As the title indicates, I'm new (to both fencing and these forums).
Started maybe a month ago, certainly enjoying it though - I just ordered my first basic set of gear, should arrive some time this week. I've spent hardly any time with foil so far, for better or worse, though quite a bit more with epee which I've already taken a greater liking to. With any luck, I'll be trying my hand at sabre later today to get a better idea of it - other than that, not much to say. |

| Well, sabre was a damned lot of fun as well. Seems a little more suited towards my body type and natural movement as well, but at the moment, I'm just exploring & having fun of course. | |
