The Flow is relentless like a raging ocean with crashing waves devasting anything in its path.
"Kick Like Thunder, Strike Like Lighting, Fist Hard as Stones."
"Wing Chun flows around overwhelming force and finds openings with its constant flow of forward energy."
"Always Attack, Be Aggressive always Attack first, Be Relentless. Continue with out ceasing. Flow Like Water, Move like the wind, Attack Like Fire. Consume and overwhelm your Adversary until he is No More"

That depends on who your teacher is, and what has been lost and misinterpreted by WC mcdojos , WC has been so watered down, only a shell of it of it is alive today.
So most of what was in the original art is lost, so most of the routines and exercises everyone is doing are done with the wrong reason and thus wrong results, mostly because the core is never developed first, just a lot of flowery hand techniques that will not withstand much of an attack without collapsing.

Well thats not what i meant concerning WC sifus who cant fight nor teach proper techniques for real fighting. What i mean is techniques that are outdated which were design to fight Hung Ga or Tai chi guy of the day...but not the boxer or Muay Thai guy today?

Kung Fu movies have styles. Fighting has no styles. No choreographed moves. Never had.

True on fighting. Just different approaches to development of skills.
Plus individual abilities and understanding.
I don't watch many kung fu movies.

A silly question. Wing chun is not a collection of techniques.
