I love the slow mo step by step explanations you do here!!! I enjoy watching bouts for fun, but when I want to watch to learn how to do something better or not do something it is so hard to pinpoint anything because bouts move so fast. My son started Fencing a year ago and used your workouts daily, and now that I have joined him I get to see first hand why he would always go to your videos for drills and help to learn more:) Thank you so much for all the time and effort you put into your videos!!! I would love to see more of these slow mo explanations for really anything with fencing:) Real bouts and breaking them down is so helpful for me to understand and then practice for myself how to do or not do things:)

1. Counter attacks should not be talked about as reactive, reactive counter attacks are subject to anyone who sets a trap for the counter attack to happen. 2. Does not talk about half steps at all, which you clearly did a half step back in the first counter attack you accomplished. That is a crucial part when stepping up counter attacks 3. You didn't touch upon time and steps it takes to execute an actions and allow for a counter attack. This video doesn't focus enough on crucial parts of the set ups.

If the foil has a system of right o wayf, meaning the attack has priority over the counter-attack and the parry repose has priority over the attack. If a fencer point is not threading the target, as you stated his point was nowhere close to the target, then how can it be parried, thus how can it be an attack. If an attack loses priority by being parried, then the person being attacked has to have something to parry in order to gain priority. If you are coming forward and your point is not threading the opponent's target then that is preparing to attack. In most other combat sports and real life. If you talk or run up to someone with your weapon(fist,gun or anything ) not on target and you get hit.

Great question! If you haven't already... Take a look at these two videos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGXQm3aliqidfNk kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoKxaXShndN0fLc Also, your grip has a lot to do with your precision. Make sure you are griping the handle with your thumb on top of the grip. Pinching the grip with the thumb and pointer finger. Also, you want to make sure your grip is light and relaxed. The harder you grip the blade the bigger, slower and less controlled your actions will be.

This is an amazing video but how can this apply when you are left handed? Because when an left handed fencer does an counter attack by pivoting on the left leg it exposes the back too much.

As a leftie, I find you can often twist your torso towards the right, both lengthening your own (left) arm and also possible allowing your opponents foil to either miss the drastically reduced target, or role right off. Did it against some Japanese lad at Nationals last year. It also helps if you square up and make it seem like your torso is an easy target right before you make the attack/counter attack

You don't need to apply the specific movements here. Look at the general patterns: * Spot or (better) create a moment when your opponent is moving forwards but not ready to finish (blade moving away from target, mind not decided, etc) * Go directly to the target in that moment * Evade, break distance or close out the finish Exactly how you want to do that will depend on right vs left, relative heights, preferred actions for both you and your opponent, etc. But the same ideas apply to all effective counterattacks.

Any concern about getting penalized for turning your back on your opponent during that spinning motion?
@FencersEdge
@FencersEdge 5 жыл бұрын
That's why the distance is so important. If you try this move from too far away, you will be turning your back to your opponent and you will get carded. However, when done from the proper distance you will be turning you back when you are right beside your opponent and won't be showing them your back.

Coach Tyler - I have a contention with what you're terming a "counter attack." Given that the rule book defines an attack by the presentation of a threat (the movement, offensively, of the blade away from the fencer towards the opponent, and that confers right-of-way), the first example of counter attack that you present here is more precisely AN ATTACK. At its most loose determination, it's an attack into preparation. Your opponent never established a threat with the blade, just advanced toward you, arm always bent, never even beginning to extend. Your second example definitionally IS a counter attack, as your extension/attack is in response to your opponent's, IF a Director regards the footwork during the lunge as the initiator of the threat (and as mentioned earlier), not the blade. Even you comment on your opponent's having pulled the weapon arm BACK during his action. Pulling the weapon arm back towards the body is NOT an offensive action, and cannot be regarded as such, so the end effect is that your opponent was, however briefly, just lunging towards you with no threat, and you hit him for it. It seems like one can go gallumping down the strip, and if the blade is located anywhere in front of the feet, that's now viewed as the "attack" - I suppose for it to be seen as obviously NOT an attack, one would either have to point the blade backwards, or drag it along the strip while advancing. Please produce a video explaining the current / "modern" determination of where the "attack" begins and when right-of-way is gained.

Nowadays yes, the dynamic and physical nature of fencing means the old straight arm blade play is not how foul is reffed. The feet do contribute to priority, and threatening the target is not applied strictly as an arm extension. There’s some great videos and examples on this website: www.quarte-riposte.com/foil-priority-for-newbies/ which explains how foil priority is currently reffed.

In modern foil, the rules have changed to where referees do look for the feet first before the arm. Example: Advance lunge now has priority over straight lunge with arm extended.
