That's really cool! I tried it once and enjoyed it but decided I didn't need yet another hobby, haha. Any particular reason you picked epee over foil or sabre?Originally posted by XylathaneGTR
Yeah, I got into it about a year and a half ago with the focus of strengthening my legs, core, balance and stability - all things I'm still weak in from the car crash all those years ago. Thought it'd just be a temporary thing but it turned out its fun as hell so I stuck around and finally bi the bullet on a full kit. For those reading, definitely worth a quick drop in; the basics for epee are pretty quick to pick up and it's all around great exercise and really fun.

Nice work Max. That's awesome.

Epee is the easiest to begin with - it's the cloest to true 'dueling' and there are few rules (hit anywhere with the tip, no priority) and most of the clubs start you there. I actually started with Foil (as I had a coach who was a foilest), tried Epee for a little bit, and then moved back into foil full-time. I'll still pick up an epee every once in a while, but foil's my main squeeze and I've purchased all-foil equipment.Originally posted by BerserkerCatSplat

Epee is a bit slow for me because there is risk in every move which (usually) put the matches onto a slower pace (whoever hits first regardless of initiation scores the point). Conversely, Sabre is extremely fast and aggressive and while it is fun (i liken it to 'pirate fighting') with my injuries I was not able to keep up with the speed. Foil is a happy medium between the two - it's a good balance of aggression, speed, and pacing and control; there's a lot of discipline in it.

Nice. The fit and finish on those is amazing. If I had one of those I'd probably hang it on display in my living room and keep using my $200 Yildiz lol.
