Together they built the first prototype for their solution: a zipper that had magnets glued to the bottom. This first prototype didn’t work but demonstrated that the way to create a better zipper would be using magnets.

Dave Lyndaker, neighbor and a mechanical designer joined Scott and Nancy when he heard about their challenge and soon started prototyping zippers.

Bryan is a former motocross champion and became tetraplegic in 2009, due to a riding accident. Being wheelchair-bound since the accident, Bryan found that most common wheelchairs were only prepared to be used in smooth terrain and were too heavy and expensive. In his own words, he "wanted something that we could load into the station wagon so it had to be light but still have the power”

Amit was left quadriplegic after a car crash in 1997 and his innovation resulted from wondering how and why the wheelchair was the only solution that allowed paraplegic people to move around. “I could not realize how come towards the end of the 20th century disabled people have no other solution other than a wheel chair”, he stated.
In 2001 Amit, then 30 years old, came up with the first ReWalk prototype in his garage. The first prototype was well succeeded, being the first of its kind to make paralyzed people walk.
