parkerlineage Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 I'm impressed - mostrly. Good technique - he's clearly practiced it a lot, in order to have that kind of muscle memory. As always, however, I'd like to know how much power he has with that; maybe see it on a bag or something.Now, on the other hand, I'd think that it would be effective anyway; getting hit that many times wouldn't feel good, no matter what the power.

Brandon Fisher Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 I am not sure how technically good it is but it looks good to me and no doubt the guy is extrememly fast. I thought my hands were quick. Brandon FisherSeijitsu Shin Do
Yasutsune Makoto Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 i wonder how you get that fast? But, it didn't look like he even hit the guy...so that might allow him to be quite a bit quicker...no doubt the dude has fast hands though. Gi, Yu, Rei, Jin, Makoto, Melyo, Chugo
ps1 Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 Pretty cool! I would guess that the low quality of the camera adds alot to making him look quicker than he is. I'm not saying he's slow...just probably not as fast as the camera makes it appear. Too bad there's only the one video. I'd love to see more.

Sam Posted July 3, 2006 Author Posted July 3, 2006 yeah this is my first post back on here for a long time.... probs my last for a while, just know there are some good people on here who could give me a better analysis of whether or not what he was doing is uncommonly fast for an expert in chi sao?
ps1 Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 Did you post it in the Chinese Arts forum...I bet they could give a better analysis. "It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenius."
Sam Posted July 3, 2006 Author Posted July 3, 2006 yeah thought about it, makes sense as well, but i wanted ageneral opinion actually, just from an MA perspective. The guy is really good obviously, just wanted a random groups opinion.sam
NinTai Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 Hands are fast but....He needs to spend time working on his Chi Saoif you notice when he transitions from the Chi Sao to the strikes thereis a pause (as if his mind is switching gears) before he strikesAlso when he strikes he hunches his soulders, something you have toremind a whitebelt not to do.This is only an opinion based on the vid an only 1yr of wing chun training.
