Websites?

**Lungin' Ry** · 10-03-2004 07:16 PM

I'm pretty new to fencing, and I need to practice the several parries that exist in fencing, so I was wondering if there was a website that has a diagram showing the different kinds of parries so I can memorize when to do them and practice them... please let me know. Thnx

I'm not sure that such a website exists. Try asking your coach.
The important parries are:

4-across chest
6-opposite of 4, protects shoulder
7-sweep down and left
8-sweep down and right

Search around fencing.net I remembered someone posted a JAVA or some sort of visual aid for parries in the 4 different lines. Click on a line and the 'fencer' would simulate a parry in that line.

Parries used the most depend on the weapon.

One of the best "train yourself" websites I have ever come across. He covers a lot of good stuff but you will still need to find a good coach and a club to practice with.
