Chris goes in depth on the nuances of calling and executing an attack into preparation "attack in prep" in foil. This topic is one of the hardest topics in foil to get a good grasp on, especially for newer fencers and referees as there is simply a lack of good, detailed explanation and discussion available. This video however is extensive, with almost an hour of Chris discussing his thoughts on it and carefully deconstructing 18 calls from Senior World Cup level bouts - 9 which were given as attack in prep and 9 which were not. While the general principles of refereeing discussed are sound, the exact conventions since this video was created in the 2019/20 season may have changed.
Please share this around to help people understand this topic!

Massive thank-you to Chris for taking the time to help me make this video!
