well , it is common in S. Korea. Korean viewers think commentators who were former players or Olympians can let them know something more detailed and specific or trivia on the professions. So Won is one of the popular fencing commentators in S.Korea ;)
Sydney Sabre Of course I know it is common in every sport. I mean... i am curious about why it is unusual in fencing. Well... Choi Byung Chul, men foir bronze medalist in London 2012 Olympic, is also a popular fencing commentator in Korea.
Gara gara drakor "twenty five twenty one" Jadi ngeliat ginian kan wkwkwk. Liat orang indo dan Korea lagi anggar gini. Trnyata gerakan sat sat set sat set nya beda ya. Ada yang beraturan ada yg ngga
Amazing .So fast.Never seen this before.Not a spectators sport.It’s too fast.Best to watch in slow motion.Wish I had taken this up when I was a young man.
Congratulations for the win. Hope someday Cabke Cord at the back of Fencers will be omit. Instead convert to wireless eletonics, to maximize the side and the entire stage. Not only focusing on the forward attack.
One question: why in some matches they use those wires in the back and others they don't? and hmm those wire are good for something? like protection etc?
The wires are connecting electrical circuits to their metal jackets, helmets, and sabres. So when a fencer touches their opponent with the sword, it completes the electrical circuit and makes the light turn on so that the judges can know more accurately who is getting points. The reason you don see the wires in other forms of fencing is like in Epee where the fencers do not wear conductive metal since the whole body counts as a point, so only the blade needs to send signal wirelessly when it touches something.
@@SuAmazing wire started being used many years ago, in some competitions they tried wireless but some bad cases of cheating led to a stop in their use on international competitions
