    Does it differ greatly from the one I showed? It seem like the same form to me, but I'm noticing numerous differences.
    dfw's form is different than what i saw in the SD tourney video. but i can precisely point out what are our techniques and what was added in. all in all, its a HORRIBLE display of such treasured gung fu.

    when it comes to head huntin, ain't no one can do it better

    It looks a lot like the Flying Dragon Fan form that I learned from the DVD, but with lots of alterations.

    that form seems to be from the Lee Koon Hung lineage of Choy Lee Fut. its a common misconception that all CLF shares the same forms. even when we have the same name of the forms they can be different from lineage to lineage.

    You tellin' me you're not the master of all CLF? My image of you is totally blown now

    Good point though; I should've realized that. I'll have to google that Sifu. I find it odd that there are so many variations but they're doing the movements. Given, I've never been shown a form that was marked and unmarked, but still... I think something is fishy..

    if people weren't sooooo shady, there'd be no reason to earmark or even trademark stuff to keep it out of the hands of people like sin the and jake the fake

    You're right, and it's really sad. You'd think that martial artists wouldn't be criminals these days, but the temptation for glory is too much. Dudes these days want everyone to think they're the big bad@ss without putting any real time in to it other than memorization and watching YouTube.

    That's a lot better and doesn't have the typical earmarks of a SD form that most do.

    I know almost nothing about chain whips, but I'd say he lacks power through most of the form (not all of it; the tornado kicks were done well and the whipping during and after I thought was good). Without getting in to stances and such, I'd say my biggest criticism is not enough speed and power.

    Most SD forms look sloppy. I wouldn't call this one sloppy, but I think it shares a similar criticism of 99% of SD forms out there: lack of speed and power (though, again, to his credit, I'd say 25% - max - has good speed and power)

    HSK, what's your impartial opinion on this? You've got more experience with the traditional weapons than I do, I assume.

    thankfully, once someone touches hands with me, or trains with me, they know whether i can back my stuff up or not. but as a teacher, its not about me anymore, its about producing good students who can defend themselves.
