That's cool!  I never heard of that sport be adapted.

Subject: [QUAD-L] Wheelchair Fencing

 

Hi, have any of you ever tried Wheelchair Fencing? I went last night in
Mesa.

Pretty interesting. You pull your chair into these blocks so you don't move
around and it keeps you at the correct angle.

I strapped the foil to my hand and could move it around pretty well. But
when I tried to thrust it forward the front would dip down from the weight.

Once I got my shoulder into a good position I could do it ok, just not very
fast reflexes. I need a little more strength in that area.

Pretty fun.

Greg
