eh, in the end every form of MA was improved over the years. If the improvements are worth sticking they stick...if not they fade away.

I take Gong fu to learn about a new culture, improve my self fitness, and maybe enter in a few tournaments.

It's all about what you get out of it. Not about how authentic it is. (unless you wish to gain the authentic experience I guess...then you can go in search for that)

I just don't think the guy in the video looked as if he was using much power. I wish I could see a real video of how the form should look.

but yeah, I doubt if I posted a video of me doing Chu Ji Quan it would look so good!
