I'm referring to the type of steel in the weapons. That being said, I am not flaming wushu by any means. I love wushu and totally respect the wushu players.
Each individual has his or her own reasons for leaving WL so I can't give an overall answer for why so-and-so left, only why I did. Thats a story for a different thread, which was already done...
FYI
The breakfall form and the drunken form are two different forms. Both very difficult to execute........

Is your issue spleen qi deficiency? Very common in the US. Is it because your liver is overacting on your spleen?

That's quite an impressive list! With all that knowledge and experience, it seems that the WL newbies would listen when you have something to say...........
Joe Mantis-
Good Call!
Any KFOers in Hong Kong? Anyone going soon or know any PMers who live there?
