What I really love about Maartens fencing is the way he clearly doesn't want to get hit at all. His parries are on point (even redoubled parries - which are really rare to see in most HEMA I know). Even against such an incredibly fast fencer as Yannick. Both finalists are well deserved.

These guys sure don´t like the thrust. Cool, tho

Definitely not true for Maarten, who has an excellent thrust. The problem is doing it against Yannick. I managed to do that twice in the semifinal against him and I was surprised it worked - then he adapted, closed the line better and that was that ;)

You can see he tries a few times, but then cuts around because the parry against the thrust is very good, but the parry against the cut around isn't as strong. If you find an opponent's weakness, you exploit it. De Smet didn't need to adapt much in these matches.

I openend the first four exchanges with a thrust that got parried or missed...
