    Forget double touches, how about double head-butts?

    I'll show up as the paramedic...I don't think I'd fence though...last "no hold barred grudge match just for $hits and giggles" I had, I chipped a bone in my hand. lol!

    Might as well just throw in gunblades or lightsabers too.

    And as for the "headbutt technique" shown earlier in the thread, that is in fact called the "Zidane Maneuver," and is a fast growing trend amongst sabre fencers I understand.

    Leverage. A good parry with opposition requires leverage.

    Friggin Guyart... but he got that touch and 1.



    In retrospect, maybe we should just make fencing more violent. I may have been going down the wrong road with this showmanship thing.
