Grandmaster Paulie Zink

[Seppukku]

This is my Sheemhan Grandmaster Paulie Zink. My sifu grandmaster sensei told me all about him. He's really good. I know some people here think he's a fony, but still, he's very good even if you think he's totally fony:

Are any of you guys this fast and flexible? I don't think you are.

Now, I can't tell what he's doing in this one because of it's so dark. But I'm pretty sure it is SWEET!

It's funny, a while back a friend of mine and I had a bet, and to win this bet I took a Gynmast and taught him 3 months worth of "kung fu".
He won every single forms competition he entered.
Couldn't fight worth crap though.
I did win the bet and went to the local rub-n-tug and much fun was had by all !

I used to be that fast... didn't have the flexibility though, haha. Looks like modern wushu monkey staff (though a bit slower and with slightly more clowning and less technique) combined with some self created performance moves that take advantage of his own unique flexibility. It's easy to see how he'd win all those karate forms competitions though. It's pretty entertaining and he can swing that metal stick around pretty well

i think it was because when chan sau chung came to north america who called paulie a fake and a fraud. and since chan is obviously not a fake and a fraud everyone just took his word for it.

As my si-hing is the person who gave Paulie Zink a copy of Chan Sau Chung's book and was around at the "beginning" I can tell you without any doubt that Paulie Zink is a fraud, and is aware he is a fraud.

He had all the classic signs of a fraud

1) Originally, the identity of his teacher was a "secret"

2) Later, when that wouldn't "fly", he created a person who is supposed to be Chan Sau Chung's senior The fact that NO ONE has ever heard of this person, in TSPK circles, should raise obvious questions

3) One day, Paulie Zink has NO INFO on the system or it's history. After my Si-Hing gave Paulie a copy of Chan Sau Chung's book, Zink seems to have "remembered" the history, and SURPRISE! it seems to be like a word for word translation of Chan Sau Chung's book!

4) Paulie Zink's book clearly plagarizes Chan Sau Chung's book

5) Despite the fact Paulie Zink asked my Si-HIng in the 1980's to deliver letters to Chan Sau Chung (in which Paulie asked to become a student), in the 1990's Paulie claimed he was never aware of Chan Sau Chung's existance

All this being said, I have personally met Zink's student who is here in NYC and he is a very nice guy. I do not hold the student at fault for the sins of the teacher
