Very impressive defense, I feel inspired.

Sparks in the first exchange... only in sabre. ❤

I admit I was skeptical at first but as I've gotten older I just can't guard these younger guys on the court the way I used to so I was desperate for something that could give me a fighting chance. Now while I did get some strange looks and snide comments at first, once people saw how effective the long sword is they quickly went silent....or maybe they went silent because of the blood loss. Hard to say. In any event, once I started waving that thing around my opponents didn't even bother driving on me. I had the key locked down so hard it made Covid blush. And the great thing about the LS is that if your opponents get cheeky and try for 3 pointers you've got enough range to poke an eyeball out, thus bringing a whole new meaning to the phrase dead eye shooter.

good fight！

とても素晴らしいです

非常に綺麗な、素晴らしいものを感じます。

Les lames virevoltent 😮🎉

nice vid

Excellent! Decided to subscribe. Greetings from Poland

I love watched fencers who spar regularly like this. I can tell your ability to read each other’s style. It makes everything so epic!

Perfect! This is very informative. Keep your good work up.

Good work!

Hello from Ukraine! Nice to look your chanel.

Was an absolute pleasure to fence you. A real gent.

whats it like to spar inside vs outside? (the difference)

Nice handwork guys!

Very cool video but the music ruined it (no pun intended)... You should try medieval music, or epic music, it would suit better the background

Right guy (on the start) really needs to commit into thrusts. Left guy got him like that multiple times, but when having opportunity, right one decides to do more swings. And you can see by the way his body moves he's not entertaining the idea and then giving up, but didn't plan on transitioning into thrush while controlling the opponents blade. Still quality sparring, but right one really needs to work on his thrusts, both parrying and delivering them.

Excellent engagement

Always a joy to watch you fence, same with Rensen as he is my favorite high-level HEMAist.

Really nice technique & timing, neither of you seem afraid to get close. Hopefully someday I can approach this level!

I wanted to compliment your first exchanges, but these all are great :) At first three you massacred the poor guy :D

I dont get it? What is the use? No one is walking around with a sword today

beau jeu monsieur ^^

Never fence against sword, thou fence against opponent🫡

Super awesome fighting here

Very good. Additionally, I have found to further protect yourself, it helps to move your body and head to the left (sometimes with a lunging step) towards your opponent’s right shoulder. This allows you to strike deeper and move your body past where their sword can strike.

Excellent stuff!

Very solid stuff

Your partners fall into well-described in sources trap of holding sword too high when parrying, thats why they get hit with mittels. I may be easy to fix - all they need is to loosen up a bit and look less after your weapon, since this makes them to move their sword much too early.

Dude, you're improving! Got some sick actions there. Second intention winden ripostes, vorschlag oberhewen... This is really something!

Any time I see "Arto Fama" in the title of a UA-cam video. If he put out a series on baking or small engine repair, I would watch it hoping to become a better fencer...

nice

Haha, you fancy a bicorno, aren't ya? :D

The very first exchange is the very reason why start with the arms.

0:34 - haha by the book. This works with saber also. And with lognsword too, if we had more mobile gloves (I suppose Meyer has some plays like that).

Your sparring partners sometimes give you passive bind with light pressure, try sneaking in duplieren or auswinden in there, this should work if there is no lose of additional tempo.

Amazing stuff! What feder are you using?

Is there any sort of signal given that the one guy is about to make an overhead stab towards the face? I'm just thinking even with the face mask that would still be really risky if that strike somehow connected

looks like fun and good workout

They make it look so easy but it’s not

lovely catch on the hands and a good save exit! love to see it.

I feel like there were quite a few good chances for the red to go in for a thrust. Good sparring still though.

1:16 was nice.

⚔️⚔️

you guys look so tired.

cool exchanges

Yessssss the Zettel is back!

Great examples taken "from real life".
