The drama of Duellist's heavy metal roots

[Masterurethane]

I knew that the lead singer of Iron Maiden founded Duellist, but the other day I found this, and thought it was absolutely wonderful, so here it is for anyone who hasn't seen it.

It's too bad that he's not in the forefront of developing new products. I can see a whole world of new products that can be profitable for him and Duellist, if he's willing to put in the initial capital.

And he can.

Well they say on their website that they're are innovating new fencing technology. . .

Ah, he can clearly afford it, but I must say, I get most of my stuff from there and have been extremely impressed by it all, so they must be doing something right.

I also love the melodrama and silliness that the intro conveys.

You know I was a fan of Iron Maiden before fencing and I started fencing w/o knowing anything about Duelist or the connection between the band and the sport.

As for the equipment. I havn't heard any reviews on their gear but I like the fact you can have your masks custom painted for an extra cost.
