I haven't seen much traditional 3-section stuff online.
I know Ying jow pai has 3 section sets... (eagle claw)
Other than that, I dont know of any other styles to use it... I just want to buy one anyways...
Dont want to buy it if I cant figure it out, and Ive never seen it used so dont really know sh!t about it.
But it looks fun...
It's a dangerous weapon, and I really suggest getting some personal instruction with it. I have a permanent knot on my left elbow from learning 3-section staff.
That weapon is a cruel mistress....
Wah lum also uses the 3 section. Gave myself a concussion--then I wore my sparring headgear until I became proficient enough.
Surrender yourself to nature and be all that you are.
Id like to know some more nunchaku swings too... If anyone knows links to those...
Im sure the 3 section is dangerous to learn, Im not too worried bout it tho.
Already got tough ass elbows.
That's how we teach it. At least a month of practice in headgear until you learn some control. I still whack myself sometimes when I go behind my back...gotta remember to keep my head down.then I wore my sparring headgear until I became proficient enough.
bahahaha
Now I really wanna learn it
The spins on the sides of the body while walking sometimes throw me, but I love the floor spins.

The only real trick with flexibles is you got to not flinch. If you flinch, you mess up the flow. Flinching comes with fear and padding your head does little to reduce fear, because once you take the padding off, the fear returns. So for me personally, padding my head never really helped.
When I learned 3-section, I worked with real sticks all the way through, no pads, except for one move where I was required to keep both ends spinning in opposite circles. That turned out to be quite the knee buster for me. So for that, I used a foam 3-section.

I've seen some pretty amazing work with the 3-section, but nothing taped. I belive that if you want to take someone out of a fight, just give then the 3-section and watch them hurt themselves. Anyway SD, I believe it is part of the curriculum from 3rd to 4th (at least as an optional weapon).
I gt the three sectin staff w/ video from mamart (here). It's really good. It basically teaches you a bunch of tricks. My teacher was hanging out w/ his friend when he was abut 18 and the dude was swinging the thing around real fast. All the sudden my teacher felt smething wet splash on him. The dude had wacked his (own) skull right open and the brain was visible. He died.
I do not ever see Sifu do anything that could be construed as a hula dancer- hasayfu
Here you can see a traditional 3 section staff form, from a disciple of the late Master Lee Koon Hung.
