| Re: Request for information Just guessing, but I would expect that your lunge would be impacted,
your retreat would be almost nonexistent and possibly the fleche as well..
So I'd suggest focusing on developing the most excellent parry riposte system
you can work up.
Very seriously speaking, I was in the middle of a bout of tendonitus
and my coach commented to me that injury is a part of the game and you have to
learn to work with it. Epee might be a better game for you than foil or sabre
where movement predominates.
