You've got the saber. You've got the skills. Now all you need is a costume to bring it all together.  Also, what color is your saber in? |

Mordeus, to be honest, only having it for a week doesn't matter! The only one who determines how good you become, is you! The more time your willing to put in, and the more of yourself you give, the more your skills will advance and increase  |

If it were my vid you would see a Fat middle aged guy running around out of breath.  Beside haven't got my saber yet, it looks like it will be here tomorrow when I get home. |

Ultoria,
great video. Since you asked for pointers though, I would have to say that your hand switch looks pretty comfortable but you seem only to use it to get the saber inverted into your left hand and then right back into your right. Try adding another .5 rotation so you are not in reverse grip and spend some time with the left hand before moving it back over. Even if it is just a spin or two, it will get you more proficient with your off hand in fairly short order.

Thank you all for this wonderful advice! As I move into more advance technique I will absolutely keep this in mind. I've began to enter to combat world as well, so I think all of this will tie in very well. Won't be the last you'll see of me for sure!

Going along with what Cephalus said, training more in your left hand will get your ready for dual-wielding, if that is a direction you want to go. The more you practice with each hand, the easy that transition will be if you ever want to use two sabers.

Surely taking this advice. As far as which direction I want to go, I think I want to do as much as I can with my single saber before going on to wield two. I'll do what I can with what I have, but it would be awesome to go up to dual wielding in the future. |

This was something I made after buying new batteries for my sabers (which have gone without batteries for about two years now). I felt I had to make a video with them again now that they are actually functioning.

Since the OP was about saber fights, I decided to post this: https://youtu.be/5CZw_wdgoi4This is Kendo with Ultrasabers instead of shinai...and no we are NOT pulling punches in this video. |

Hey Darth Tony, Pretty Cool. Did you see the one I posted yesterday? It is several of our students on our last dueling day. They all have a round with me first to set the pace, then other student rounds are set. Various ages, skill levels and experiences are represented. It is here: https://youtu.be/CkmHuNfXqwkSince the OP was about saber fights, I decided to post this: https://youtu.be/5CZw_wdgoi4This is Kendo with Ultrasabers instead of shinai...and no we are NOT pulling punches in this video. |
