Were those Leung Ting trained fighters?
Ed
Correct - how could you POSSIBLY argue with that...
Ed
Simple answer:
wrong!
Ed
So, I guess YOU are then?
Apparently you don't respect Gary Lam which is NOT surprising at all. Instructor of the year, noted authority, WSL instructor for over a dozen years at Wong's school but...
Perhaps YOU are?
Ed
Not at all. this is what I asked (verbatim):
"Is it physically possible for you to "stick" after throwing an elbow?"
Perhaps, for the purposes of clarity I should have said "Is it possible for...
Oh no...I believe that it can stick and follow unless I just hit something with it because then, ipso facto, after the target is struck I will lose contact BUT, I could always regain contact... but...
Yes - if you mean limited by the fact that its a human elbow...
Ed
Sadly, you forget that the original thread concerned the overuse of the bil gee elbow.
Sadder still is your refusal to acknowledge that the only time Gary Lam says that it is appropriate to use...
How nice of you to respond to an answer to a question Tom asked me!
I have the feeling, however, that your answer is completely unrelated to Tom's question.
We'll see...
Ed
Unless your elbow functions differently than my own then its movement is predictable and, therefore, I would be able to ascertain what you can do with your elbow.
Does that answer your question?
...
And WRONG again!
Gary says:
"If your hands don't get trapped, you don't use your elbow."
Try LISTENING to what he is SAYING - instead of what you THINK he is "implying" and better yet what...
[QUOTE=sanjuro_ronin;911779]This is not a WC technique, but I would use it anytime :[/QUOTE
Oh! Secret NINJA technique!
Better than WC!
Much better!

Which, by the way, was the title of the original thread:
"Are bil gee elbows the most overused wing chun technique?"
Ed
No - but maybe you can find more of it on youtube?
Ed
While it is obviously a very valid technique, its not a wc technique...
Ed
Very nice but NOT wing chun!
Ed

He also reiterates that the ONLY appropriate time to use them is when your hand(s) is grabbed.

Sorry - WRONG FORUM!
This is the WC/VT forum.
Why not hop on over to the MMA forum?
(Not that I could open the link at all but going by the URL...)
Ed
Apparently allowed but under stress did NOT show up.
Ed
Why don't YOU stop by your local MMA gym and try throwing an elbow at a non-compliant partner?
Do you REALLY think you could have used an elbow in that exchange? Lastly, you would lose contact...
Is it physically possible for you to "stick" after throwing an elbow?
Ed
Wrong!
You missed the entire point which is simply that under REAL pressure most of those techniques go OUT the window.
