This video comes from the Seoul Men’s Foil World Cup via Lee Kyu Jin’s video channel. This is a Top-8 bout between Race Imboden (USA) and Yuki Ota (JPN). There’s a host of videos from the Seoul men’s and women’s foil events there, so if you have a favorite foilist on the FIE circuit, check the channel out. I just happen to really like Ota’s fencing style so I’ll use this chance to showcase him.

 


 

Imboden went on to take 2nd at this event, falling in the finals to Alexander Massialas. The video of that final bout is here:
