Took my rapier saber for a spin and it inspired me to add a bit more fencing moves and thrusts into my usual style. It has been a while since I worked with moves like this, but I was pleasantly surprised by the integration. Set it to Peter Gabriel.

Very nice vids and tutorials!
With how much I use the Riposte skill on my Jedi Guardian in SWTOR, I've been doing a lot of thrusts lately in my own "test spins" (especially with my Gladius).

This is a new thing I am trying to pick up. It involves tossing the saber from the outstretched right hand and catching it behind or slightly over the head with the left. I picked this up from a M. C. Smith video. I am trying to carry it through into other moves. This footage comes from my second practice session with this move.

So I was struck by a couple questions. Can you dual wield crossguard lightsabers? Yes! Are they heavy AF? Yes! Do you end up hitting yourself with the quillions? Not if you hold them right. This is a collection of clips from a 15 minute practice session. Hope you enjoy.

yowza! and I thought dual wielding was heavy enough as it is, good work!!! Been watching your vids (both the old and then revamped when they came out) when I started learning.
Music is nice and heavy too. I know it but I can't figure it out... Nevermore? Jeff Loomis? Arch Enemy? This will bug me for a while...

It was some canned royalty free thing youtube suggested. I figured it fit well enough. I think I was listening to God Lives Underwater, while I was shooting this though.
