I'd say for our next challenge (if it hasn't been done yet), you have to make another 3-5 minute video using only your non-dominate hand. To add extra challenge, it must include at least two aerial throws.
Ooooohhhhh....🤔 i like that.  But let’s be honest, 3-5 with even just my dominant hand would be tough without any hand switches and single hand throws.

what if we're ambidextrous? do we do the "tie a rope to a saber's hilt swing it around and try not to die" thing?

Or end. Abruptly.  With a brief sizzle followed by a fleshy “thud”🤣

I am on this. I should have a chance to film a video Tuesday afternoon, so expect a video Tuesday evening. You know, if this challenge stuff is going to get to be a thing, Maybe I shoudl make a section for it in the sub board so that we can keep it all together.

ambidextrous, so im passing on the " off hand " challenge. Took me years to get that way though. Good stuff Elwood.

recorded this before a film session for Relic Wars. Best I could do with the time I had.  The QRC is starting to feel like my own personal style. Really comfortable with the basic transitions I use now. No Little flowers or Plum Blossoms. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

Another great video by Elwood. Inspiring to see you all work.

Ryan, again, love the spear work. I really need to get a 24" blade to use with mine (then actually start trying to use it). I'm a little jealous of your ambidexterity. I'm working on it, but I'm not there yet. Loved the throw at the end there. Grin

Awesome! I love seeing your videos and the way your martial arts training is so perfectly applied to the lightsaber.

Here is my only attempt at it. It was definitely harder than I thought it would be (that's what she said).

Edit: Just realized the video is only 2:55, soooo....FAIL!
