Open du Port de la Lune, diēs secundus - acīnacēs et gladius brevis cum parmā. In circulō acīnacis semel tantum victus sum, angustissimē VI:VII, in omnibus aliīs tribus certāminibus vīcī. In ēlīminātiōnem progressus sum quō vīcī in gradū prīmō, sed in proximō (summī VIII) victus sum.
In gladiō brevī cum parmā quoque victus sum semel et bis vīcī in circulō. In ēlīminātiōne, quō VIII dē XII proeliatōrēs progressī sunt, vīcī in gradū prīmō, deinde in certāmine sēmifīnālī victus sum. In certāmine ultimō vincere potuī, nummum aēneum 🥉 capiēns. Nisi male reminiscor, id est prīmum nummum meum prō gladiō cum parmā.
Grātulātiōnēs Batesta Bordeaux prō certātiōne bene ordīnātam, praecipuē rēspiciēns id prīmum fuit 👏

Open du Port de la Lune, day two - saber and sword and buckler. In the saber group I lost only once, most narrowly 6:7, and won in the other three bouts. I advanced to the elimination where I won in the first round, but in the next one (top 8) I lost.
In the sword and buckler group I also lost once, and won twice. In the elimination, to which 8 of 12 fighters advanced, I won in the first round, then I lost in the semifinal. In the very last fight, I was able to win, claiming the bronze medal 🥉. Unless I remember incorrectly, this is my first medal for sword and buckler.
Congratulations to Batesta Bordeaux for a well organised tournament, especially considering this was the first time 👏

Nou herinner ik me toch een vrij specifieke casus die in de marketingboeken staat waardoor deze kop niet klopt. #Buckler

Laten we na #Buckler heel #Heineken #Boycotten met z'n allen.
