| my first intro thread
okay I like never make intro threads to forums but apparently I have to according to Claire. Basically my cousin taught me how to fence but there is no real team in my area so it is all just fun really. I'd like a team, maybe in college. So yeah...
oh and apparently I'm supposed to say that im switching to sabre from foil. I've only just started with like a week ago but im getting my cousin's old one next week when he gets a new one. I think that's all, man im bad at these intro things  | 
|  | | And now for this message... |

Good choice with changing from foil to sabre!
Hope you enjoy it here

People would join, unless you live in, like, Kansas. I'm guessing SSM made you join... horrible girl that she is...  Anywho, welcome to the forums! | |

| Hey! what about epee? I'm sure since you're reluctantly starting sabre, you might wanna check out epee soon. You might even love it. 
Welcome!
