Thanks Maarten! Will do that and next time we meet you will have an even better sparring experience :)

Haha thanks bud. This bizz is stiff 😂

Thanks mate! There is surely a hema club nearby :)

Irresistible 🥹😍

You are the sword, the edge is only an extension of your arm and mind

You want to find out? Come to our club? Or invite me in your club 😊

No mercy for soy drinks! At least for their vessels 🤣

Thank you. I like this bout as well. I want to sparr Marten again just to see the adaptations I could make

freut mich zu hören Champion! <3

Danke! Freut mich zu hören :)

🤙Danke Baby! Ich nimm auch die Show auf der schwarzen Couch 😂😂

Haha danke für den Kommentar! Durchdringend Zweideutig 😂👏🏽

gerne wieder :) ihr könnt mir auch jederzeit anregungen geben fürs nächste Gathering!

Gern. Es hat auch echt Spaß gemacht. Ich hoffe euch auch 👌🏾

Ich verstehe die Frage ned ^^

@@ochs-hema ... weil sie in etwa beide das gleiche Tatoo auf dem Arm haben 😉

What do you mean? 😅

Thanks. I try in Zufechten Winden. Works pretty good now.

Thanks for your two compliments! I hope you enjoy the other ones as well. <3 do you practice HEMA?

@@ochs-hema I do! My school trains KDF. I just started last June and I'm going to my first tournament in a few weeks!

Whoop whoop! Congratulations you took one of the best decisions in life 😊😂 I wish you a lot of fun in the tournament. Is it open or ladies longsword?

@@moxskeleton do you plan to take some videos from your bouts? It’s vastly helpful to improve

@@ochs-hema I do! I have a few now uploaded on my channel and those of my friends. I can definitely see improvement but my early ones are so hard to watch. My instructors are big on filming

Hm Alex there is much more happening in the subtext. So Simon’s stance and structure in general is one of the cleanest in hema. Fast and protected zufechten and many more details adding up to a exceptional performance. 1:00 and 1:10 can’t show his full potential but other situations can. I watched a tournament where Simon was in finals with arto fama. It was split decision. But action are wiser than words. If you have the chance to fight with Simon do it :)

@@JohnyB1989 enjoyed watching the rest of his exchanges, but afterblowing through hand slices is a significant issue in LS and messer

Absolutely

I am still in love after 7years

Left handed opponents are just not usual und the right Ochs to block the normal oberhau of lefthanders is in full gear hard to achieve. In this bout Björn leaves often his hands open or stays too long in exposed position so Arthur can find quick his nearest target.

Yes! This what I mean with worldclass. Martian Fabian said it already two years ago. This scene proofs it. The fight iq, analysis and decision making is top tier!

Yes Simon was feinting left right in zufechten and I was going with it to block it which succeeded. Then the follow ups were just to keep him busy. I was pretty drained in that fight already as you can see on the sweat soaked Fencing-Jacket. In the end I was happy not to get hit which can be very demanding against Simon 😅 But yes his awareness and Fight IQ is just off the roof in this scene! Absolutely magnificent.

@@ochs-hema I’m not saying your strikes were bad in any way my friend :) “thrashing about” was maybe an unfair way to phrase it, it’s clear you’re trying to make a structured attack, finding yourself being blocked and then moving on to the next one - it’s quite impressive actually the speed with which you move through your strikes. Hope you get what I mean 👍

ok nice.

Yes it binds and hampers the enemy. And with that Simon forces a mistake from him. But I rarely see someone using this technique so good.

@@ochs-hema I tried to get it to work, but it is very dependend on the opponent. If someone has Schnappen down, the Verkehrer very easy to counter. And for a lot of people Schnappen comes quite intuitive.

@@petritzkythey it worked here was: Erdem Elbows were connected to his body. So his arms were bend. so he could not get out of the triangle of simon by bending arms and footwork. retreating only by footwork against simon does not work here.

Indeed!

Thank you! Pleased to hear that. Don’t forget to tell your friends 😉☺️

There was a hit?

@@ochs-hema granted, there wasn't, I had seen it wrongly the first time

Mit Körperwaffen meinst du Treten, Ellenbogen, Knie? :)

@@ochs-hema genau, die ganze Nahkampf Palette. 👍

@@olafjagel5134 ja klar! Du könntest auch die parierstange des Schwerts ins Gesicht treiben (sehr unbeugsam ^^) oder den Knauf einfallen lassen. Ellenbogen macht sich immer gut 👍 Beim Fechten schließe ich das aus mit meinen Partner:innen da ich wenn dann Hebel-Techniken mit den Schwertern vollführen möchte.

Thank you! 🤩

Yes Sir! 🫡

That’s true and this developed a lot. There is an older video Simon vs. Lukas on this channel where he used hanging too defensive. Nowadays he adopted this preference and added this great wide stance with hip movement.

Thanks buddy! Feels good to hear :)

My instructor Andrzej definitely is one ! Excellent physical condition, great understanding and application of the fencing fundamentals (timing, distance, footwork etc) and he has a huge technical repertoire. He's a person that I believe deserves more recognition. Also, Gabriel Tardio for similar reasons !

@@frenchgalloglass5204 then make a video about your instructor buddy! <3

@@ochs-hema maybe after this weekend's tournament 😉

@@frenchgalloglass5204 i wish good luck, clean twers, new friends and an awesome bold beer afterwards! <3

Martin Fabian, both excellent fencer and teacher!

thanks Michael. I am honored.

what makes it the best work yet?

​@@JohnyB1989Because on one hand, it's just casual sparring: there's no obsession with point scoring by either fencer, and the more lighthearted voice over adds to the fun. At the same time, Erdem's commentary does both the fencers and the sport credit by highlighting some excellent technique. So we have a good fight to watch, get to have some relevant context thrown in at appropriate times, and it's presented in a way that makes you feel like you're watching it with friends. It's great. It also avoids the "Captain Obvious" syndrome in other commentaries. Other sparring commentary: "The blue fighter has his point forward. Now he is in vom tag." Ochs: "SO MUCH STRUCTURE! SO STRONG! YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING AGAINST THAT!"

@@michaelduchetta6470it would be a pleasure to have a beer with you watching some good fencing!

@@ochs-hemaIt's a small community and I'll get around to visiting München one day!

Thx Nico. Next cutting event you should join! 😍

@@ochs-hema I'm in mate

Yes would be epic
