Welcome From Facebook | Extreme Motus
Glad you found us from Facebook
If you’ve been watching Sam & Ryan’s adventures and wondering whether the wheelchair you’ve seen rolling through skateparks, rivers, and national parks could work for someone in your life — this is the page that answers that.
30 years of friendship · 6 years of adventures · one wheelchair that changed everything
Sam and Ryan have been friends since high school. Sam was born with cerebral palsy. Ryan has a habit of dragging him into stuff that should probably scare both of them.
How it started. 1997, Halloween, the year the friendship got loud.
How it’s going. Skateparks, beaches, rivers, snow. The chair changed the map.
What you don’t see on camera. A real friendship, in front of audiences and behind them.
In 2019, Sam and Ryan discovered the Extreme Motus all-terrain wheelchair. Suddenly the places they couldn’t go together — beaches, trails, snow, rivers, skateparks — were on the table. They started filming the adventures because they thought it was funny. Turns out a lot of other people thought so too.

Two minutes that show what the Motus actually does on real terrain. If a picture’s worth a thousand words, this video saves you about ten pages of brochure.

The Extreme Motus All-Terrain Wheelchair is a manual three-wheeled chair with oversized balloon tires. It rolls over sand, gravel, rocks, grass, and snow — and it floats in water. Built by hand in Utah.
- 55 lbs. Folds into any SUV in seconds.
- Soft balloon tires act as natural suspension on rough terrain.
- Mountain-bike disc brakes at each rear wheel, plus parking brakes on the handlebar.
- Adjustable handlebar fits any caregiver height.
- Floats. Push straight into a lake or pool.
We accept HSA & FSA. We work with Affirm and Klarna for monthly payments. Our Grants Finder helps families locate funding — most owners pay a fraction of full price out of pocket.

We wrote a book
“Sam & Ryan Visit the Moon” is the first in a children’s series based on the real Sam and Ryan. Younger versions of them look up at the moon through a telescope, decide the only way to know what it’s like up there is to go themselves — and strap rockets to Sam’s wheelchair.
It’s silly. It’s about curiosity and friendship and not letting a wheelchair decide what’s possible. It’s dedicated to Ryan’s father.
Proceeds from every copy sold go to Outdoor Access Project — a nonprofit working to make the outdoors accessible to more people.
You’re not the first person wondering if this would work for your family
“My son hasn’t been on a real hike in his life. Last weekend we made it to a waterfall together. I’ll never forget that day.”
“Bought it for my husband after his stroke. We’ve taken it to the beach, the mountains, and my mother-in-law’s house. It changed every family event we go to.”
“I was sure it’d be a gimmick that ended up in the garage. It’s been on five trips this year. My only complaint is that I didn’t buy it sooner.”
There are also Motus owners all over the U.S., Canada, the UK, and Australia who’ll let you see one in person before you ever request a demo.

The best way to decide is to see it
Demos are free. We bring the chair to you when we can, host community demo days, and partner with nonprofits and parks across the country. Tell us where you are — we’ll figure out the rest.
