Abstract

This research aims at identifying the comparative characteristic indicators of the kinematics of the Flèche skill in foil fencing. The descriptive method was used, being suitable for this type of research. The study sample consisted of 2 fencers: 1 high-level fencer, and 1 under 15 years old ordinary fencer. Video shooting and kinematographic analysis were conducted on the kinematical variables (time – horizontal and vertical speeds of joints – speed achieved – angular speed and velocity of the body centre of gravity) in the main positions taken for analysis, including the on guard position, losing balance with the back foot leaving the floor, flying with the leading foot leaving the floor, landing (balance recovery). Results of the research showed an increase in the vertical speeds and velocities in the ordinary fencer, an undesirable increase because of the direction of the movement, and an increase in the horizontal speed in the high-level fencer. It is recommended to develop the kinematical variables that could help improve the performance level of fencers.
