    I'd love to see some of you in costumes or in the gym practicing what we discuss in this forum!

    I'll start of: Here's a link to a page where I'm dressed in a rather inaccurate LARP-replica of a renissanse/late medieval italian noble dressed for the Venezian market. I didn't have a dagger for the picture, but I brought my beloved longsword!

    Very nice, unfortunately, I could not spot the word "bilder".

    Anyhow, check out the gallery and resources on our website and you will see pictures and some video :)

    Hmm. Not that it's a very good pic, but when I've said A, I think I should go through with it. If you really, really want to see a Norwegian in black tights, click on the link, then look in the left column of the page. There is a lot of rabble in norwegian. The word "bilder" is two places, choose the upper word.

    Found it now - I must have been blind!!. Wow, not just a norwegian in black tights, but a sexy norwegian in black tights. I suggest if you are ever going out on the pull wear your black tights ;)

    Louie, are you serious about not finding the gallery ? Check under Resources or go directly to it http://gallery.the-exiles.org/albums.php

    Here's a picture from a winter-gathering where re-enactment-groups from scandinavia (romans to renissanse-re-enacters) meet to exhange blows acording to the nordig "Haerkamp"-system :)

    Here's where I study:

    www.swordacademy.com

    Go to the videos page and there's all kinds of quick vids showing us in action, from padded and aluminum sparring to drills using steel blunts, and a video of our yearly test-cutting. :)

    Nice!
    Do you practice any Fiore?

    No, we concentrate on the Liechtenauer tradition. Our Italian stuff is all rapier. :)

    Best regards,

    Another Living-History-summer-season is over, hope you all had as nice a summer as me :)

    Here's a picture of me; supporting my knight-sire off the pit after we've lost a duel in ground-fighting in a tournament in Kungelv in Sweden.
