DAVIDE AMODIO MAISTO
C.S. Partenopeo
born 1996 – epee – right handed – french grip
He was Maestro Carmine’s first champion after the results recorded by Simone Esposito, the very confirmation of the good work done. C.S. Partenopeo’s ‘good giant’ has always astonished for his ability to win. He won as a kid, won among his peers and won against the elder. Unfortunately his career is signed by injuries. This fact has determined that he earned much less than he would have deserved to, made him slow down and finally consider fencing a mere hobby. He still attends C.S.Partenopeo and Maestro Carmine.
