Fighting Resources [UPDATED 12/22/10]

Postby The Great Gigsby » Wed May 14, 2008 10:34 pm

Is there anything else you guys want to see? Specific topics you want covered?

I'm not promising I'll be able to do everything, but I'll contribute where I can.

Also, you may want to check out the Fighting Forum over on E-Samurai: http://www.electricsamurai.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=22

There is generally something useful over there. We like other game systems, so feel free to let us know where you're from if you drop by.

Yeah, E-Sam's fighting forum is chock full of good info and many of the videos I included are copy/pasted from there. It's awesome how seriously the top notch fighters take education. My hope is that in the next few years, Belegarth can have as many instructional videos and opportunities to learn from our elite as Amtgard does.

I figured since you encouraged Physic to post that video of me getting my * handed to me in a SCA fight, I'll link you getting your * handed to you by a Dragonhood guy! :)

Can't wait till I see you guys at Wolfpack Opener. I'm bringing a video camera.

It looks like SKBC changed domains. I'll see if I can't track down an archive or cache of what you're looking for. If we're thinking about the same thing, they really weren't that important. Just notes meant to guide and supplement the actual lecture. If they're are any other 404's I'll try to fix 'em.

Yeah, if you hit 'quote' on his post, the URLs for all will be in there.

Alternatively, if you're using Firefox, you can right click on the link and select 'copy link location'.

The Dukes within SCA are trying to do training stuff. Here is a playlist of what I've found so far. No all of it works within Bel (i.e. flat snap to the head) but plenty of good information.

This was posted on Youtube this week. While it's geared towards the SCA, it demonstrates some drills that can be used in Belegarth:

1) Number drill on a pell
2) Slow work
3) Attack/defense

I am not getting any links out of your post. Can you post links?
Maybe its in the white box that work is blocking images from. A standard URL would be lovely.

Some * Sword links to help people out.
By * Sword I mean * sword as in anything like min. red sword, hand and a halfers, long blue, samurai ****.
Here's the links for the technical stuff ie technique, theory and focus on the weapon style.

[*]Canadian Fortress Viadrina, * Sword Practice 1 Of 4 - Michael Fromberg (there's some pretty bad background noise, but worth the watch for sure.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpyngcN5R5s

[*]SCA * technique
http://www.scabastardsword.com


Here's some Agility Training videos to help out with the style and any other I would assume.

[*]Outdoor Step Skip training, good conditioning for the brutal style needed to do good in * sword I guess.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7HFtnrE7RA

[*]Kendo footwork, also good for generally conditioning even if it might not be designed for terrain as it's mostly dojo-orientated
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tr-y97j3ePQ&feature=related

[*]This one just for the lolz
