In that example, there is still contact as the line of attack is cleared - or maybe it is better to say a new line of attack is created).

One of my teachers refers to this as "breaking in, breaking out," and it's about distance too. As your opponent does his best to play his game and not yours, the range constantly changes - so you're moving in and out of these ranges.
in chi sao, contact between you and your opp. is to feel your opp.force, his direction,his strenght, and his weakness.also his balance.feel his structure of his body and his limbs.always guarding your center, as you use your.receiving your opp. force,than neutralize his force.to me this is chi sao. anything else gor sao, or sparring. or fighting.again just my POV.

We don't look at our partners* as opponents who we're trying to read, or trick, or score on. In DCS we're not sticking or trying to sense the partner's intentions. Each partner is learning to use the elbow to displace the other and recycle the limb for striking, requiring that we don't stick and follow.
its not about trying to read your opp. their is NO TRICKS,or trying to SCORD on.and its not about STRIKING.its about CHI SAO.its about not letting your partner, or opp. entering on you. its not about FIGHTING.its about STICKING TO YOUR OPP.OR YOUR PARTNER.
