    Downunder be darned for stealing my eels. I want those back, or atleast promise to take good care of them. Especially Berny.

    There's not all that much fencing footage on youtube. My suggestion: go to a high level tournament in your area.

    My coach said that there are a relatively large number of tournaments in HOng Kong, but I don't know where to begin -.-'

    To be honest there aren't that many flicks or fleches in the tournaments, just step step, lunge, step, beat, lunge.

    Clearly coincidental... I mean, if stuff like that worked better, you'd expect to see almost only... oh, wait...

    http://www.hkafa.org.hk/ Has some events listed. Ask your coach, ask around. I'm sure there are some events that arn't listed there.

    In all actuality depending on the weapon used there arn't that many fleches in general unlike Sabre in which at times every high level action seems like a flunge.

    On the fencingchannel.tv website if you look at the finals of the Cadet Men's Epee world championship, the Italian guy does at least one nice fleche. I'm not sure if the resolution of the video is good enough, but it's something that comes to mind.
