Lets take the next step
I can't express how happy I am to see this up on the Eryndor boards. I want to thank Athron for making this happen so quickly. Thanks again A-Train.
But now lets get started. When I say I think it's time for us to take the next step, I'm referring how we train our newbs, and each other. Currently about the only training people can get is by attending practices and asking fellow fighters to show them a few things. I'd like to try and change that, Its my hope that we can turn this new forum into a great resource for new and old fighters alike.
To start it off I want to post a link for a video that really helped me tweak my right side shoulder wrap.
Wlof pack sparring 1
Peter (the guy in the black and White, wearing the helm) has some great shoulder wraps through out the video.
It's also a good example of how to lead into that shot. You may be asking what does he mean? Well I'll tell you. In the third fight of the video the killing blow is a good shoulder wrap. The lead up to this shot is visible. Peter squats slightly to bring the opposing fighter's Defense down, and follows it by pressing up and throwing the wrap. this lead up causes your opponent to focus on guarding their lower half while leaving their upper half slightly less defended. A great opportunity for the shoulder wrap.
It helped me, and I hope it'll help some others interested in learning/tweaking the shoulder wrap.
