3. Why do we need 2 weapon or 2 body wires? Can we get only 1 weapon now?
Fencing competition rules mandate that all fencers have two weapons and two body wires. This prevents penalties, as a spare must be readily available at the piste in case of equipment failure.
You can begin with a single weapon to learn, understand, and get familiar with it for practice. Many fencers opt to purchase a higher-grade weapon as they advance towards competition.
4. Will cost of 2nd weapon be same if I buy the next time? Will it be available?
Your school's affiliation to our fencing club (SportivA Fencing) grants you exclusive discounted pricing on these packages. Prices for future individual purchases, is subject to changes due to changes in commodity (metal) and market fluctuations.
5. Can we change the size of clothing if it doesn’t fit us when we collect?
Yes. If the clothing doesn't fit when you collect it, an exchange for the correct size can be done then. It is advisable to try on the clothing at collection. You will have peace of mind when buying from OneUltra since our fencing gear is generally covered by a one-month UltraCares warranty.
6. What is the different between the Junior Rollbag and Weapon Carry Bag? Can I get both bags?
Both the Junior Rollbag and the Weapon Carry Bag are designed to fit all standard fencing equipment. The Junior Rollbag is equipped with wheels, allowing for effortless transport, particularly when traveling longer distances. The Weapon Carry Bag is a more portable option for carrying over the shoulder, especially up the stairs.
It is recommended for fencers to purchase both bags. The Carry Bag is ideal when fencers carry lighter equipment to training, while the Rollbag handles full equipment needs.
