I thought this thread was about who is the best you have seen?? Seems to have turned into yet another pi$$ing match

FWIW As a loyalist, I'll have to say my own Sifu Joseph Man who was taught by Lee Shing. If you're on Facebook, here he is showing some 'water' element (being the Avatar that he is!!)

Also one of his students is uploading clips on Youtube too...

I also heard crazy stories about Joseph Chengs speed and power!

Some bros were quite formidable in my day too, like Barry Lewis and Tony Marsh, both also having learnt from Simon Lau and Wai Po Tang.

From outside the family, I like Anton Thomas' style, Gary McKenzie and James Sinclair have all given their time to promote Wing Chun over the years in the UK! Also Master Wong is an eccentric character and produces some good looking DVDs too...

Yeah, I heard Simon Lau and Wai Po Tang were really good though secretive about showing their best stuff, and I have to say I got a Wai Po Wing Chun tape maybe 10 years back that was really disappointing. I guess he didn't want to show any of his technique on tape, or didn't want his rivals to see his moves.

The best wing chun practicioner i've seen in person is the master of my organization named Jeff Webb his hands are so fast u cant even see them, and you would never guess it from seeing him in person. I am also fond of Duncan Leung's stuff and Eddie Chong

[KJW]

There's a guy in London called Simon Lau, I think he's probably the best I've ever seen.

my instructors (nobody famous) augustine fong, eddie chong, and david grados top my list.

my current sifu, duncan leung, phillip brayer, wong nim yi (in no particular order)

LOL! WSL vs WSL!

PB is correct - understanding the genius of WCK should just take an afternoon -but practicing and perfecting will take a lifetime.

70%, I don't know the context in what he speaks of. If you apply it right, you've hit 100%. So perhaps PB is being humble.

"Total package" is right - you have WSL/PB, Beeny has WSL/Barry Lee, David Petersen has WSL/DP, others have other blends - all packaged.

Hawkins once said to me, "Many create wing chun patterns to sell,
but wing chun has no pattern.
Many sell their patterns as wing chun,
but wing chun is beyond these patterns.
Real wing chun is formless.
We create patterns based upon our opponent's pattern.
We study forms to reach a formless state.
When one has reached a high level in wing chun,
one discovers the variations in timing
and changes in position that are possible in application.
In Chinese, we call this bien faat—variations or changes.
How many spend the time and research to develop
their wing chun to this point?"

That is in the Kuen Po I pass down to my students.

very nice post and very true...

My sifu is freinds with Jason Lau from when he first started teaching in Brooklyn, back in the day. I have heard some great stories about Sifu Lau from my sifu as well.

Sifu Brebos William's Cheung student.

[RWilson]

Lots of folks will list their sifu and/or their sigung. Plus, there are experience differences in
who really has seen what when and how.

You are just upset because no one said your name.

This thread should have been titled, "Whose chi sao do you like better since that is all wc people do"?
