change up the angles of your blows...they all seem to be thrown from the same 2 places: 10:00 and 2/3:00. Switch it up, I bet you'll get good results.
Duly noted - I have wrist flexibility problems that make it a bit hard to get the sword properly positioned on the first shot, but I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks!
One word of advice i might offer. With how you hold your shield and sword your leaving your forearm wide open for a shot. Im guessing you dont have many lefties in your area? This is not meant to dog you in anyway, as you are already improving greatly from your first video. Just offereing what advice i can to help
Maybe you should go to a local group practice, put on the gear and then talk about it not being sport.
Takes me 15 minutes to get in the gear, and 10 minutes to rest before I can start chopping, very athletic activity. I'm only good for MAYBE an hour of full speed combat.
You guys sound SOOOO midwestern, and it makes me smile. I've been stuck down in georgia for the longest time...

We do have a few - I change my stance quite a bit when I face them. The advice is appreciated, though!

Thanks, I appreciate the support! It certainly seems to be helping with the motivational aspect.

It's as much a sport as any other sport.

I went with sports because that's what most other SCA fighting is under. It also is fairly sportized; lots of things in it are unrealistic.

What's with the category "sports"? Shouldn't this be under.... I dunno.... "silly buggers doin' silly stuff"?

He doesn't have the feat yet. He's practicing it now so that when he levels up he can take it......

Nice disarm on Shane there. Or did he just sorta drop it, either way a true ninja move. And I should know.
Oh, and isn't florentine a specific fighting style that uses two specific weapons and not just fighting with two weapons?
Oh, and when did you take that feat?
