    If you listen closely, you can hear the Canadian fencer apologize after each hit he scores

    Sorry, I don't know fencing that well, but in the last clip Massilas clearly hit first and Garozzo second, so why did Garozzo win?

    • @JordanskiUK
      @JordanskiUK 7 лет назад +2

      In the foil division of fencing, in order to score a point you need to have the right of way, as the guy with the right of way also landed his hit, the point was awarded to him.

    • @samsignorelli
      @samsignorelli 3 года назад

      The referee determined that Garazzo was on the offensive, hence he had the right to score.
      Epee is the weapon where he who gets hit, gets hit.

      Its usually what he does in each tourney... He prepares really slowly and finishes with an explosive lunge

    watching fencers doing those ridiculous absence of blade approaches and then getting a stop thrust in the chest is really satisfying

      @ColterHarris 6 лет назад +3

      I used to fence with him at his academy in SF. Through the time I fenced with him, he had this very hunched over, contorted stance and a strange way of moving around... but you couldn't hit him, so it worked.

    is nobody going to talk about how at 1:16 it looks like meinhardt is using his foil to conduct the orchestra that is playing the soundtrack to this video and then his touch is punctuated by the music perfectly

      Tom - You are doing a great job. We were just in San Fran, LA, San Diegeo and NY a few weeks back, but didn't get a chance to fence. Let me know if you fancy collaborating on a few more vids...Cheers, Nick

    How was that last touch not Alex's?

    • @MaxximumKB
      @MaxximumKB 8 лет назад

      Okay. Well i did not see his beat attack, but we are pretty far away.

    • @samsignorelli
      @samsignorelli 3 года назад

      I still would've called that for Alex. Garazzo beat, then pulled his weapon WAY back and held it, getting hit BEFORE his hand started forward.

  • @samsignorelli
    @samsignorelli 3 года назад

    Not to take away from Garazzo's win, but that last touch was SO Alex's in prep. Garazzo's weapon hadn't BEGUN to move toward target when Alex hit him.
    And the team foil bronze match really should've been the gold match.

    • @hairybiscuitface344
      @hairybiscuitface344 2 года назад +1

      Alex was counterattacking, if he had step lunged in and then garozzo finished his attack you'd be right but Alex is moving backwards and tries to block out

  • @LumiRev
    @LumiRev 8 лет назад

    Wow. They are quick, but the footwork looks sloppy. Not saying I would win in a bout against an olympic fencer, but that just grinds my gears.

    • @dudeofvalor9294
      @dudeofvalor9294 8 лет назад +5

      Why do you think it is sloppy? Think the footwork was amazing and a lot of variety.

      he didn't have priority to attack, in foil fencing you must defend yourself when your opponent is attacking

      @@cloudnein3483 Dead-on for the most part. Some of those guys are tolerable. Others are pretentious Dungeons & Dragons looking mfs who think they can learn historical fencing through "treatises" AKA picture books.
