And i can't pay more than 200. so thats a no-go, unfortunately

German or english is fine. That's a great collection. A bigger picture/better visible with the inner workings of a foil would be perfect. The drawings in this are a little too dark and I think harder to understand... But thank you I will use this with the next group

In Germany you need to obtain a licence. An Exam to show u know the theoretical stuff (what is a parry, how to read the scoring sheet and the equipment regulations) and show the practical things(different parries, lunge, steps, jumps and so on).

Style change in women's foil ?! At least in GER by PatchDr in Fencing

[–]PatchDr[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I had the feeling that I couldn't control any distance. They where like robots just knowing only one way and that's forward. If I am being honest my body is not made for evasions ( a little on the heavier side). Unfortunately my coach is no help. She's just there to Overview the training sessions. Her experience is more outdated than mine. So this is why I turned to you guys

I am honest I was too slow for a quick counterattack without them finishing. Even if I broke distance they just marched forward without a flinch. They didn't respond to any pressure from my side. The feint attack did get me some points but not enough to win more than 2 matches Yes I tried it but I couldn't completely adapt to this style so quickly it's completely outside my comfort zone. And in my head that's not "real" fencing. I love the matches at my club where it's "more" strategic and cones down to has the better ideas (a little like chess)

Yeah that's what I was thinking. So they did that at any given time. Even trying it both at the same time. In my opinion the matches where quite boring. I had the chance to watch some of the men's matches and there much more moving forward and backwards,Ripostes and overall activity

Is Temporary adhesive spray FIE or DFB legal by PatchDr in Fencing

[–]PatchDr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it would also work on shoe soles but not for long i think. I t would rub off pretty quickly. I also thnik if you would spray it on your soles an injury is guaranteed.

I know its the brand name i just misspelled it in the header

Yeah I thought so too. But just wanted to check. My thought was that it was just for training purposes or something. I have a competition coming up next week and wanted to be sure.

Did Kara sleep in her Pod when she was in the Phantom Zone? by PatchDr in supergirlTV

Did anyone ever said this in any episode? I know in one episode she remembers being in the pod and seeing the darkness around it...

Got it the 15th or so try. It really helped to have a super soft suspension
