ZeRo Posted February 23, 2003 Posted February 23, 2003 arnt the last 2 knuckles really weak? thats why you you only condition the first two? surely punching with your last 3 would break them?
Kyle-san Posted February 23, 2003 Posted February 23, 2003 arnt the last 2 knuckles really weak? thats why you you only condition the first two? surely punching with your last 3 would break them? The way you align your wrist and knuckles keeps them from breaking when you use your last three. We covered some of that in Wing Chun, but I was only around for 4 months so I don't have much experience.
ZeRo Posted February 23, 2003 Posted February 23, 2003 interesting, id love to do wing chun when i get abit more time/money on my hands, it looks really interesting.
Kirves Posted February 23, 2003 Posted February 23, 2003 For us a sun punch is vertical and uses the last 3 knuckles instead of the first 2 (requires a new wrist alignment of course). Actually, the version I was taught uses the first two knuckles. It depends on the punching technique. If you punch with the "common" punching mechanics, like in Isshin-ryu karate, Bujinkan taijutsu, or whatever, you use the two biggest knuckles. But if you punch in the Wing Chun way, in which the whole arm travels in a different angle and plane completely, you use the three smallest knuckles. This is because if you did otherwise, you'd have to bend the wrist in an unnatural curve.

kle1n Posted March 8, 2003 Posted March 8, 2003 i like bringing my opponent into a joint lock using his stricking/attacking force or going behind the enemy when he strikes and chocke him out during I bash my knee against his ribs. I wont say the names of the moves cause some people might not do the martial arts I do and they would understand. Be everything. Be nothing.
punkrocker115684 Posted March 9, 2003 Posted March 9, 2003 right roundhouse faje then lunge into opponent and backfist to head(if the backfist misses either try again with the same arm and keep moving into your opponent or do a spinning backfist with maybe a circle kick or something after you spin) it never fails to work for me in point sparring however i dont spar anyone above blue yet lol 9th kyu(white belt)-shaolin chuan kung fu
