Perhaps you are not stiffening up, but from your explanation it sounds like it. You seem to be taking pride in having a very strong tan-sau structure, while our WC strives to be very "flexible". We pride ourselves at converting tan to bong, etc. with "an ounce of force". Our focus is forward, not fighting hands.
