This one's been around for long while now, but it's always a good discussion piece. I think there's a number of shots on this video that not only translate, but work really well for Belegarth. I think the Hip Wrap and Pump Fake are essential shots, I'd say most fighters incorporate them in some way even if they don't call them by that name. I've also been able to incorporate the High Slot, Sky Hook, and the Spin Shot with pretty good results into my fighting style. Anyone else have any experience trying to use some of these shots on Bel fields?

There are some people in my realm who consider that video required viewing.

I think that even if you don't plan on using the shots, you should study it if anybody in your realm is using those maneuvers if only for the bits where they say things like "When doing a spin shot, make sure you move the shield in one of these two ways."

... what should you, as the opponent, do to this guy if he doesn't move his shield properly?

The instructor of that video is Sir Arthon of Celestial Kingdoms. Excellent boardman and has no issues of helping someone progress in their styles. The video is good for brush up or getting some new tricks for your bag.
