Very good work in there! Well done. One think to comment is that I think the synaspismos would be after the back half column came forward,in your case,the back row comming forward. If you try thicken and this way in a large phalanx it will be impossible. Otherwise,it can be used for reference by other re-enactors and groups. A similar video from the hoplitikon of Melbourne: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAjni4Yb0qc and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xb6VV2E5 ... re=related

Giannis you got a point but we are still researching it.
Another issue is if actions were executed from standing into attention.
We still have not come into conclusion on that.
Kind regards
