yes, very fair

o men, are you comming this year to wessex?

@@jarekchrzanowski6897 Maybe Andrzej and myself will come to Exeter but we are not 100% sure yet

no. one of fencers fighting in final dont allow to share...

Left hand parries tho 👌

Few xxGB of data is waiting for upload. Also whole Rostock. And Albion is coming ;-)

taa, dzieki takim a nie innym zasadom jodnorecy bandyci ;-) na zawodach w Polsce mają się świetnie. Nie jestem fanem ale co ja tam wiem o długim mieczu :D

the reason they treat it like lightsabre tag, is because the rules allow them to, and I would say even encourage it :/

when is "double" hit so hit from both sides...is few rulesets even in one country, but general rule is stay alive ;-)

no, this is simply duel. HEMA is fencing with copy (this same size, weight, balans) of historical weapon

Due league rules most popular is kvetun easton sabre

Kerri is very, very, very nice person. And i care only my own limits - i'm old, fat and ugly...but i love sabre...and Kerri also - so i don't care. And i preffer Kerri sabre - then David's (sorry David if you see this, but this is true). HEMA is for all and...If you fighter, HEMA fencer...fighter...fight with Kerri is very demanding. Yes, i'm better but this is a challenge, every time, to show this in good style. I know a lot of fencers - good, very good and no so good, and i dont care who is who in ranking. i'm trying be better fencer and better man, and only this count.

yea, not s bad ;-)

head - 3 points, thrust to the body - 3 points, rest - 2 points

Yes :)

Cuphilts are better for finger protection, fencing masks are completely out of period. Are you 100% sure that no one was jumping during the entire age of rapier? And even if, then how many jumps in a row you propose be penalised during the tournament?

You can't ban jumping around in a tournament and it would be pointless. You have to and can deal with it as an opponent. It's just not beautiful fencing, nor is it particularly multi-faceted or technically demanding. It reduces fencing to a sporting component in which you essentially hope to be more athletic than your opponent. Ultimately, it excludes a crucial part of HEMA: the understanding of the martial art in the sense of a historical reappraisal. The difference to modern sport fencing, which is all about scoring points in a match, is then very small. However, a tournament can very well be seen as part of research in the sense of HEMA without being sport fencing.@@kwaks9486

Cuphilts provide more protection, but that's exactly the point: this protection allows you to fence differently than was actually possible under a system that was developed earlier. Yes, a tournament is always a compromise and that's ok and can't be done any other way. However, the fact that some people in this tournament don't seem to make any effort at all to practise the martial arts fits in with this... It's just a shame to see, because for some of the participants it obviously spoils the fun. There are indeed very successful tournaments with fencers who endeavour to use clean technique. Here, the desire to hit seems to take precedence over everything else - including not getting hit.@@kwaks9486

now i'm uploading old sabre videos but i'll return to Taunton soon ;-)
