So I just learned this method of attack from Chinese swordplay.
It's not really a chop or a slash, more like a whipping action - it's really great, but I kinda thought - it depends on the sword having at least some weight to work.
Of course, I did find an answer that works either way, but that'll come later.
What I want first is for all you Star Wars consistency/physics nerds to come out of the woodwork and explain to me why a lightsaber blade does/does not have weight or inertia or mass or whatever you want to call the quality that allows me to perform a whipping action.

Duel Zero key count: Zero! Down to guns and forces. Expect a release soon.
