Electric Foil Fencing, by Istvan Lukovich

Be the first to write a review

This powerful book bridges the gap between beginner and competitor. It teaches the differences in technique, training, and approach between traditional, classical, "beginners" foil and competitive electric foil. These differences aren't the result of a "degeneration" of classical foil -- rather, they are marks of a new era of foil fencing. The book is copiously illustrated, and the drawings complement the text to communicate directly to the reader. The original material has been supplemented, among other things, by a discussion and explanation of the fencing terminology used here, and how it differs from some common understandings of the terms.
