The Epee Parry subfamily covers all blade-deflection actions in epee, where the fencer uses their blade to redirect or block an incoming thrust before responding with a riposte. [1] Parries in epee must cover a wider defensive area than in foil because the entire body is a valid target — the fencer must be prepared to parry attacks to the hand, arm, leg, and torso, not just the torso. [1],[2] Epee parries tend to be smaller and more precise than sabre parries, using minimal blade movement to deflect the incoming point while maintaining readiness for the riposte. [2],[3]

Биомеханический механизм
Primary Action — Cutting, thrusting, or striking with a bladed weapon — edge alignment and trajectory determine cutting effectiveness
Joints Involved — Wrists (edge alignment and rotation), elbows (extension for thrusts, chambering for cuts), shoulders (arc of the cut), hips (power generation)
Force Vector — Varies — downward diagonal cut (kesa-giri), horizontal cut (yoko-giri), thrust (tsuki), or rising cut (kiri-age)
Weapon Mechanic — Edge alignment (hasuji) is critical — the blade must travel along its cutting plane for effective cuts
Позиция и вход
From en garde position — Establish distance, extend the blade toward the target with a lunge or advance-lunge, recover to guard
As riposte (counter-attack) — Parry the opponent's attack and immediately riposte with a thrust or cut to the exposed target
From distance (preparation) — Use blade work (beats, feints, engagements) to create an opening before the final attack

Заметки по тренировке
✓Epee parries deflect the opponent's blade away from the target before responding with a riposte — in epee, parries must cover the entire body since every part is a valid target (Evangelista, The Art and Science of Fencing, 1996)
✓Epee parries differ from foil parries: they must cover a wider target area (whole body vs. torso only) and do not establish right of way
✓The primary epee parries correspond to the eight positions: quarte (inside high), sixte (outside high), septime (inside low), octave (outside low), and their variations
✓In epee, the parry-riposte sequence is a two-part action: parry (deflect the attack), then riposte (counter-thrust into the opening created by the parry)
✓Epee parries must be firm: the heavier epee blade requires more force to deflect than the lighter foil blade
✓The circular parry (counter-parry) is particularly useful in epee: it catches the blade and redirects it regardless of the attack line
✓Opposition parries (maintaining blade contact after the parry) are favoured in epee: they close the line while setting up the riposte
Типичные ошибки
!Making parries too large — the parry should move the opponent's blade just enough to clear the target
!Not riposting immediately after the parry — in epee, the opponent can withdraw and re-attack; the riposte must be immediate
!Using the same parry for all attacks — different attack lines require different parry positions
!Parrying with a stiff arm — the parry should use the wrist and forearm with a relaxed shoulder
!Not maintaining opposition after the parry — in epee, closing the line during the riposte prevents the remise (renewal of attack)
!Parrying too early — an early parry allows the opponent to disengage; time the parry to the final attack
!Not training parries against attacks to the low line — epee attacks can target the legs and feet; low parries are essential

Часто задаваемые вопросы
Why do I need to start my rear parry earlier than my ceding parry?
Beth Speedy explains that you must start a rear parry (like grazing six) earlier to be ready in time, whereas a ceding parry can happen a moment later because it's only a modification of the wrist.
What's the most important thing to focus on when parrying and riposting in epee?
Tim's Fencing Academy emphasizes that maintaining distance at the moment your opponent attacks is most important; taking a step back as they advance gets them off balance and stretched out, setting up your parry and riposte.
How much should I step back when parrying, and what's a common mistake?
Tim's Fencing Academy advises taking only a small step back—just an inch or so—rather than jumping back five inches, and to bend your legs and sit low to maintain reach; stepping back too much prevents you from reaching your opponent for the riposte.
Can I riposte to different target areas after a parry?
Tim's Fencing Academy confirms that with a parry you can riposte to any target, and recommends becoming proficient at hitting the hand, elbow, shoulder, and other areas depending on the situation.
