Stromsburg Sword

Doing a combat demo at the Swedish Festival, using sword and shield. This is a great little event, and we just love the park setting. Can't beat the shade on a 90+ degree day.

@skallagrimm were you i sweden in this video

[skallagrimm]

@VampireShogun ummm no, this was in a little town called Stromsburg, in Nebraska. It's a predominately Swedish population, with generations going back to the early Swedish immigrants.

Yay new videos. You should do equipment videos, showing us each of you more in depth. I would like to see your arms and armor and hear a brief discription of the historical warrior you represent. It would be both fun and educational. You guys have such a diverse bunch you could make it a series. Just and idea. =)

[skallagrimm]

@urielwolfblood That is pretty much what we do in our public demos... I could put something together with our equipment, cuz that's a good idea, but our "in person" stuff is just that.

I'd like to ask, do most viking reenactment groups demand that you look or be of Scandinavian descent.

[skallagrimm]

@HawkWarrior2 I can't speak for other groups, but we certainly don't make that a requirement. We've had a mix of different race/ethnicity over the years. The majority of interest is certainly from Scandy folks, but anyone who just wants to come out and take part would be welcome in Skjaldborg.

That might be the most realistic prolonged fighting simulation I've ever seen on youtube!!!
