About the solution
Fertig stayed back at the house so he wouldn’t be a burden while everyone played near the water. Frustration fueled his desire to invent a new, lightweight, manageable sand wheelchair. He enlisted help from his son, Chris, a marine engineer for Maersk Line Ltd. After 2½ years and four prototypes, they developed Sand Rider.
Sand Rider looks similar to a jogging stroller. It has two 19-inch wheels in the back and a 12-inch wheel in front. It weighs about 50 pounds and has polyurethane wheels which make it roll easily over soft sand.
