundraiser, a sponsor, a chunk of savings. It works. It just takes a plan.
Talk Through Your Plan- 01
Stack the sources
Almost nobody pays for a TerrainHopper with a single check. The riders who get one usually combine a grant, a state loan, a fundraiser, and a family contribution. Plan for three to five sources, not one.
- 02
Start with what's closest
Apply to a state assistive-tech loan and one or two grants first — those have the longest timelines. Then open a fundraiser to close the gap once you know the number.
- 03
Tell one honest story
A short video, a few photos, and the specific outdoor thing you want back. People don't fund a wheelchair — they fund a grandfather back in the deer woods, a mom back at the lake, a kid back on the trail.
- 04
Ask the rooms you're already in
Church, hunting club, VFW, neighborhood, employer, Ducks Unlimited or NWTF chapter, your kids' school. Local money moves faster than national grants.
What worked for you?
We sell machines. You and your family have actually lived Arthritis — the appointments, the denials, the grant forms, the fundraiser that finally broke open, the local club that wrote the check nobody saw coming. That's knowledge we don't have and can't fake.
If you've put together funding for adaptive equipment — yours, a loved one's, anybody's — tell us how. We'll fold what you share into the advice we give the next Arthritis family that lands on this page.
Share What Worked- · Which grant, loan, or program actually came through for you?
- · Which ones were a dead end — so we can stop sending people there?
- · What did your fundraiser look like? What made it work?
- · Any local source — church, club, employer, foundation — most families miss?
- · What do you wish someone had told you on day one?
We'll listen more than we talk.
