Err, please explain to us commoners the rationale behind back line defense. If a fencer dash back too far, that is a score for the opponent, right? (・・ ) ?

[@SlicerSabre]

If the fencer leaves the end of the piste then they lose the point, so long as the fencer still has a foot inside they are ok. When the defender reaches the back line they obviously cannot retreat any further without doing ridiculous gymnastics so they are at a severe disadvantage and in theory should lose the touch 90% of the time. However as the defender, if you have the right mindset you realize that it is not you who has run out of space but the attacker. He can no longer skip, bounce or march at you, he actually has to try to hit you and you won't let him. The back line can be a paradoxical place where the rules grant the attacker an overwhelming advantage yet it in times of pressure it can be so difficult to finally finish the attack.

I did a little sabre in undergrad and hated it. We just ran into each other over and over and it seemed like whoever attacked first would always win. Your channel has shown me that sabre is very strategic and athletic; thanks. I wish I would've gave it a better shot.

1:19 is maybe the best touch I have ever seen in any weapon

[@detroitevans8130]

That first point was great, they just wiggled their sabres at eachother for like 4 seconds XD

Berder backline prime riposte for 44-40 2:38 . Second place to Szabo's missed jump-seconde remise for 43-40 vs Oh 3:19 HUGE courage to make those moves under that pressure.

[@oldschooljeremy8124]

Haha I never make it to the back line. More apt to imitate Lt. Richard Sharpe and "Stand and fight".
