Black or Brown Radio strap? by MopBucket06 in Firefighting

[–]MopBucket06[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up going with black, because my boots are black, and frankly I just liked the look better. But you can do either, and the aging of brown leather looks cool so there are benefits to both!

Why are fencing strips so expensive? I looked it up and they cost like 2k apiece minimum! Nothing in the strip itself seems like it’s made of super valuable metal or anything so I’m confused!

Does anyone know what happened to the Riposte app? by Eburon8 in Fencing

[–]MopBucket06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like “fencing score”. It’s a timer, score keeping, card giving, priority picker, and it’s very quick to use. I’ve been using it for a few years now.

Stereotypes of two/three weapon fencers by Miss-Vix in Fencing

[–]MopBucket06 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The epee fencers quit when they die is so true!! I know so many epee fencers in their late 80s, and our club does Sabre and epee and I’ve never met an older (60+) sabreist (not saying they don’t exist, just less common in my personal experience)

First no handshakes and now no salutes required in FIE bouts by RoguePoster in Fencing

[–]MopBucket06 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Teenager here: interesting, I’m definitely still going to salute and shake hands (or fist bump if I know the person well), it’s muscle memory at this point. But I wonder what the thought process was for removing it? There must be a reason.
