slow hand/broken tempo with long weapons?

Does anyone have good examples?
Particularly with longstaff,halberd and two handed or long sword
16th century up in particular,but anytime.
I'm being lazy here but it might save dredging through a couple of thousand sequences again

Thibault perhaps

Hi There

I don't currently have a copy of Thibault - but I believe that L'Acdemie de L'Epee includes some spear or pike in it...

bye for now

Yes! There's lots in Swetnam's staff, usually described as feints, and the English longsword (Ledall) has quite a few examples as well, though they are less obvious to the casual reader
