Thanks for spamming us with that right after you *****ed out Coach Ross for plugging his event. I might add that he didnt try and plug his school at all in the same post. This will only help more forum readers to take you seriously Fu-Pow.:rolleyes:

Thanks for the info. I'm gearing up to fight as we speak.

The problem is that I don't have anyone to show me the San Shou rules or what kind of throws, sweeps etc. are allowed.

I hate going into a competition and then being told "hey that's not allowed!"

It seems like they're always changing up the rules so I'm not sure what to train

Wong Tat Mau brought up a "Master Gao" from Beijing to get us started on some San Shou stuff but unfortunately I wasn't able to attend his seminar due to financial reasons.

In my experience they change....including on the day of the tournament.:rolleyes:

When people who have never fought and have no idea what San Da is try and run events, you get some silly results. A certain event recently offered "San Shao", hint, if you can't spell it properly on your materials, what do you really know about the event? Oh, of course, when investigated further, the rules were as silly

My advice would be to stick to events run by "Big 7" people, like Cung Le's "Born to Fight" event in San Jose or the world championships King of San Da USA is doing. Our rules have always been the same;
