Fleche

I would love to know exactly what your coach said to you in the three minute break - I asked him afterward why he didn't give me any tips but he just shrugged and laughed - perhaps I should have said you had an "intense" concentration - I assumed that your fleche was a desire to get rid of me, but Amanda says this isn't so - I would be curious on your side - It just seemed like such a strong and complicated move when you had, in the previous point already moved to stop from having free attacks, I couldn't go back on defence, so I assumed, you would double - since with only one point left, I really could only afford to go with a sure thing - long lunges. ❋ Elizabeth McClung (2006)

Also a new steeple or "fleche" to replace the original that had been removed in the 1950's because of wind damage. ❋ Unknown (2009)

If this condition of yours is beatable, I know you'll knock it into a bloody pulp, and if it's not, then I know you'll do your damnedest giving it a good fleche. ❋ Elizabeth McClung (2009)

I hope you fleche at astounding speeds, and use such tricky as will work, and such hard work and training as will fill the rest and that you have 'magic touch' where you hand find the point by itself those magic minutes where you can't seem to BUT hit! ❋ Elizabeth McClung (2008)

En mettant le tapis de travers et bien quand je fais un pas a gauche mon pied se pose automatiquement a coté de la fleche du bas! c'etait tout con et ca a l'air de bien marcher! ❋ Pinku-tk (2008)

En fait le capteur du pied gauche glisse et a la facheuse habitude de se deplacer a coté de la fleche du bas ... ❋ Pinku-tk (2008)

I wait and then fleche her, which she must have been waiting for as she flicks my tip aside before flicking back to hit me on the chest. ❋ Elizabeth McClung (2007)

At 2-3 I actually said, “When are you going to fleche?” ❋ Elizabeth McClung (2007)

I knew I had to lunge to her body, I did about 25 seconds of dancing around, and attacked her arm a few times to get her jittered and then lunged, half fleche, half falling toward her body. ❋ Elizabeth McClung (2007)

Josh was faster than me, sure, but I was taller than him and as long as I got my arm above his on his fleche, I could counter. ❋ Elizabeth McClung (2007)

I faced Ellary and we tested each other out, she attacked, I countered and suddenly there was an opening, and I lunged, she retreated, I kept going in with fleche as almost all female fencers are unable to stand up to a strong running attack. ❋ Elizabeth McClung (2007)

We fence on and she gets a point, I counter with a fleche, and watch as her arms falls to her side as she retreats. ❋ Elizabeth McClung (2007)

I had beaten her fleche, I had beaten her in a stop hit on attack and I had gotten a point in a lunge and we ended the first three minutes with the score 7-4 in favor of me. ❋ Elizabeth McClung (2007)

I decided to risk all on a fleche and as soon as I saw an opening I put everything I had into launching myself at Jackie. ❋ Elizabeth McClung (2007)
