Epee camp day 4

I think today we will work on Binds and taking the blade in different lines. Bind in 6 and 2 and pressing with the 4. In epee it is important to control your opponents blade. Get them to commit to an attack then take the blade so that it is no longer a threat to you. While you have the blade make your own attack making sure to stay in contact with your opponent's blade. If they release off they will probably hit you with a counter-attack or take your own attack into a bind and hit you. If your can control the distance and their blade you control the bout.
