@@ryanschultz9037 We, the sabreistes of 🇪🇪 used to call epeė "õngitsemine", which kind of means "fishing-sport" in our language. Ya know: these fishing-rods, spinnings... But may-be I'm cruel (again! 😭); I am soo sorry. 🙏

Im sure the epee fencers felt more comfortable watching this than any other sabre point 😂
As a saber fencer, I still don't understand why epee isn't called OnlyFleche

@@ryanschultz9037 Lol
😂😂😂😂
I love how even Milenchev feels the need to personally congratulate both of them
Longer touches in sabre take a lot out of you, but they're just so fun. You come out with a lot more respect for your opponent.
What in the epee did I just watch 😂
Lol
you can hear the french team in the background 'aller manon c'est bien', 'aller manon aller'
what does that mean
@@kevinzhou7442 come on manon this is good, come on manon come on - it's a bit hard to translate because french has different sayings to english.
Milenchev is such a cool guy.
Probably a world record if this was épée but for the quickest hit ever
THATS A P YELLOWWWWWWW 😨 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA WATCHING THIS AS A SABREUER FEELS SO WRONG BUT WATCHING THIS AS AN EPEEIST FEELS SO RIGHT HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
ikr?
I have never seen that parry 4 from point on line before that happens at 0:30.
Some risky moves, but it allowed a beautiful continuation.
And yet somehow this lasted for a shorter amount of time than epée
This is an example of why the women’s Saber game seems more interesting than the men’s at this time.
Maybe we should count the time still?
Every day we stray further from speeeed
We can cut in epee now?! Does that mean in sabre I can cross my feet? Nope got a $1000 fine.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Don't saberests just get yellow/red card?
God saber fencers are so spoiled this is normal for epee
the referee took a shower and ate his dinner during the point
get rid of the center game and many touches will be like this
We need passivity in sabre too smh
It exists, but it is so rare, it never happened, here it almost did.
Passivity rules apply to all weapons, not just epee. It just only happens in epee so far (very rarely in foil)
Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!
That's why epee fencing is more realistic than sabre fencing. 😅
Makes you wonder if they would have actually called passivity since they dont track the time
