Hey, this video was uploaded on my birthday! :D
half step forward and step back.
I talk about that more around the 4:30 mark of my video on DRFA (actual link disallowed by youtube)
Yup, pick up the blade before riposting
Thanks for posting, I learned a lot now I know you must anticipate what the opponent is going to do.
