You haven't studied that long and yet comment on Shaolin Kung Fu and other info?

 

You dont need to train in them to know about them...

 

Thats one of my points that I am trying to make.

 

Because someone is Chinese, speaks Chinese, can accuse people of wrngs with Chinese martial arts?

anyway...back on topic...it's a good technique, and effective when done right...

 

It's actually very fast, so any negative effect of spinning is pretty negligent.

 

I've twice minorly injured someone unintentionally using this technique, just because of timing...

 

in both cases, my partner was advancing in while I spun at the same time.

 

One I caught in the face and gave a gushing bloody nose...

 

the other weighs almost 300 pounds...I caught him in the temple and he went down like a ton of bricks...

 

Both times I pulled the technique after makig contact, as we wren't full contact sparring....

 

If I hadn't pulled it, the results probably would have been worse.

 

So yes, I believe in the effectiveness of the technique, but the timing has to be correct. It's not a technique that should be used just for the sake of using it.

 

Like any other technique, the situation and timing play a big role.

I like the technique.

 

I'd probably use it in a 'real' fight, but it would depend on the situation and my opponent.

So, at the moment, I have a lot of time on my hands....

 

Soon, you will hardly see me once I get back into other routines.
