Single handed drills with the heaviest DS (tinker made, 4.75 lbs, 7.5" POB). Random strikes with random footwork, no usage on waist and leg power.

Hey Lance, I do those same moves w/a variety of different weapons- mostly to get used to the handling differences.

Hi! You know? I only get sensible reply on this forum. I guess because ppl in other forum I posted the video with, dun really practice with sparring and cutting and dunno what I was doing. :)

I was performing a series of "parry and counter attack" with single hand on the heavy sword.

Yes, it really tells how a sword would move. How much latency in starting, how much momentum in stopping, etc.

Good that you know what it's about. :D

Lance, I've been watching your vids for years- it is good to see someone with that much passion for the art, and unafraid to post it up. Kudos to you man!
