    I agree very inspiring, a refreshing change from most of the vids on here focusing on countries in crisis, which usually contain allied troops shooting or blowing up Afghans and Iraqis, keep up the good work!God Bless.

    Inspiring to see some good realities. This is part of the effort to “win the peace” and I applaud it.

    I’ve sometimes given lessons to non-chair fencers, just so they can see how fast they have to be.

    I believe this is better quality fencing. Since these fencers can’t just move backwards and forwards along the piste, they have to parry in order to prevent their opponents from attacking and they can’t prepare - they just have to go for it!
    Thanks for putting this up :)

    This is legit. I would be cautious around these guys, and I have my legs.

    now, give them prosthetics and they’d own everyone on the piste. their bladework is phenomenal!

    Foil priority, is a thrust. Once the sword is extended 90% or so (depends on judge) the player has proiority

    I could imagine that their blade work is amazing… hard to tell from here

    Also, how is priority decided for foil? And is there Sabre chair fencing?

    It would be cool if they could move closer to in fight, each would have a lever to move in and back to the normal distance,of course I’d still get beat trying to fence one of these guys. lol.

    that looks very strange but hey if i were ever confined to a wheelchair then i would definitely continue fencing even if it were wheelchair fencing

    lol, its sad how ppl who are confined to wheelchairs are limited with what they can do. but this is just amazing, this is probably really hard cuz u cant move. they could proboably own us all is they had their legs lmao. wheelchair ppl own!!

    I’m impressed by this as it’s all down to “parry/riposte”- no advance or retreat!

    Sensational!

    What make this really hardcore is the fact they can’t retreat like a strap-match. And above all this was an amazing match.
