Oblique Reposte in Prime: and suddenly, we’re infighting!

Stuck fencing someone who has strong second intention with good separation of distance? Just can’t get those direct actions to work? Perhaps it’s time to think creatively and make all that distance disappear in an instant. This lesson is going to look at an example of transitioning from a distance setup to an infighting platform to land a touch. In particular, this will examine how making a parry from distance, and then crushing the distance with an articulated reposte in prime, can lead to a winning solution to a tough situation.
