Roßfechten - new video from Arne Koets et Calijn

Salvete omnes,
a quick and short one this morning -
Ecuyer and reenactor Arne Koets and his sparring partner Calijn recorded their Rossfechten/ Roßfechten or mounted fencing ( with swords)  on Arne's horses - Andalusian gelding and Lusitano stallion -  Video.
This is one great video - with Arne explaining the action taking place on the screen.
Congrats to both reenactors and their equine partners.
a still from the video

Also, a video from Schola  Gladiatoria titled 'Objectives in martial arts sparring and real combat' -
Do visit ARMA and the wiki library - Wiktenauer- of the Historical European Martial Arts  for the wealth of information contained therein.
 
enjoy - :)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vi8BafTnQKA - with dr Toby Capwell reviewing the work of Mateusz - apart from the technical information about the reproduced sword et al, I love the references to the Arthurian stories
