The hero of fast fencers everywhere 😄

[@robotnixon3453]

That whip-fast double flick at 11s!

[@OlympicFoil]

Only thing faster than Ota's feet is Ota's hand 😂

[@julsd6009]

man Ota is my soul inspiration honestly. one day i'll strive to get his speed

[@mrrangerschannel8180]

In the Ota - Massialas match, there is a parry, then hit to back that Ota does. It’s a great hit, and a superb example of his speed. Even the commentators were wowed. It would go great with this video.

[@OlympicFoil]

That hit was incredible! Really nerves of steel 🤩 I made certain to include it in this trickshot video 😅 must have missed it editing somehow this time around: kzbin.info/www/bejne/onLVg32Cn5ZnnLc

[@jakuboronowicz8421]

Ota is CEO of hit and block out

[@OlympicFoil]

hahaha 100% 😂 Managing Director of too fast for u

[@nicolacarswell9888]

As someone who watches at x2 this was a delight to witness. I didn't see anything land, but boy was he shmooving

[@OlympicFoil]

I just tried that myself, crazy shit lol

[@alexthegreat38]

He looks like he's on 2x speed when you watch it normally. lol.

[@christianalbertjahns2577]

1:56 2:58 you know you have insane bladework (and working brain) if you can deduce (and parry, obviously) Garrozo's delayed riposte

[@garchompdude]

You should do more of these. It’s very well made

[@OlympicFoil]

😁 Thanks I'd love too, the really tricky part is getting the song right, seems to make the difference

[@pedrim5969]

Bro is fencing saber

[@OlympicFoil]

Yup

[@cactus3092]

Yesssss 🔥🔥

[@christianalbertjahns2577]

anyway where did you get Ota vs Heo bout? I desperately need that

[@OlympicFoil]

Oh sure thing, it's from the 2014 Asian Champs: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZWZn4p5rJagn5o& Skip to 3:22:22

[@ubee2014]

is there any way to find the full bout of 2:21? the london 2012 yuki ota v B. Kleinbrink

[@OlympicFoil]

Sure thing, this was from the team event the link is here (with timestamp): kzbin.infoxF8ct4AJ40c?si=q6vrvm1UcBKlR61G&t=2392

[@ubee2014]

2:05 looks to be off strip but no call from ref explain?

[@OlympicFoil]

Looks close, I guess the ref thought he was still on or didn't notice

[@ubee2014]

2:29 footwork here is amazing by yuki, but it looks somewhat different from a traditionally advance, its sorta like a bouncing but with the important stability of the core not bouncing. And it is a little bit high then a traditional staying low en grade

[@OlympicFoil]

absolutely crazy stuff he would do

[@ubee2014]

Olympic foil is your channel runned by multiple people? because if it isn't rip your comment notifications

[@OlympicFoil]

@@ubee2014 Just me lol

[@xDinomanx]

Ota, one of my favourite Foilists. Always a big fan of his. At least nowadays he's retired and currently the President of the Japanese Fencing Federation doing everything to keep promoting the sport. However, I think as fast as Ota is, Lee Kwanghyun is the fastest (not by much though): kzbin.info/www/bejne/hWXFdZqMg7tlhMU

[@OlympicFoil]

Oh shit, don't tell Fencing Season about this 👀 We can start a KZbin drama 😂

[@christianalbertjahns2577]

@Olympic Foil we might complete the fast foilist compilation by adding Heo Jun and Erwann Le Pechoux then.

[@OlympicFoil]

Good names! I just had a look at the rankings for other fencers. The top ten are relatively fast (of course), but no crazy speedsters like Ota at the very top right now. Can't wait for Tokyo, with the Olympics you never know who will shine!

[@christianalbertjahns2577]

well by footwork, yes I agree with you. Bladework-wise, though, Ota has (or in his case, had) faster (and more pristine) bladework

[@xDinomanx]

@@christianalbertjahns2577 I'd say Lee still has really fast bladwork too, It's just Lee tends to fight with more direct compound actions rather than Ota prefers to flick and use remise's.

what is this funky chinese music
