"Your brain is very smart. You? Maybe you are stupid." Is amazing im taking it.
Whaaaat? A person makes a mistake, and both people learn from that experience with no name calling? A revolutionary concept indeed!
Again amazing video ! No trash talk, no disrespect ! show an error, than explain how to deal with it. Hope the channel gets the attention it deserves from the swords community.
Love your content!
Thanks! Same to you!
A good collaboration to help fencers improve themselves 🤙
The start of that video was amazing! He comes in like a bat out of hell for a second before backing off the "tough act" and showing he's very kind & understanding. He wants to help someone he sees making a mistake often made in a very respectful way.
Not how many do the Internet sadly but much appreciated!
i love the music you picked out for the background
I’m a simple woman, I see a cat in an unrelated video I subscribe.
Great breakdown on some of his mistakes that are also my own.
I'm gonna give her a treat right now just for netting me a subscriber. Thanks!
@@Apperceptive_Swordsman as you should ☺️
Great vid, such a good intro to a simple mistake and how to deal with it 👏
Awesome work as always!
"My brain is smarter than I am."
You know, that explains so much...
Took me to long to figure out you had Eye of the Tiger playing in the background. This entire video I was having a cognitive dissonance of familiarity in a video I have never seen before.
Dang that intro went crazy, but yeah that is a big mistake, I don't want mr Arts to get hit hard in the head. Subbed!
Eye of the Tiger!
I’ve only truly sparred once because I just joined a club but I had it recorded so I could see my mistakes and work on them. I did flinch a bit but it actually saved me most of the time because I don’t flinch tho the side or move my head much but I flinch backwards or I duck and I’ve pulled off some good dodges because of it. Although the thing I have to look out for with it is that I have to make sure my feet keep up with my upper body because I fell once from going backwards too fast and my feet not keeping up
3:48 so smooth it looks like a parry animation (I guess it is)
Great video, the details of safe and responsible training is something that doesn't get talked about enough in ALL combat sports, hell, if it was all people talked about it wouldn't be enough.
While I enjoyed the cheeky title and thumbnail I wish you good luck with the arguments you're gonna attract in the comments, Can't say I'd be brave enough to stir up that nest of bees!
Nailed it, big no-no, fencing 101... always better to take the hit full on the front of the face if you messed up and just own it and try to do better next time, without breaking your posture. Ducking, flinching, and all that crap not only looks bad (poor form and posture) but doesn't really help you... even if you escape that one hit you aren't set up well for a riposte.
Good work. You might have just helped save this guys life
was acutally very cool
I've got a hard back of the head protector. You can get one for 30 or so bucks, and it just straps right in under the overlay. Sellsword is still making a mistake, but if he has the same setup that i do, then he is in no real danger.
I don't think that it's necessarily true that you're in _no_ real danger, as the effects of shocks to the brain stem are somewhat unpredictable. None of the rear protection I've seen for HEMA masks would save you 100% of the time if a powerful blow hit the base of the spine.
However, wearing hard protection for the back of your head is still a whole lot safer than not, and just makes good sense, IMO.
Protective gear should NEVER be a substitute for competence. In fact, in sparring, you're actually simulating unarmoured combat. The gear is only there for safety. In a real life situation that sparring is meant to represent, that blow to the back of the head will be B-A-D.
And here I thought that clickbait title was for bashing at SSA, luckily, you're actually concerned about David's safety here as this comes from your own experience. Thanks Mate :)
He does that a lot. It s a show of bad habit on both sides....it s a sign of lack of control from the person delivering the strike ...but it s also a sure sign of lack of spatial awareness or simply disregard to your own safety when you put yourself into that position every time. This may be due to a lack of practical experience and knowledge of the historical sources but also a bad habit acquired on other "sword related sports"like kendo/kumdo and especially from sport/olympic fencing. From which SSA sin abundantly. The late acute Öberhengen is a valid way to at least present some kind of cover while trying to disengage....abusing it s use may also put you on a terrible position if the opponent decides to literally press on with their sword against your barrier. Nothing that experience and actual responsible/serious study of the historical sources on a more modern competitive scenario application. My two cents.
This is the guy who once said to me that he was right and I was wrong solely because of his experience in swordfighting, even though it made no sense. And now I know that "experience" meant too many blows to the back of the head.
lmao i saw that in a shad video i think
@@Moddiebun That he did, though he touched just the tip of the iceberg when it came to toxic replies to honest criticism.
In that first video David came as an “all or nothing” guy despite having a good point. He made a mistake dealing with absolutes, like a sith, and Shad did punish that point. But Shad also made a mistake by taking clips of David videos out of context. Let’s be real, there is a reason why Shad fell out of grace of other heavyweight of swordtube as Matt Easton and Skallagrim, he shouldn’t be regarded as 100% trustworthy, and yet he managed to, perhaps, humble David a little.
@@ricardodemarco3486 From my point of view: One of them replied to a comment of mine in a rude and childish manner, and the other hasn't given me any personal reason to stop watching them. That's as far as I care, and I believe that's as far as I should care because I'm just a viewer and I don't know any of them outside of the content they make.
@@SaganTheKhajiit now I am curious, what was your comment about and what did he answer you?
great analysis, but I have a different perspective. It seems to be more a gear issue. I come from the bohurt school, and the gear we use is more protective in the back than the front. The back is solid steel, the front is slotted or wolfribbed. Why, if you are all training to 'fence' on the round, do you not have at least plates in the aventail back flappy thing...
in kendo purposefully turning away like that would be considered taking advantage of the rules, and quickly "corrected"
Eye of the tiger, bardcore. Nice background music. Move to face the attack.
Hi,
1. Tennouchi is a kendo principle that is better for the weapons used by kendo.
2. Striking with your sword rather than moving your sword first is asking to get thrusted in the face including when cutting
3. If you're going to train anti- flinch training, you should be using socks or fabric. Even light hits to the brain are bad, especially if repeated.
4. Hanging parries are terrible. Almost universally trash as a defensive move.
5. Colpo di villano is an **offensive** provoking move, not a defensive hanging parry with response.
Your advice to hang and bang is intermediate at best.
Thanks.
Hello,
Im aware that you are a friend of SSA who spars with him occasionally, so I'm assuming that you may have taken offense to this video, and that you may be sticking up for your friend, so I choose not to be offended by the slightly condescending nature of your response. If that is the case, I want to make it clear that it wasn't my intention to humiliate anyone by doing this, though I may have inadvertently done so, and I apologize if that's the case. I was trying to address a problem that nobody talks about, that's all.
1-3: We focused on calibration before any strikes to the head were made. Everyone was gentle. If we do this again perhaps ill consider socks or fabric.
4: Lots of fencers in HEMA use them. I'm pretty sure you have as well. But you're entitled to your own opinion
5: Can be used either way. Either way its usage in this case was just a potential defensive action to protect the back of your head in these situations.
It would have been constructive for you to provide a solution to this problem of your own rather than just trying to qualify mine. Id be genuinely interested to hear it. Considering that you struck SSA in the back after he made this exact mistake in one of his videos, I'm assuming you're just throwing shade at me, and that's fine.
Either way I respect your opinion and you philosophy on fencing as it was presented in that video. Lets not be ugly about these things
Thanks
@@Apperceptive_Swordsman
You are correct in all of the assumptions as the nature of your video in the first place reads as condescending. I am entitled to my opinion as you have used footage of me also.
I would like to add that your advice in using a hanging parry is still in essence turning your back to the opponent, just with the sword in the way.
And yes you are correct, I have this opinion because I have used hanging parries.
Also, my apologies for not making myself clear in providing a solution: make minimal use of hanging parries (leaning to never) and use the 3-4ft of sword to keep between yourself and your opponent, doing as much as possible to keep yourself squared to them.
@josiasarcadia Well, it's regrettable that you interpret my tone that way. But maybe that's my fault. I did give SSA several compliments throughout the video.
To be clear, I'm not suggesting anyone turn their back to their opponent. The advice was a defensive action you can make if you happen to find yourself with your back exposed.
@@Apperceptive_Swordsman mm. I should clarify something: I do try to never strike an opponent in the back of the head, and in that case, he turned his head very quickly. I also reminded him of this when it happened, but as it goes habits are hard to change.
@@Apperceptive_Swordsman I should also clarify that I *fully agree* that it is a mistake that people shouldn't do, however the title was clickbaity when I saw it
Nice music.
Oh now you picked on Daniel!!! Incoming unrelated video from him!!!
There are a lot of good bardcore covers of pop music. Some have singing too, like Hildegard Von Blinging.
@@robinthrush9672 Well his an averge fencer(note I m not saying he is an actual historical fencer...that takes time and study, and commitment to the practice of HEMA...not just setting shop and trying to make coin from whomever walk into your "swordmanship"studio". Miller has been out there attending the competitive HEMA scene for about a year....and his rankings are average as probably most of us out there. Sure he is younger and has a good head on his shoulders and he is in good shape...so he would probably do way better in years to come...IF and only if , he actually pick up the historical sources and work responsibly with them.
🗿👍
Maybe you can desensitize yourself by getting jumpscared a lot too
He has very strange head bob movements in general. Really good fight scenes but sometimes that bobble head is a distraction. Maybe that's his tactic?
It's ironic that for all the jokes made about spinning = bad, Sellsword Arts does the thing that's preached against (exposing your back). Perhaps it's some sense of fear that's making him recoil in self-preservation like when you fight with your sibling but you flail your arms wildly while holding your head back to avoid getting hit.
The problem is, I've seen the way he takes criticism. Others anywhere from Schildwache Potsdam to Marcus Vance to a guy I've seen do HEMA for close to 20 years all got their stuff either deleted or blocked by him. He doesn't take even highly polite criticism well.
Noooo effing idea why no one has manufactured a real~ish knight helmet for HEMA with 360 protection .I know you still don’t want to get hit in the back of the head still
Acceptable use of clickbait lmao
his hema gym has rainbow flags.
looool, lmao even
You also should consider that fighting with swords is not for cowards, so if you're training for combat and your practice is to make yourself unable to attack or parry by leaning back because your tactics or movement is fundamentally wrong. How is that going to get any better if there's a real blade going your way, people who master running away do it because their understanding of offence is solid in the first place. Their evasive action does not hinder their ability to strike, e.g Floyd Mayweather or real life marines performing fire and maneuver. So that's something to consider about for any competitive sports. But if its in the idea that you're only doing it for sports, they can do whatever and say whatever. Because in the end if they're not wanting to be better if they're not going to respect weapons to its prime directive and specs.
if there's a real blade coming your way, you run. Whether you are a swordsman or not. You don't spar with live blades with intent to kill. Just no. This is pointless
@@sakesaurus1706 You clearly cannot read or read what I written in context. But if I talk about what you talk about, If someone with a knife or gun was in your house in your mother's or school being a danger to life, what are you going to do? And you said it right, get the fuck out of my face so that I can go solve the problem. You're a hinderance and the best thing you can do is simply leave the place for others to handle it.
@@sakesaurus1706 Other than not being able to read. What you said is exactly right. You should get the out of my face, and I will go solve the problem. When someone is a danger to family and friends, you're a hinderance who should get the fuck out of the way because anything you will do would be pointless whether you have the training or not. Which is amazing because no matter what you are, it is also pointless and you won't do it successfully. So that's why you should run, social distance the shit away from anything to do with weapons or fighting. I have a point, an intent and tools something that you cannot have.
@@inferna7327 in such stressful scenario you'd just snap to your training with blunts which would make you better than assailant (who didn't receive such training) so no need to stupidly endager yourself. If you are at a risk whenever you spar then you might as well not spar, save yourself the medical bill. Moron.
@@sakesaurus1706 Again, you fucking cannot read. At no point has anything I said described sparring with sharp weapons.
Sorry but fencing without a mask is NEVER acceptable. I don't care about excuses, don't do what this guy do y'all 💪
4:02 Bruh, what. Maybe I'm wrong to read this video as just being about historical, real fighting systems; but that strikes me as though you're slipping that in like it's based on something historical. Firstly, the earliest historical European system we have is i.33. Secondly, what about any of this is "norse" or to do with muh vikangz? This is not at all to say that "experimental archelogy" is bad. I'm a big fan of it in most of it's forms. I'm homing in on the way this little bit is framed with the muh nordic ubermensch bs. Yes, that shit reeks and is obvious from a mile away.
I'm not the kind of person to leave toxic comments, but this shit is kind of yikes
the point of adding that part was about the method of practice, not its historical validity. though it is a real fighting system. and this video isn't focused on history. it's all about safety under modern conditions. i don't know what you're on about
Looks like David’s head is too big for his own good. Some humility would do him good
BACKGROUND MUSIC made this unpleasant to watch. People differ in musical preferences, which change as their musical sophistication grows. I usually listen to background music while listening to voice, but _I_ choose the music, which is usually different from what others would prefer. A video with its own background music makes this impossible.
sorry to hear that. can't please everyone!
The music is very quiet though and doesn’t overpower his voice or anything.
I think it's awesome, maybe a tad lower in the background though
Watch out, he will now make a "totally unrelated" video in response and passive-agressively attack you😂😂😂😂
Lmao found the salty shad fan.
@@Lobster_Lars cry harder
Better a salty Shadfan than a Fan of an narcistic wannabe with little real meaningful content and changeable morals@@Lobster_Lars
@@hugovonpayns9291 Shad is a famous narcisst who cannot take any critisizm from literature to all the way to HEMA. You are just fanboying a psycho who assumes every comment online is about him and starts a drama whenever he can like an immature simpleton. When asked to be confronted in a live session, he hides his tail between his legs and runs. So you may not like Sellsword arts, but the idiot you defend is objectively a narcisst with no morals or meaningful content. So please use few of your brain cells before commenting kiddo.
@@IvanVT27 You are literally describing what Shad did, and push it on Sellswordarts. Shad's whole career is to create drama towards people who do not care about his existance. And when asked to get confronted online to end the drama, he hides his tail and runs. He is also an objective narcisst who cant withstand any critisizm from art to HEMA. Are all Shad fans mentally challanged like you, on level that they cannot even understand reality? Or is sucking Shads as., so fun that, you prefer it to using your brain. 😂
I couldn't be part of a gym that has progressive pride flags hung next to national flags.
Why not?
