Zipper handcycle was HOC3's answer when the market asked us for a handcycle for kids. The requirements were to create a package that is lightweight for ease of transportation, highly adjustable, easy to ride, and last the rider for many years to come. On top of that, the key factor was that it had to be inexpensive. Staying true to our roots we met every one of those needs and added some of the HOC flair. Race inspired looks, quality CNC aluminum adjusters, and a sturdy powder-coated frame. The Zipper features 10 inches of fore and aft seating adjustment, ±3 inches of seat height front and rear (can be adjusted separately for dump angle), 60 degrees of back angle adjustment, and 8 inches of footrest adjustment. The Zipper is the total package to get kids started handcycling and keep them handcycling for years!

The Glide bi-ski is the 3rd installment in the HOC2 ski lineup. This time the consumers asked us to take the primitive bi-ski designs in existence and step it up a notch... or two. We did, and the HOC2 Glide is the result. We started at the skis and engineered up. In traditional HOC style the ski mounts incorporate our DFS (Dynamic Flex System) allowing the ski to flex freely and remain in contact with the snow and reduce breakage. A low profile articulating ski mount keeps the center of mass low and also fully adjustable front and rear. The suspension is fully tunable for all sizes of skiers and incorporates hardened stainless steel mounts. The load assist system is truly the highlight of this ski. With the flick of a lever the system is ready in the load position. Gas springs open the frame up to chair lift height. When ready to off-load, the skier simply returns the lever to the closed position. During off-loading, gravity will help automatically return to the Glide to the skiing position. The adjustable footrest and backrest accommodate riders of all shapes and sizes. This is the ultimate bi-ski, outfit it with a set of our fixed outriggers or even make the next step in to the monoski world with our monoski interface and move to a single ski in minutes!

In 2012 HOC3 was asked to bring a basketball wheelchair to market. The design criteria was such that it had to perform at the pro level while withstanding pro level abuse, yet be inexpensive and completely adjustable for every player. The HOC3 Basketball chair met all of these and played exceptionally by players of all levels. The chromoly construction kept costs down and strength up. Without the need to heat treat the frames post welding and utilizing our patented replaceable bumper, the HOC3 Basketball wheelchair literally put a hurting on every aluminum framed wheelchair on the court.
In 2015 HOC3 chose to discontinue the Basketball wheelchair to focus on handcycles. It was a tough decision, but in order to allow more growth within the company and develop new, cutting edge product for a larger market. Maybe we will revisit basketball wheelchairs in the future, only time will tell!

Hands on Concepts designed the N.R. Corsa binding to be the ultimate monoski binding. Unknown to many, the N.R. stands for No Release and Corsa means “race” in Italian. With traditional high DIN bindings being difficult to acquire, HOC felt the need to offer a better solution. The first key design feature of this binding system is that it will only release with a special tool meaning that no matter what type of fall or situation you encounter the ski will not separate from the rig unless you want it to. Another key design feature is HOC’s Dynamic Flex System (DFS) that allows the ski to flex freely over the terrain and keep the edge in contact with the snow for greater control and reduced likelihood of breakage. Due to the large cost and limited demand for these bindings they were discontinued in 2014.
