HEMA Sparring in FULL PLATE with Longswords

It's amazing to watch folks fight in knightly armor, using techniques from medieval / renaissance manuscripts. They have to be very methodical, targeting weak points in the armor. Historical martial arts instructor Devon Boorman explains which target areas are valid, and how fighters need to follow through on their hits. The fighters: First fight - Ben Davis (left) vs. Sander Dijk (right) Second fight - Travis Smith (shorter) vs. Bryan Kazun (taller)    / @academieduello   https://www.academieduello.com/   / pathofthesword     / academieduello   Video lessons: Duello.TV Background music: 1.)
