[quote=@Skallagrim] Fencing is different that gladitoral techniques, as it is different from European longsword, Arabian scimitar and Japanese katana techniques. I wouldn't worry to much Vordy, just enjoy it. [/quote] That is exactly why we all write how the actual stances and guards are executed. I don't have a damn idea what moving one's fist into second position does, other than supposedly parry Melon's attack. Neither do i know what exactly a [url=https://www.google.ru/search?client=opera&q=passata&sourceid=opera&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&channel=suggest&gws_rd=ssl]passata[/url] or beat are supposed to be. The only related things i found are the "passata sotto", which is dodging maneuver, not a parry, and the act of beating away an opponent's blade, which doesn't seem to fit into the context of Sathana's post. I don't mean to rant, but a single post probably shouldn't require more than a few cursory google searches to understand.
