@@robinhu2563Alexander Choupenitch, Nzinga Prescod, Marcus Mepstead, Alex (tho that was years ago). While it is an honor to fence people like that, it's also a bit frustrating to get ground into dust after you think you got better.
Nzinga and Marcus are in NY a lot which is where I am. Alex was at a tournament and Choupenitch happened to be by my club in Brooklyn for the day as he was passing through the US so I took the chance when it presented itself. One of the great things about fencing as a sport is that it's relatively easier to meet some of the top people and they're usually willing to fence you.
sincere question. My son is interested in learning fencing but I am wondering - is fencing dangerous? *edit:* Perhaps I should have mentioned, that a Korean acquaintance from church told us that when he was learning Kendo (Japanese sword fighting) and his back would be covered with red, painful welts after practice. And this, I think, was using bamboo swords!!
You’re son should be dubs as long as he follows the rules and uses the proper equipment. Other than that, the only way you could get hurt is if something out of the ordinary happens or your opponent doesn’t obey the rules.
It can sometimes, but it shouldn't. A hit only requires about 500 grammes (about a pound) of force and the tip only has to be depressed a couple of mm. A skilled fencer will score a hit with quite a delicate touch from only just in range. However, when beginners fight, it is less subtle. I got a cracked rib once when my opponent's foil failed to bend. The kit they're wearing is "puncture proof" in case a blade snaps, and some fencers wear a hard chest protector under their jacket.
Yes, it freaking does. Ask anyone who's fenced for a few years if they ever went home with bruises. It's a flat lie to suggest this isn't a very rough sport.
More in epee than in foil because the sword is less flexible and the pression required to score is 750 grams (500 in foil) despite the armor sometimes i find myself some big bruises.
I really don’t understand the rules or point system behind this . Why is it popular ? Does it pay well enough to focus all your time on ? I really don’t know what the deal is about fencing 🥴
I don't know what's the deal with baseball either you're just going to hit the ball and run around in circles, fencing is a noble sport lmao it was popular cause it was only for the rich and noble at that time. It requires intelligent and quick thinking and fast movements with a lot of foot technique
@@marquissmith7945 running around to catch a ball from someone throwing it sounds like something a dog would play just say you're too stupid to understand the difficulty of the sport and go

bruh imagine if they made an anime out of this sport, that’d be so cool ToT

I was just about to look for this 😭
There is a manga called Ginpaku no Paladin. It has 27 chapters, it’s pretty good though it doesn’t update often (hasn’t updated since June 2020)
tot?
Death note had fencing i think
2:18 incredible touch!
one thing i look at alot is footwork. people dont realize the importance of it
👆 Great comment. The setup before the final action is what helps you land the touch, and so much of it can be improved with good footwork.
Yep, thats the first thing you learn when you start fencing. It gets really complex
Great compilation
Love your channel
Thank you for watching! :D
I always feel I look like these guys when I'm fencing. Then I fence against them and realize how much the layman actually sucks by comparison.
Ascalis like who

Ascalis dang. How did you get the opportunity to fence them all?

Ascalis neat!
2:52 is that Baldini? From what bout is this?
It clearly wasn’t just luck on the day that won Garozzo the gold in 2016. What a champion!

I don't see what's so dangerous about this sport. There is many other sports that can lead to huge injuries.

No but it hurts when u hit the opponent's hand
Nope
Finally a video without dumbass background music
Do it hurt when you get touch?
It doesn't

@@mikefule wow! it sounds like with the right angle the foil can still do some scary damage.. hard to tell just from videos

It's centuries old, chap. And, it is a gentleman's sport. By the way, have you ever fenced? Sword fighting is amazing.
