So some of my Black Tiger buddies are planning to enter this crazy European rapier/longsword/etc tournament in 2013. One of them called me to ask if I wanna join. Not an everyday activity. I youtubed some footage of the 2011 event. Not sure what I think. Same general setup as a sport karate tournament. Three minute rounds, four judges to call

Speed and athleticism seemed to prevail over form. Not that I am great, but I think simple technique would have won several of those bouts...
