2024 Clash of Steel 史實歐洲武術嘉年華 順利結束🎉🎉
這部影片原本上週就想趕緊剪出來了
比賽結束後的激情固然讓人回味再三
活動辦完後的疲勞卻也讓人癱軟無力
在第一天的活動中我介紹了Gérard Thibault的Subjection/Obliging
第二天劍池預賽的時候有點太過於想用Subjection來作戰，適得其反，導致預賽我雖然都贏了，但是打得不算很理想，後來進入淘汰賽把心態調整過來，盡可能在適當的時機距離使用適當的技術，結果就是大家在影片中看到的那樣，各種花俏的轉身都來了。
所有賽場上的轉身對我來說都不是刻意為之，而是這麼做對手會更難反擊，同時保護我的劍讓刺擊力道卸掉，順勢轉身，也能夠減少體重對自己膝蓋的負擔。
打贏比賽很開心，帥氣的打贏更開心，Fencing like Dancing，賽場就是我的舞廳，無須套招，隨心所欲的完成一場又一場的劍舞💃🕺
2024 Clash of Steel HEMA Carnival successfully concluded 🎉🎉
I originally wanted to edit this video last week. The excitement from the competition lingers in our minds, but the fatigue after the event left us exhausted.
On the first day of the event, I introduced Gérard Thibault's Subjection/Obliging techniques. During the pool rounds on the second day, I was a bit too eager to use Subjection, which backfired. Although I won all my preliminary matches, they weren't as ideal as I hoped. Later, I adjusted my mindset for the elimination rounds, using appropriate techniques at the right distance and timing. The result is what you see in the video-various flashy turns and spins.
For me, all the turns during the matches weren't deliberate; that made it harder for the opponent to counterattack and also protecting my sword from the impact of thrusts. Additionally, turning helps reduce the strain on my knees from my body weight.
Winning the matches is great, but winning them stylishly is even better. Fencing like Dancing-the arena is my ballroom. No need for preset moves, just completing one sword dance after another as I please. 💃🕺
