Perhaps because "real" jousting is much more deadly than football. And the animal rights activists would go ape shit. More horses generaly died and got maimed during the period than on may think. I personaly would like to see old school traditional jousting return. Most today have raised the list to protect the horse, thats ok, but the other aspects of the joust are less than authentic.
Mr. Capwell's harness is very nice.

@guythatEATStheCHIP97 yea I know, what happened to the traditional thicker lances, where you acctually had to be in shape to hold the lance.

me too! that's one of the most beautiful armored suit I've ever seen!

@Szheherazad It's lacquered metal. A varnish is added during the forging process and turns it black.
