    What is your opinion on how WC kicking should be done

    Long Range kicks or short range kicks for inclose!

    Smile Question

    Which kick is more powerful and accurate?


    Kicking an opponent with a side kick in wing chun when you have no bridge or connection?

    Kicking and Opponent with a side kick as you jut sau?

    I'm guessing this is probably a difference in lineage, but in the last "section/third" of Chum Kiu, the Dim Gerk (or w/e you prefer to call it) before the double di bong sao...you have a "bridge hand" out when you do that Dim Gerk?

    Both of the last kicks don't have a bridge. Both are with your elbows back fist in arm pit

    The Forms, Muk Yan Jong kicking technqiues and kicking drills in chi gerk all teach you to kick once you have a bridge...Controlling your opponents bridge or structure allows you kick low easier...since he is unable to escape!

    Its simply a principle...Its hard to put into actual application unless you drill it and practice it relentlessly!
