Destreza 04 - Fencing of Spain vs Italy Pacheco's New Science Estrechar (Narrowing) (p. 450-454) #4 The Passata Sotto (p. 587-589) Line in Cross (p. 447- 450)
the point is that a reckless/uneducated opponent (so a newbie fencer or a drunkard with a club) is likely to charge and try to hit on any level they can. thuspassata sotto fleche is a combination worth studying and its good to learn how to defend against it. I like how he reasserts that its the one who has studied their style more has the advantage
Why did you choose to demonstrate the forward passata sotto with a fleche instead of a lunge? I've never seen reference to it being done in this fashion.
