Mart Posted May 30, 2004 Posted May 30, 2004 i understand what your saying cross but just as someone that only swings hook is is easy to counter so is the straight blast. I have done the straight blast as i was taught it whilst doing JKD. I find it easy to counter by quater turning and countering. If you end up covering up you can still throw a good low kick and that stops it, in fact you can stop a straight blast by throwing a pwerful counter immediately such as long knee as their rapid forward movement works against them. I think the straight blast is useful but i dont bother with cos i dont need it and dont find it useful for myself, i can make better opeings in other ways. Seize the day!
cymry Posted June 7, 2004 Posted June 7, 2004 The straight blast is a cool name for Wing Chun chain punching. Ever seen a regular Wing Chun punch? Just those over and over again. The reason most novices using the straight blast are easy to counter is because they start it in the wrong range.
