    I haven't fenced in almost 10 years, I was captain of my HS fencing team. Landing one of these were the most memorable moments of the sport, we called them sky hooks.

    Stop hits in sabre are so much more satisfying than in foil

      Axel Vekemans thank you I really like this as well. You should expect them on every text even in every I make going forward until the end of my days 😁

    I once lost to Iliasz 15-1... The one touch I got was a stop cut!

    In 40 years, "stophit" or "counterattack" ) has been the only term I've heard for this action.

    Club mate of mine also called them wrist picks.
    Transition at 6:47 was a little hard on the eyes and the monochrome filter at 7:02 and 8:19 made the action a little hard to see. Great compilation.

    • @CyrusofChaos
      @CyrusofChaos  4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      thanks for the feedback. the monochrome was my attempted solution to both make blurry videos more watchable and to make repeat viewings of a touch more enjoyable

    Outstanding work guys!
    Magnificent fencing on display (who is this Iliasz? insane skills) and some really coachable points.
    8:00 had to watch twice to see when the stop cut landed.

    Counterattack by entering distance. Isn't that what we Jurassic fencers used to call Attack in Preparation?
    No, I'm not being critical. I'm being nostalgic.
    I did enjoy the part about the hand being a good target for counterattack but a poor one for attack.

    • @CyrusofChaos
      @CyrusofChaos  4 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      these days if you say attack in preparation it is basically said with the caveat that if there are two lights it would be a touch for the person who made the attack in preparation. i wanted to distinguish that from a counterattack which is an action you make knowing that if it is two lights it will be against you
