If you are able to release and strike then they are just plain poor because they should be listening and following you.
Obviously, it's because whoever you were touching hands with, IS NOT at your skill level and also, they probably don't ever accelerate during push hands and lack the skill to follow you.
But, please don't "ROLL" all Tai Chi people into one ball. haha Pun intended.
