Thanks to my he was able to make the visual component an equal part of his sport at the same time, in his texts he was able from the beginning to be able to look up and abbreviate. Its mobility and the shot is admirable even after 90 years - it was not limited to Brno, Moravia, Czechoslovakia or Central Europe and went to other European countries for athletes.
