@temmy9 EXACTLY.

This demonstration is fine to me.

The problem with demonstrating with intent is that as you amp things up the technique will naturally suffer. You wont actually see the technique he is trying to display, only an approximation of it as the body adapts to the situation. The time for intent is in training to apply the technique, not in demonstrating its ideal form. When demonstrating technique its entirely appropriate to keep things slow to see how the technique is to be applied.

@DiabolusIgnis Good luck in you're training.

[DiabolusIgnis]

@0000030z You missed my point. I'll make it more clear... The demonstrated technique wouldn't work, since it lacks intent. You use that intent in a fight, and so it does work. So it's basically the same technique, with intent. Got it? As for me, I'm 18y and train in SESH, under Guy Windsor. I practice the basics, dagger and longsword, and have taken a course of sword & buckler.

@DiabolusIgnis part 2 of my rant.......

Until I know some more details I can only say that you're wrong because I use these techniques in a fight. And while intent is a legitimate part of any fight, so is deception, or projecting a lack of intent. SO on the one hand you're opinion nay be perfectly valid from whatever background you have, it isn't from mine.

And finally, I keep saying it I know but it's very important., I use these techniques in actual full contact fights using steel swords. Ok?

[0000030z]

@DiabolusIgnis Again, you missed the part about it working because I use it in real fights. You say it won't work, I do it and it does work. My immature "do it yourself" stance is regrettable, but quite frankly I am tired of discussions about martial arts that end up being based on some 14 year old's favorite Anime cartoon character and not even remotely real practice. I don't know who you are, or where you're opinions come from. DO you train? With who? In what? continued......

[DiabolusIgnis]

@0000030z I am fully aware that this is a demonstration. Don't take me for a fool and start stating things completely obvious, even though I happen to see some fault in your demonstration. But the problem in the demonstration is that it demonstrates a way which doesn't work. You know you need intent, which is why it works for you in a fight. People seeing this video see no intent, which is why it wouldn't work for them. And the 'do it yourself, or I won't listen' argument is quite immature...

[0000030z]

@DiabolusIgnis

It's a demonstration of technique. The intent was to demonstrate the technique. If you are able to see the technique then I accomplished what I intended. And it still works in a fight. I used it this past weekend, fighting.

Drop me a line when you post your version of the technique and I'll have a look.

[DiabolusIgnis]

@0000030z Btw, shouldn't you always block with the edge on flat, since that's way stronger?

[DiabolusIgnis]

@0000030z I believe this response was meant to me. Lucky I stumbled upon this video again. What I meant was, you seem to lack intent here. The attacker should never expect a remedy, unless that's what he's planning on.
