Don’t Forget Your Fencing Mask
While fencing is a new sport to me, there are some things that are obvious to me. One of those things is that the fencing mask is probably the most important piece of equipment that a participant wears. There are several aspects of the fencing mask that make it important. A mask should have sufficient padding on the inside. While there should be sufficient padding inside the fencing mask, it shouldn’t block the eyes in any way. The bib of the mask covers the throat and protects it in case the sword point hits the participant there. Finally, the tongue of the fencing mask allows the user to adjust the mask so it fits the head appropriately.
