ABSTRACT:
Scoring equipment particularly adaptable to a sword combat sport, includes a limb target and a helmet. The limb target has a base configured to be worn by a user at a location near a joint of the user's limb. A lever is pivotally mounted on the base and extends to a lever terminal end. The lever terminal end is fastened to the user on a side of the user's joint opposite the base. A locking mechanism is connected between the base and the lever. The locking mechanism has a set condition in which articulation of the user's joint is unencumbered by the scoring equipment. The locking mechanism also has a tripped condition in which the locking mechanism restricts the rotation of the lever relative to the base and thereby restricts the articulation of the user's joint. The locking mechanism is responsive to a force applied to the locking mechanism to place the locking mechanism in the tripped condition from the set condition. The helmet has a visor pivotally attached to the helmet and movable between a first position in which a user's vision is unobstructed by the visor and a second position in which the visor obstructs the user's vision. At least one additional target for holding the visor in the first or stored position and releasing the visor to the second or deployed position is connected with the visor and positioned either upon the helmet or separately from the helmet upon the user.
