This bout was a joy to watch. Watching fencing videos never gets tiring.

Kleibrink's flicks and close quarter stuff is just unbeatable! I'm intrigued to know why the prime type thing up close seems to work so well when you're a lefty against a righty because I do it too with a fair bit of success.

even though he lost Yuki fuckin Ota is a beast!

If it makes you guys feel any better, Yuki Ota would fence Kleibrink again at the 2012 London Olympics and ended up winning that bout.

Luke Mitchell I have a German coach so I lean more towards Kleibrink even though I like both

@CyrusofChaos 12 жыл бұрын

what you are describing is exactly what happened. kleibrink takes a 4 parry and starts the riposte immediately, before yuki passed him

I'm no expert,but this was the greatest bout I've ever seen. This,to me,was a sword fight!! :)

Fencing is so fun to watch! Beautiful sport.

@absoluteloyalty9033 3 жыл бұрын

In reality, fencing is only beautiful with players like this. They have exceptionally good technical skills but most players aren't like this. Usually, fencing is extremely boring to watch so they need to make drastic changes to the rules.

@@absoluteloyalty9033 Not true at all, any National or even regional semi/final have a level of fencing that can be really fun to watch, even at cadet level or younger. Not many sports are really that exciting to watch in their entirety, you watch them for the climax and the competition, fencing is no different. The FIE changing the rules to make the sport more spectator friendly isn’t something objective that indicates something about the sport, it’s just their prerogative and a lot of fencers disagree with those changes.

@flickeringlamppost 12 жыл бұрын

not really sure why kleibrink got the flick after the fleche... the only time u can hit after they have passed u is if u have parried and started the riposte before they pass u....

@ProyectMooneJazzers You're forgetting Nicolas Lopez in sabre, who also took silver in his event.

I practice fencing since long time ago... i lost the oportunity in the 2000 when they came out... I think these are and will be the best fencing shoes... If i have the cance i will buy two pairs :P

@Voiv 15 жыл бұрын

They're the old Adidas Asymmetric shoes. Widely regarded as just about the best fencing shoes ever made, unfortunately though not in production anymore.

@Blad0506 15 жыл бұрын

Yeah a friend has them... Our club is the biggest of the country, we have 22 Metal pistes, they're the same that were used for the Athens Olympic Games, they're kinda old and they're getting slippery... So i need shoes because i can barely stand up well in the pistes. And they're too expensive to be changed

@Blad0506 15 жыл бұрын

What shoes are those at 5:22, lot of fencer have them...

Can you please quote the rule which supports that =)

ohh, i see it now...but the ref called it counterattack didnt he?

@Voiv 14 жыл бұрын

Interesting to learn, never used a pair myself. Personally, love the Adidas Feather shoes, (III or IV). The support on them is great, quite a thin sole and the grip is beyond belief. Essentially the 2008 Adistars but for less then half the price. Bargain =)

Should have at least gave him(Kleibrink) a red card for toss his mask....

@jonathancollins9057 2 жыл бұрын

The mask throw wasn't hostile which is probably why it wasn't given. If he threw out of anger during the bout I believe a red card would've been given.
