    Foil DVD's w/new timing - which one to pick up?

    I want to buy a foil DVD with the new season's timings... I was wondering which one you guys like? Looking at the World Championship one it looks like great quality but just too damn far away.. what others do you guys think are good? CIP maybe?

    I sort of want to stay away from the ugly stuff (la coruna i have seen, was very boring to watch)

    I am speaking about men's foil btw

    Get the 2005 WCs in Leipzig:

    http://shop.fencing.net/Fencing_DVDs...deos_s/102.htm

    Professionally produced and a decent price considering what you get and they get pretty good reviews here on the board. I was hoping to get them for Christmas... alas, no other fencers in the family.

    * 2 hours of broadcast-quality network feed video
    * Slow-motion repeats
    * 8 camera angles
    * Interviews, specials, and extras

    Men's Foil

    As opposed to marching down the strip with your arm pulled back to fail at your opponents back?
    Clean fencing is at least as possible under the new timings as it was under the old.
    If you give a man a fire, he is warm for the night.
    If you set a man on fire, he is warm for the rest of his life.

    "Clean fencing" and "Foil" in the same sentence is an oxymoron.
    "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. And from this side only! The flight of a half-man, half-bird. Dinosaurs nuzzling their young in pastures where strip malls should be. Cookies on dowels. All those moment, lost in time. Gone, like eggs off a hooker's stomach. Time to die" -Phil Ken Sebben
