Seriously awesome fencing from our brothers in the east!
Nice and intense....

That looks as fun as the music is awful. Why does every eastern european video editor have a weakness for death metal?
Fun to see that there was hardly a single cut to the leg thrown. Likely because whenever someone tries it, they get their head cut off.

Love it! Full contact blossfechten with steel swords and ringen. I would really like to start doing that again.

Dietrich, we're working on something similar (replace the steel with synthetics) down in Gaston... We practice on Weds and Sunday's... Right now we're doing sword and buckler, but we should be up and running with Longsword by mid Nov.
It's only about an hour or so away from ya... Interested?

Look at the nice, meaty throat exposed around the one-minute mark, right after a series of thrusts. They may want to look into fixing that.
No, really, I'm serious. Look at my face.

It helps skinny white boys feel all thuggy. Seriously annoying audio nuisance. The fencing was pretty good though they tend to use very, very light blades for tournaments over there. Some cuts look as whippy as Olympic sabre fights. The ringen was fun to watch, that and the chick strolling across the list during a bout...
