[@maxl3189]

Crazy that fencing of kinds was the norm 200 years ago. Fathers taught sons how to sword fight and disputes where settled via duel

[@Noor-rk9sf]

Well it wasn't as quick since the swords weighed far heavier. But yeah sabre is the closest to how it was before. Perhaps a bit more stabbing motions like épée though.

[@stollkoloss2689]

@@Noor-rk9sf depends. For example in polish/hungarian Sabre fencing would be way more Cuts than Stabs, Just because of the Design of the Blade. They were far more curved than the modern olympic ones, and had a wider Blade. (Dont know about size in General) this allowed for quick and lethal Cuts,while Stabs, though possible and quite deadly were a lot more difficult to pull Off.

[@byrne8509]

@@Noor-rk9sf sabre is actually the farthest from what duelling was like.

[@akata007]

It's a different kind of sword fighting nowadays...

[@hamrite]

the actual fencing seen here derives from the courses provided for officers who did not have a rifle or sabre and were exposed on the battle field without the obligation to get involved in the brawl. they felt insecure so it was decided that they would undergo fencing and gun shooting to provide them with a minimum of physical battle training. Depending on what regiment they were part of, they had a choice between the different weapons. That concluded the tactical and strategic training they would get in Military School.

[@taylorahern3755]

Amazing, & what incredible athleticism & dedication! If I knew 25-30 years ago what I know now I would have pursued that sport vigorously, fervently & with tremendous rigor (following six months of super intense dancing & ballet lessons, to increase & enhance my nimble footwork & agility). Might still look into taking some lessons (back in the late 1600s-mid 1700s the Irish excelled at that type of swordplay with rapier swords, as they were some of the finest & fiercest in all of Europe in that fine & fancy art!).

Twenty-five Twenty-one, this is your fault why I came here.

[@Dancingtuna]

I don't know if the writers knew this, but Hee-Do has a similar backstory to Kim Junghwan on the Korean team. Kim's dad is the reason why he fenced at school. When Kim won his international competition in 2005, he was disqualified for testing positive for illegal substances, but he continued to fence because of his dad. Then Kim's dad died but he is still a motivation for Kim to continue fencing

[@jonnmostovoy2406]

It's impossible to hear the calls. I think the popularity of fencing would greatly increase if the competitors would be warned and ultimately disqualified for screaming.

[@Dancingtuna]

I really doubt it dude. The calls are all in French, and it's not like hearing the referee calls would allow fresh audiences to understand how priority works

[@ce6535]

Boo. I do think the referee should be better illuminated, but of ALL of the problems with the fencer/referee interaction fencers being loud isn't one of them.

[@lechugo231]

there is so much tension that screaming becomes really necessary... I did semi professional Espada(Epee) fight for 10 years in Spain.

100% Particularly because they scream the loudest when the action is in doubt in order to influence the director. It’s bullshit.
