  • Simply because the good fencers are already trained to have their hand out of the way, they've completely broken the instinct to block with their free hand. Forcing new fencers to keep their off hand high and out of the way is the best way to quickly break that habit.

  • I just started fencing today, for the first time, and I have to say, It's a lot of fun, I really like it ^^

  • @Tippet76 sportsmanships for losers, if you tell someone to stop celebrating youre just a buzzkill

  • @lew00t I've always had a problem with that. I've kept my hand high form the first time I ever fenced, but I still occasionally move it in front of me without even realizing it.

  • @lew00t Good advice :)

  • gosh when you get to this high level the blades look like long liquorice sticks flopping all over the place

  • greatest final ever

  • @wavewalker57 YES! FEAR US!! lol

  • @presbarkeep Their jackets register hits electronically. The wire is part of the scoring system. They're actually not much of an issue to the fencer, though. They don't pull by any noticeable amount.

  • whats the wire attached to their waiste

  • @CameraMan4000 Read the title: INDIVIDUAL

  • @CameraMan4000 A bit late to answer but still, :p I guess they might be dueling for who goes to the final, seeing as there was an italian finishing second as well.
