If you are a newcomer to walking with a rollator, you should better ask someone to help when going outdoors for the first time.
Going outdoors with a rollator for the first time is a big step, both mentally and physically. Knowing how to do it handy and in a safe way will make the learning process less complicated.
You immediately feel the difference when you walk with this new rollator with pneumatic tires. The Rollz Motion Performance hardly vibrates, not even when you walk over a square with boulders.
There is a misconception that only old people or people with a disability need mobility support. But nowadays you can also see lots of young people using canes, rollators or wheelchairs.
A simple door can become an obstacle if the one passing through it uses a walker or a wheelchair. The ‘open, pass, close’ steps should be thought about in advance so that you do not get stuck in the process of passing through doorways.

Using a rollator over curbs of only a few centimeters high can already provide a real challenge for someone. The front wheels will stop against it and you won’t be able to go any further. Your next move will be decisive on how smooth the climbing will go.
The summer is coming and the city breaks, holidays and travels are booked. If you use a rollator or a wheelchair in your daily life than you will take it with you as well. But travelling with a walking aid requires some extra precautionary measures.
