    Wrestling training night at Stanford.

    We have the 3x All-European traditional wrestling champion, Frazer Hirsh...and an up-and-coming young wrestler named Max Freyne over here to help us get started right with the Backhold style. Here are some pictures of our training night at Stanford. This night I worked on judging. The next night I actually did some wrestling, but no kilt pictures from that night, I'm afraid.

    Practicing judging. This is where I declare the winner. That's Frazer on the left in the gray, and Max on the right in the blue.

    Two kilts (myself and Richard) and XMTS's own arboribabe (plaid shirt, back to the camera) pick up on the finer points...



    Richard judging our two brothers who are participating in the wrestling. Sorry for the dark photo.
