Ian vs Žiga | Finnish Brutality 2022 - Day 2 

I feel like time has stopped when I compare myself to the two of you.

I wonder how many competitors were sporting WWSD-derived rifles this year. I saw more than a few: it seems to be spreading!

You killed it bro!!!

Nice calves bro.

In colder weather, molasses doth flow slow!

There should be some sort of honorary award for the cameraman, for putting in all the work.

I met Jan at IWA. He is dedicated! And also a nice guy! :)

Yeah, it is so much better than many channels. Other shooter videos frequently have to yell at camera folks to GTFO of the way.

That cameraman is the real MVP of Polenar, he just goes right under the truck with Ziga, and never loses frame...

@@BeingFireRetardant Jan is a beast! He also went behind me in the muddy underground tunnel at the Infantry shooting competition. He goes above and beyond to get a good shot :)

@@BeingFireRetardant Jan, the camera gobling, making sure to record Zigas ass the whole time.

Thanks! :D

The Machine went before me and on first two tries he was able to jump the bar in a similar fashion as Ian but then he fell 2 times and tore his biceps. When i saw that i decided to do it in a safer manner :D

Jan is a beast, we call him our camera-ninja :)

@@PolenarTactical He's your camera gobling, while his work is obvious but he's rarely seen himself. Give him milk and cookies so he stays.

Whole brutality competion is pretty much straigh SRA-shooting. Sovellettu Reserviläis Ammunta. Improvised Reservist shooting. So whole idea there is to have tactical shooting/action situations what soldier could encounter while competing against your buddies. So there is no need to mask it with anything to make it look like there is no military involvement. because whole thing is straight from military for reservist to hone their combat readines as hobby. SRA vs IPSC is pretty much orginal vs civilised version for masses.

I completely agree that the sport shooting scene in western European countries is very "we are only doing this for sport" oriented, as shooting federations' main objective is the World championships and Olympic games. Only in central Europe and scandinavian countries + Finland, where there are large volunteer reserve forces, the main objective of practical shooting can be openly "we prepare to repell invaders, and we enjoy doing it". This "recon division" could pass as a best "Ranger, Jäger, Commando (whatever one would name it) NATO competition".

@@jean-pascalesparceil9008 Absolutely correct.

Yah, in Estonia we got tired of the lycra-IPSC (Big and 1/2 size together look like mom and cild - nonsense) and adopted SRA. Got gear? use it.

Yari --> Jari

or imagine the anti-tank guys... running with a 2-pack of apilas rpgs or nlaw sheesh

You are awesome

Thank you! I agree, it would be more fun to watch than biathlon :D

same person - Jan, our camera-ninja

Chaikovsky-tier

@@PolenarTactical Camera-ninja has to be one of the coolest names ever for a film/editor work.

This one is for the birds.^^ - Norm

@@kentuckybeararms true

@@PolenarTactical what did you think of Ian putting his can on his weapon light?

@@docternoblex it like made for it 😁

Well, in the end that is the only thing that matters when not dealing with specialized situations.

Thanks! I'm proud of that one :)

Thank you! That's good feedback for our future projects. Is anything specific about this video that you prefer over our other content?

@@PolenarTactical Imo, besides the great filming, it is capturing the whole match atmosphere. It doesn't try to oversell and instead of all stages in a row there are those breathers that show your suffering and we suffer with you guys while we reach for a drink that' a bit too far to grasp comfortably. When there is something broken or those short interactions in between that aren't too forced like with Mike, Jari and the polenar crew it just goes down like butter. I missed those behind the scenes overall atmo material like sitting around drinking from a finnish sausage or some activity you try even if it's just a few minutes. That can be just eating in between stages together like we sit with you guys. Seeing Manca is always nice A genuine shorter action may be better than you have a few minutes till the next stage and you have to get some content. From your Lynx brutality I also watched the booth video from some guy filming. Last time was the first one and quite hectic behind the scenes, maybe you can have someone be there and capture some products as well. Btw, even if you're not Rammstein, you can film all the hard work and the teams setting stuff up. It looks good and sparks interest in the upcoming match videos.

@@PolenarTactical I'll add this one really gave a sense of how the combo of running all that distance, and the drive to give it your all on each stage left you utterly wasted, mentally and physically. That knee pain (possibly diagnosed by now) seemed similar to what I get on the right side also, Iliotibial Band issues. A sharp pain just beside the kneecap, towards the outside. It's really put a damper on my running, as 5k will set it off no matter how I try to avoid it.

@@PolenarTactical Yeah, Ziga, to answer your question... In this video there's an honesty that came from absolutely being pushed to the limit. You didn't have the energy and the bandwidth to 'make content'. Instead, you gave us the events of the day, unfiltered by comedy, just the raw conversations. You had to ask your wife for a sock to stabilize your leg. That's as real as it gets. You were knee deep in the suck, you embraced it, you pushed through, and you even surprised yourself with how well you did on many stages. It showed an impressive work ethic and drive. Just like your interview with Samo and Ian, a while back, revealed your depth of understanding of all things firearms and the industry in general. It's good to see the different facets of what you guys bring to the table. This was less of a normal Polenar Tactical video, and more of like a Rocky movie, if Rocky was a war documentary. With all of the exhaustion and frustration, it created the purest form of content. The kind that resonates because it's just gut level honest. (And your cameraman needs a raise, but you already know that...)

@@VosperCDN Yeah, it was the Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) I had it before, that's why i knew it's probably nothing serious and pushed through despite the pain

Then you are too simple:)

Thank you. This is great to hear because at first i thought the video will much worse. I just didnt have any energy left, i was always grump, and was constantly annoyed by our camerman. Im glad that the video shows this in an entertaining and interesting way 😅

@@PolenarTactical not to worry. It was a great watch. And your grumpyness just came naturally after doing a really brutal event. And it made it all the more entertaining. 😂 Have some beers. You've earned them. 😂

Need more fake idf jokes

@CERBERVS shoo

@CERBERVS Don't be so serious!

@CERBERVS Haha ... I must admit ... it turned me on a tiny bit 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@CERBERVS good

People are oblivious to run-walk-run being taught in spec ops

I had this before by rucksacking with a lot of weight and it's nothing serious, that's why i was just enduring the pain and pushing on. If my ACL started to hurt, i would stop. That could be a very serious injury

I found it, it's called a "runner’s knee" or iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS)

They do that to prevent the pistol from flagging other people.

I had this before by rucksacking with a lot of weight and it's nothing serious, that's why i was just enduring the pain and pushing on. The medical term for runner’s knee is iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS)

Thank you! This was not my best shooting performance, i got too much penalties and that made a big difference in my overall score

@@PolenarTactical And run faster the Ian too!

that's a big censor bar

Only Žiga:)*

Thank you! This is good feedback and we will keep that in mind for our future videos

Thank you

Thanks!

Any training is better than no training!

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UP7A6UIxo-8.html You're gonna get drone striked before you fire a single round, vatnik :)

Why are you following me? Are you a butthurt balt from Butthurt Belt? What's the point of showing me this british propaganda montage? I'm a drone operator myself and using quadcopters to drop handheld or 40mm frags on people is one of the most wasteful and useless things you can do with it. In all likelihood, at least a month of time and 2-3 drones were lost in making this minute-long video of inflicting horrible casualties (5-10 dead, twice as many lightly wounded, about as much as I can get in 5 minutes of using one drone to guide mortar fires). Sure, it looks cool, like in a vidya gaem, but so did the Reddit Legion back before their barracks got Kalibr'd. At least the Finns are showing off actual relevant martial skills.

That war only comes if you cross the border. So no worries man, keep yourself fit and safe.

😂

Fizzy drinks from Varusteleka, i think these are only available in their bar

boring as shit :D

perfectly understandable 😅

@@PolenarTactical I mean, we all saw what we all saw in the last video... 👀👀👀👀
