yuki ota rules

[luvinwafflez]

these men are so fast and so refined, i feel badly for sanzo, he could have done more in 2008 if it weren't for his pains

[bronxbomber1923]

I love the instinct that any foilist has, novice or expert ,to bend their blade almost immediately after a hault.

@bronxbomber1923 hehe. I do it very often after halt as well. but i don't want to O_o

Ota is possibly my favorite foil fencer, maybe not well known as Joppich or Sanzo, but for everything he did during the Olympic tournament, he's become a foilist I enjoy watching (and trying to learn from). He's a gentleman, always clean, never loses his guard and his handwork is really precise and fast

Sanzo fences like a turtle.

[CyrusofChaos]

he had hand pain and foot pain in recent years so to compensate it looks like he is giving himself permanent back pain...

[flickeringlamppost]

@CyrusofChaos that sucks, that is why he lost this bout, he couldn't move at much as he needed to

[Vesivian]

@CyrusofChaos cake :)
