Can the back glides be replaced with something like tennis balls?

Pretty much any walker leg pieces will fit these. I replaced mine with a larger set of wheels, but there is no reason why you couldn't put on http://www.amazon.com/Drive-Medical-Walker-Tall-Extension/dp/B002VWJYO8/ or something similar along with glides, or tennis balls ar whatever else you choose.

No they are well designed. You remove the original rubber feet in the back and the glides just snap right in. My 90 yr old dad glides along carpets as well as hardwood floors with his walker now that I popped the new glides in.

No. Simply unscrew the back and slide it in and re-screw. You will need to go into the Naza assistant and turn on your pitch

Yes, you can take off the glides that come with it and put on ski slides. I don't recommend the Drive ski slides which I got because they fit too tightly. Try another brand.

If you can get the chair constructed, you could put on glides or rollers. The back of the chair is great from the front, but the reverse side is not finished as nicely. They closed the material construction of the back by "patching an additional oval cut out with a bias piece of the same fabric over seam which is ~1" from edge of chair back. Typically on a back it's constructed like a pillow case and on the under back seam it's hand sewn together so that the closing edge is not apparent.

I don't know, but would like to know if that is possible. My backboard arrived broken - only one basket keeps score.

The two I purchased for my son and grandson are still okay, so I cannot answer your question. Go to www.goballisticcase.com and check their accessories or try their customer service to see if any are available.

Yes, there is a replacement kit for the ball, which is easy to swap out. You can even swap it out with a softball replacement kit.

Yes, they came with the little plastic spacers that go directly over the post for a snug fit into the glide.

Yes, these can indeed be used as an exercise gliding disc. In fact, that's what I purchased these for. They work great! I use them on my carpet in my bedroom, the wood floors in my living room and the studio floors at the gym.

You can use the one from the old grips. If your old grips are rubber, you can "roll" them off.

No. They must be soft machine balls or nerf type balls. Regular balls will ruin the wheels and motor.

They have spinners and I wouldn't recommend them on glass. Deep scratches before found after playing a few games. Not sure about wood but expect scratching. On the plus side they shuffle easy.

I would contact the manufacturer and get replacements. Those beads are the bearings and help the bar move smoothly.

Yes you can. Follow this link: http://www.gaiam.com/balance-balls?intcmp=CLBB.balance-balls.20140730. Or purchase an exercise ball at Walmart or Target. Although the ball that came with the chair is thicker and sturdier than the one I purchased at Target.

Hi Frieda, thank you for your interest in Drive Medical! Yes, glide skis can be added to the back legs of this walker.

Hi Dorothy, Thanks for your interest in the Drive Medical Walker Ski Glides. There are a lot of factors that determine how this can be done. For instance, if you are able to remove the leg of the walker you can place something inside of it and push to get the old non-skid glides to pop out. You can also try plyers if you are able to get a grip on the existing glides. If neither of those are options you can always bring the walker to a pharmacy and ask if they can assist you.
