Keeping an eye on Ti

Dear TiLite Enthusiast

Welcome to TiLite's September 2008 newsletter. In this issue, we tell you about the newest addition to our Aero line of aluminum chairs, the TiLite Aero R, Paralympians Chelsea McClammer and Mark Zupan, updated Order Forms, and the upcoming Z10.   Enjoy! 

Z10

Everything we’ve learned during our first decade in business.  Only 110 will be built.  www.1of110.com

Aero R

Make sure your first choice is to have a choice.

Every TiLite is the inspired intersection of insightful engineering, stylish design and spirited performance. The TiLite Aero R is no exception.  From the advanced Tru-Fit Component System to its clean, simple design and high end performance options, if there is a smarter way to make a manual wheelchair move, TiLite engineers are all over it.  We have no desire to take any shortcuts and neither will you.

The TiLite Aero R delivers substantial portions of style, performance, coolness and value.  It is ideal for a new, active user who needs a chair that can change with their needs but does not give up performance to do so. 

Aero R Features:

  • 1” 6061 T6 Aluminum Frame
  • “Tru-Fit” System Reduces Frame Holes for Enhanced Durability and a Clean Profile
  • Adjustable Bullet Caster Housing Reduces Weight and Adds Style

Chelsea McClammer

At the age of 14, Chelsea is the youngest member of the 2008 U.S. Paralympic Team. She qualified for the Paralympics in the women’s 800 meter in July with a time of 2:09.32, a personal best. Since then her performance in the 800 meter has been nothing short of remarkable. In her first heat at the Bird’s Nest in Beijing, China in front of a stadium filled to capacity, Chelsea shattered her personal best by 12 seconds and qualified for the finals.  On Saturday, September 13th in front of another packed crowd at the Bird’s Nest, Chelsea again set a personal best by shaving off an additional 6 seconds from the 1.57 time she set just the night before! 

Because Chelsea’s home is in Benton City, Washington, just down the Yakima River from TiLite, everyone here has taken a special interest in watching her grow into an outstanding young woman and athlete. We are all proud of her accomplishments and are honored to share in her successes. 

Congratulations Chelsea! 
We look forward to seeing you at the London Paralympics in 2012.

Mark Zupan

Mark Zupan's goal for the 2008 Paralympics Games, like that of many of his teammates, is to win gold.  But his aspirations go one step further - he doesn't want the U.S. simply to beat the competition, he wants to dominate the competition.

On Tuesday, September 16, the U.S. team did just that by beating Australia 53-44 to win gold and finish as the most dominant team at the 2008 Beijing Paralympics.  TiLite congratulates Mark and the entire U.S. team for their outstanding performances to bring home the gold!

Dear Roger, Lisa and Mala,

Thank you for the wonderful wheelchair that you tried so hard to get.  I love the light on the little wheels, I think they are soooo BLINGALICIOUS !!!!!!  I can go really, really fast at the park and on the grass.  I love the color of the wheelchair parts.  It’s both my mom’s and my favorite color.  I am sooo thankful!

LOVE  SEPHRA
