Nice vid!

I lived in a zorn-hut for a summer. It split the summer rain in two nicely. ;)

They have one or two more equally exciting vids!  I love that they work at speed with martial intent!

Now this is what I'd want to see in a medieval epic movie- it isn't boring or lethargic at all, that was fast paced and even as limited as I am in my experience, the speed of their movements, the way they hold their weapons lets me know these guys know what they're about.

I've heard the school in Trnava (Slovakia) is good - looks like they were right :)

The Wrath Stroke they show here comes straight from Talhoffer, looks great.  Plus good video.
