Clip: Chen Style power generation demos

[Frost]

Bawang when actually challenged can be one of the most insightful posters on this board, his knowledge is extensive…and his posts always fun to read on a boring day

it’s a fecking LARPER forum for the most part why take it seriously…….if anyone has the right to take it seriously its Bawang as it is his in heritage and culture not ours, and if he is happy making a joke here and there who are you to say he should be banned?

The other one…well how he hasn’t been banned who knows

[wenshu]

Look, this guy is a troll pure and simple. He has absolutely no knowledge of kung fu or is a forum member playing stupid. In a thread in the internal forum he said that a CLF Sao Cheui and Single Whip from Taiji were similar moves....what!? This is what I mean by lowering the quality of threads. If two people with some level of knowledge are having a conversation and someone steps in and intentionally throws in ridiculous gibberish, it lowers the value of of the conversation.

BAN HIM!

Should ban you for spamming the forum with your self-important "I'm the forum police" nonsense.

Someone posts something you disagree with and your response is that they should be banned because it doesn't conform to your banal sense of decorum or somehow violates your overly precious, delicate sensibilities?

I disagree with almost everything bawang says and he is still more informative and knowledgeable than you could ever hope to be.

Finally you admit you're a larper!

bout time all you nancy boy "cage fighters" realized that sport is larping too.
larping with concussions. lol

you wanna fight? pick up a gun and go swallow some sand, that's fighting.

[bawang]

all that aside, how did you come to the conclusion that single whip is like a sao choy?

single whip is more of a pull and a heel palm strike or a set up for a throw.

sao choy is ...well, like you said, a haymaker.

i read some really really old books and they said its a concept of a "whipping" punch with many variations. and in some styles of northern kung fu they dont have a chambered punch, but single whip as the basic punch, and reverse single whip as the reverse punch.
and tai chi manual said its a punch.

Actually, bawang didn't violate anything, he just posts stupid stuff that makes no sense. Apparently you can't distinguish.

It's a forum, I can voice my opinion. I think he should be banned, don't get worked up.

this style near my hometown has a lot of single whips, and almost all the variations. theres a chopping single whip, straight and reverse, "sao choi" one but strike with forearm, a grab and punch, and a punch two guys variation.

im trying to contact them and maybe learn sometime next year

i think you should rub catnip on your penus and stand in front of a tiger

[TenTigers]

Sounds good. When people start in with their penis, I'm out anyway.

THIS is why not only should Bawang NOT be banned, but he should be awarded the poster that has contributed the most to this forum award. (well, if we had one..)

Now we know that any time the "nothing you say has any merit unless you show ME a video" Troll arrives, all we have to do say Penus three times and click our ruby slippers together and "Poof!" he's off like a prom dress!
Bravisimo, Bawang!!!

Thanks for the Clip Bawang.

Makes sense to me as Ta Ji Quan is a Northern system and after all didn't develop in isolation, and from what I hear Yang Lu Chan learnt Da Hong Quan prior to learning Tai Ji Quan.

FWIW (and from what I remember) my Yang Shi Ta Ji Quan Shifu always referred to Single Whip as a strike extending to both sides simultaneously, its an expression of a type of Fa Jin, I think some people call it "through the Back" Jin.
