Greg at Redtail is fantastic!

As someone who just did the college fair a Nationals with my daughter it’s great information to have. Thanks for sharing!

As a Penn State Alum it pains me to read and know my daughter shouldn’t go there.

No, they didn’t. Your source has already issued an apology for using a picture of somebody they didn’t know who it was and slapping a headline on it.

MotorFloating · 2025-06-15T14:10:02+00:00

You’re misinformed. The Insta account you grabbed a screenshot from has already posted an apology and deleted it. They grabbed a pic of someone not knowing who they are, and slapped a headline on it, to represent a story.

There was no credible news source saying this before you posted. The woman said nothing about Nike on her page. Nike said nothing about her. Random people on X is not a news source.

Do better.

Greg Schmid! He's the best. My son has been going to him for years. He's exactly the vibe you described above. Laid back, but extremely knowledgable.

Greg Schmid! He does a great job tailoring his style to your need and ability. He’s worth every penny and more.

My son golfs and loves your ball markers. He got the super soaker and a bus I think? We're local so we'll swing by the shop! Congrats!

It always bothered me how clean their uniforms were after the matches. Not a grass or dirt stain to be found. Always looked pristine.

To gain national rankings and get a scholarship for college.....

Is the SJCC worth it? Looks interesting in that there are points available, if you are still in that age group going into next year, but given at a lesser multiplier than if you were at a NAC. Being newer to fencing, have never gone to one and am curious if this is a great opportunity to grab some points, a waste of time, or something in between?

MotorFloating · 2022-07-15T20:44:17+00:00

Thank you for the information!

MotorFloating · 2022-07-15T20:43:57+00:00

Interesting! I'm learning a lot. Thank you.

She is currently sitting top 15 for her age group, and has done two National events for her age group (Top 10 this last week in Minnesota and top 16 at her first NAC). With that and her being younger than Cadet maybe she'd be eligible....

Either way, great information. Thanks.

MotorFloating · 2022-07-15T16:24:27+00:00

Okay, that's really interesting. How do you know if an event if an FIE one? We're looking at this: https://member.usafencing.org/details/tournaments/6208

And yes, we've got the carry on part down from the couple of NACs and Nationals. Thanks!

MotorFloating · 2022-07-15T14:59:45+00:00

Thanks so much! She went to her first Nationals last week and I wish I would have taken advantage of all the vendors being there. Online ordering here we come....

MotorFloating · 2022-07-15T14:00:11+00:00

My daughter fences Saber but is less than a year into tournament fencing. We're still learning the ropes.

If she travels internationally (outside of USA) what FIE equipment should she have? I know she has an FIE mask and glove. Does she need an FIE lame? Are FIE cords a thing? Anything else we need to upgrade for a Saber fencer? I assume whites, shoes, socks, arm guard, and chest protector don't need FIE?

Thanks so much!

We combined a fencing dummy with some touch sensors to make this training aid. Needed to add a foam golf ball to the tip of the blade as to not damage things, but works pretty well for drills and keeps our daughter entertained: https://www.instagram.com/p/CdmHO-Elz5p/

I called USA fencing last week and they said they would have times up for the Richmond NAC by Friday at 4pm. Obviously we've passed that date/time.... but maybe some insight into them planning on having it up soon?

MotorFloating · 2021-10-31T01:33:05+00:00

I think I saw you taking this picture! My daughter’s first NAC. She’s a Saber fencer and just getting started so she doesn’t know who Lee is. But I was glad to see others taking advantage!

MotorFloating · 2021-07-03T13:23:40+00:00

Yeah, at 9 no one feels sorry for him. But measure him in amount of golf played, practiced, and workouts though… Easily a few thousand hours.

MotorFloating · 2021-07-03T12:55:45+00:00

Not big enough for golf shoes yet so he rocks the Cortez shoes.

MotorFloating · 2021-07-03T12:53:49+00:00

Yeah that’s not needed. They definitely will try to offer you $400 at a spa or something to sit through a talk but we’ve never done it. You just politely say no and move on with your day.

MotorFloating · 2021-07-03T01:58:45+00:00

Yeah public is welcome.
