Vertical cut practice

Post by Chan Lancelot »

Today we tested out our vertical cuts on various sizes of newspapers roll. All the students learned the specific cut just before testing it. So they didn't have much time to master it.

My try on 4.25" roll with Deva Slayer.

The other students tested their skills at night. There were lighting provided by a friend later on so the video was more "viewable" after 1:18.

Yeah, we have no choice but to stay in order to remain active in swordsmanship. Refurbishment started earlier today. It's gonna be a mess the whole next week!
