Weapons - Saber  (continued)
Two examples of temporarily reconfigured weapons: a Ghost Head saber (upper) and
a Goose Wing saber (lower) both clamped to a longer handle.
The movements done with each weapon (both original unmodified weapons and the
recombinants clamped to a long handle) were   
1. starting from an attention pose with the weapon held vertically in the left hand at the
left side
2. rotate the weapon 90 degrees to the left so it is horizontal at waist level - lunge left
3. reverse the weapon 180 degrees horizontally and lunge to the right
4. slash down at about a 30 degree angle to the right front 
5. slash down at about a 45 degree angle (much steeper and the weapon goes out of the
frame) ending on the centerline at about waist height and parallel to the ground
6. lunge at the camera
