Which assistive device would urgently need to be invented and/or improved?
Antonio Hoempler: My high wheelchair for festivals, with which I am as tall as my actual height when sitting (187cm).
What has been your biggest challenge so far that you have mastered – and what has helped you?
Antonio Hoempler: Inventing and mastering a sports discipline. Downhill skateboarding while sitting. This required years of training, and development of the sports equipment with the help of many tinkerers and friends. In 2020 I then drove a professional race track at the KNK Longboardcamp.
If nothing was impossible: Who would you like to meet one day and why?
Antonio Hoempler: A weekend at the Fusion festival with Gregor Gysi :)
What was your best REHACARE experience?
Antonio Hoempler: Test driving all the handbikes.
