Ride Java Cushion for wheelchairs

The patented Java Cushion contour works by redistributing the forces of pressure and shear away from high risk areas, while selectively applying the forces to areas more tolerant. The design helps decrease long-term skin risk and aids in sitting stability for improved functional performance. The Java Cushion is most effective when coupled with a Ride back support to aid in postural support.

• MANAGES HEAT AND MOISTURE

  A vented base design, contoured top foam, and a breathable spacer mesh fabric cover work together to help keep skin cool and dry.

• NEEDS NO FIT-ESSENTIAL MAINTENANCE

  The Java Cushion offers enhanced sitting performance without the need for regular fit-essential maintenance — unlike the ongoing adjustment required to maintain fluid/air volumes in other cushions.

• WEIGHS ABOUT 30% LESS THAN COMPETITIVE CUSHIONS

  Enjoy significantly lighter cushion weight along with the possibility of enhanced mobility. For example, a 16 x 16” Java Cushion weighs 2.3 lbs, as compared to a 16 x 16” air cushion, weighing in at 3.9 lbs.

• ADJUSTS AND ADAPTS

  The skin protection qualities of the Java Cushion can be adjusted through the use of Ride CAM® wedges and well inserts to adapt to change.

• CLEANS EASILY

  The Java Cushion cover is machine washable and the inner incontinent cover and base can be sanitized.

• AVAILABLE WIDTH/DEPTH MODIFICATIONS

  It’s never been easier to modify the Java Cushion. Width and depth modifications to the Java Cushion are available.

Ride Java Cushion Buyer’s Guide

The Ride Java Cushion is a wheelchair seat cushion engineered to provide superior skin protection, postural control, and comfort. Designed for users with moderate to high risk of skin breakdown, the Ride Java features a contoured design that helps stabilize the pelvis and optimize pressure distribution.

Ride Java Cushion Anatomically Contoured Base

The Ride Java Cushion includes a carefully sculpted base that supports the pelvis and thighs. Its contours help maintain a neutral alignment of the hips and spine, reducing the risk of postural collapse and associated pressure injuries.

Skin Protection and Pressure Management

The Java Ride Cushion minimizes skin risk by redistributing pressure away from bony prominences. Its low-shear, breathable cover and firm base work together to reduce heat buildup and moisture retention, which are contributing factors to skin breakdown.

Ride Java Wheelchair Seat Cushion Lightweight and Stable Design

Weighing less than many traditional foam or gel cushions, the Java wheelchair cushion is easy to transport and does not compromise durability or performance. Its stable seating surface promotes confident transfers and reduces fatigue over long periods of sitting.

Adjustable Fit with Ride CAM Wedges

Users can fine-tune the Ride Java Cushion fit using optional Ride CAM wedges, which allow for subtle adjustments in pelvic tilt and support. This customization enhances user comfort and optimizes the seated posture.

Durable and Easy-to-Clean Materials

The wheelchair seat cushion is made from high-resilience foam and a water-resistant cover, ensuring durability and easy maintenance. The cover is machine-washable and designed to maintain its shape and function over time.

Ride Java Cushion Compatibility with Wheelchair Systems

The cushion integrates seamlessly with most manual and power wheelchair seating systems. Its flat bottom ensures compatibility with standard sling or solid seat bases, and its non-slip surface prevents sliding during transfers or movement.

Size Options and Customization

Available in a wide range of widths and depths, the wheelchair seat cushion supports users with varying body sizes and clinical needs. Ride also offers custom modifications for unique positioning challenges or asymmetries.

Ride Java Cushion Review

The Ride Java Cushion is praised for its durable construction, precise support, and ability to reduce skin injury risk. Clinicians and users alike recognize it as a high-performing option for those needing stability, skin protection, and long-term comfort.
