From A to Z... get it! :)
A brief informal video showing some (somewhat dated) techniques with the longsword. This is intended as a quick reference for terminology and not an exhaustive instructional video.
It covers:
Oberhauw, Zornhauw, Zwerch, Krumphauw, Shielhauw, Wechselhauw, Kneichelhauw, Blendthauw, Windhauw, Prellhauw, Durchwechseln, Abnehmen, Umbschlagen, and Absetzen (with a few more for good measure) - Sport
Great video! I like videos that give an overview of a full style, very useful.
1:11 , 1:34 , 1:58 , 2:03 , 2:12, 2:25 , 2:44 my favourite techniques!
I’m so glad I’ve come across your channel. There are no HEMA schools around me and I never expected such a useful resource. Thank you
Thanks. It means a lot getting that feedback.
@@DanielPopeScholarVictoria keep up the good work. Your video on Timing, Measure, and Advantage may be the best HEMA instructional video out
@@DanielPopeScholarVictoria you’re still a small channel, but the HEMA community seems to be blowing up a bit. I hope the same for you
these are the best and clearest examples of may of these techniques I can find , however it would be nice for learning and teaching if the footage could be slowed a little so the details of the exchange could be seen
I'm planning on doing a slower breakdown of each at some stage :)
just adjust playback speed through youtube settings. An explanation of how to execute each technique properly would be cool too though
@@ultimomos5918 I plan to do an updated version some time 🙂
very interesting, thank you!
Thank you. Very useful.
Would you ever do a flow like this for sidesword/rappier or dussak?
Master, what feder are you using? It seems very safe
The feder here is a Pavel Moc. It has a flex weight of about 12kg, which is what I prefer these days for safety (some feders have a flex of 25kg, which isn't much fun)
@@DanielPopeScholarVictoria Thank you, I have a fiore tournament which has a very heavy flex. This information you provide is invaluable. Thank you!
@@aanathan0 Ah - yes, I kow a lot of people now using much more flexible swords than some of the options that were previously available - it makes training safer at high intensity, and so is a lot more enjoyable.
(also, not I'm not a "Master" - just a regular old fencing coach :-) )
@@DanielPopeScholarVictoria so humble, but you are quite skilled.
I am still having difficulty to differentiate ablauffen and umschlagen.
Technically the two are in different categories- Ablauffen is just letting the blade run off, Umbschlagen is cutting around to the other side, so you can do an ablauffen AND an umbschlagen in a single movement :)
Could you do a video on Eisenport? It looks dumb and wrong in all kinds of ways and my readthroughs of Meyer hasn't really shed any light on why you would use it. Thanks, really like your videos.
I can certainly look into eisenport when I get time. :)
These are really cool and expertly executed, but it’s all too fast! Maybe a bit of repetition so we can observe and practice?
I'm actually planning to make a new version of this with a bit more of a breakdown of each movement :)
