LEGENDGYM continues to actively develop and expand its line of equipment designed for adaptive sports. In September, a new state-of-the-art fencing platform (ramp) for wheelchair fencing was installed at the “Egalite” Fencing Club.
Founded in 2011, the Egalite Fencing Club has been promoting and developing this noble sport for many years. The club regularly hosts training sessions, competitions, and runs the “Fencing School for Adults” project, which presents fencing as an engaging alternative to traditional fitness activities.
The installation of specialized equipment from LEGENDGYM provides comfortable conditions for athletes with limited mobility and makes fencing more accessible to everyone interested in the sport.

Modern Wheelchair Fencing Platform PN-2
LEGENDGYM has developed a specialized PN-2 platform designed for training and competitions of wheelchair fencers. This professional equipment ensures a safe and convenient training environment for athletes with musculoskeletal impairments.
The construction fully complies with the standards of the International Wheelchair and Amputee Sports Federation (IWAS) and offers a high level of functionality.
The platform allows users to:
- quickly install and securely fix two fencing wheelchairs;
- adjust the setup depending on the athlete’s dominant arm (right or left);
- choose between four wheelchair positioning options;
- significantly speed up the preparation and conduct of competitions while reducing the need for technical staff.
For the convenience of athletes and coaches, the side-switching system is designed for ease of use — the support tube can be rotated at a –45° angle without moving the entire platform. This makes setup fast, efficient, and comfortable.
A Contribution to the Development of Adaptive Sports
The installation of the LEGENDGYM platform at the Egalite Fencing Club in Minsk marks an important step in promoting adaptive fencing in Belarus. Now wheelchair athletes have equal opportunities for full-fledged training and participation in competitions.
This project not only broadens access to sports but also fosters the growth of an inclusive sporting environment where everyone can realize their potential, regardless of physical limitations.
