  • wow thats a happy coach, but VERY nice touch, really good for a lebel (s.p.) touch.

  • That's actually his brother Andrew. Your right though, he was very happy. :)

  • you spoiled the ending!

  • Sorry dude! :) Its a good point though. I was debating with myself as to whether I should take the score out of the description. I have now so I won't spoil the ending for anybody else. :)

  • good fencers, but the guy on the right needs to think more..

    he did the same action 5 times (i think) in a row. beevers did a smart thing by showing simultaneous but then doing a "superb riposte". but all in all, not bad.

  • Yeah, Mansour used that same attacking action a lot during the final. Still, he's consistently in the top 4 in the British rankings so he's doing somthing right.

  • Just because you don't understand how it works, does not make it queer.

    You might think that rugby players were queer for 'hugging' in the scrums--they would probably disagree though.

  • at :58 seconds you can see the the fencer on the left brought his off arm around to block the flick.

  • Wow I can't tell what's going on.

  • I remember fencing Mansour a couple of years back in the Bristol open. It was the opening bout and I managed to get the first hit on him with a stop hit. My triumph lasted a full 10 seconds. Thats how long it took him to destroy me 5-1.

  • james trains my 6yr old and has great amounts of patience and a great way of talking to him, i applaud him in bringing the sport to the kids and making it available to the general public.

  • james trains my 6 yr old son and is fantatic and very patient, i applaud him in his work bringing the sport to the kids and putting so much hard work into it for them

  • that is killing their foils

  • What are you talking about? Were you in the habit of not parrying attacks because they looked like they were going to hit your bib and not your target?

  • great vid, it looks like a movie ending :)

  • Hahaha have you actually ever fenced mansour?? Hardly brainless, plus it took a rather suspicious back arm to pull him in for the primé.
