I love this drill! It’s so nice and flowing and I love the way once you get used to the movements how you can string it into itself in different ways and also add in other movements.
Your method of breaking things down is actually super helpful for me to understand the proper mechanics of wheeling strikes. I've always struggled with grasping the movement of them, but having your multiple viewpoint demonstrations and slower demonstration made me realize where I'd been faltering. Excellent video!
You are excellent at instructing. Thank you! The way you break things down, demonstrate and explain make this very attainable. I love that this is scalable as our skills increase. Thank you so much.
This is really interesting because I’ve been learning it with a behind the head slash for the 1st follow up to the stabs, but i do sometimes find myself swinging into your variation, when i’m increasing in speed, thru the drill.
Yeah in the original it starts with a cut going into the thrust from the other side. But that initial cut disappears when you repeat the flow on one side. Once you switch direction that initial cut returns but here it is omitted and replaced with the over the head turn of the blade
With some slight adaptations, this also looks like a great excercise for Montante! What I enjoyed most about this breakdown, was the very consistent pace that was kept throughout the explanation.
@@Tibblewinkles thank you so much 🙏🏻 yes allot of this translated well into montante. Im currently working my way through Figueyredo’s simple rules and the big difference im seeing is that cutting from the non dominant side works best with uncrossed arms and that the footwork is generally full passing steps or stationary
@KeomegaManAtArms you are definitely spot on with the footwork! The montante just ends up moving you for the most part! Though for some reason I always find it easier to do crossed arm rising cuts from the non dominant side, than non crossed. I'm still figuring out why. It could very well be a less developed group of muscles.
@@Tibblewinkles yeah true edge rising cuts from the non dominant side is very comfortable with a longsword and unarmored but that’s why i try to do my montante practice with a cuirass. that will make want to you use your false edge instead because you have less space to cross your arms

Love this! I saw you doing it in one of your instagram reels a few years ago and learned how to do it from watching it a hundred times!
Thank you! And that’s amazing! Hopefully this is helpful to others too
