| Hi there Hi all,
my name is Brian.
I've been fencing for almost 10 years. I took a year off after I graduated college  but I have been back at it about a month. Epee is my main weapon although I can direct foil I haven't fenced foil since I was 15.
Anyway, I enjoy long walks on the beach. . .NO
I am happy to talk to you all and look forward to our conversing in the future.
Talk to you soon,
--PurpZeY/Brian

Let me ask you something, given your fencing and technical experience (maybe I'm assuming you attended RIT, but I think you said you did) what do you know about overhead reel systems? If you can help me out, drop me a PM or IM me.
I would really appreciate it, and so would Justin...especially if he comes back from Nationals and the overheads are fixed.
Thanks,
--B

| Hello Brian Brian,
Watch out for the message boards. Lots of odd characters. Deviants, too. Try not to embarass the family.
