don't know who that guy is, but he's got "it", if you ask me...

the early stuff, first minute or so, is definitely very "yin Bagua-like", but later on, a lot of it is very TCC-like; e.g:

the stuff on the couch shows how to go from the downward "split" energy in cloud hands to the "crane beak" strike from single whip
Shoulder @ ~2:50 (very nice! how to get out of a situation when your hands are trapped!)
Press @ ~ 3:00
Elbow into Push @ ~3:25
Snake Creeps Down @ ~ 4:20
Golden Rooster @ ~ 4:45

the latter part seems more xing yi - like...


very cool, nice find!

I saw this guy before, he has a few books out in chinese, he is zhu baozhen

his demo is not bad, unrehearsed - kind of, alternative moves to counter an opponent's counter is good

however I don't like the way that he disregards the opponent's hands and arms, that is, it appears the scope of his martial art doesn't cater for the possibility of the opponent being armed with a knife - he doesn't control opponent enough to be safe, unarmed fights might be ok but there still is too much room for opponent to grab

but crisp and clear and better than a lot of demo out on the net
