Interesting Question ? http://www.wingchunillustrated.com/2...ighting-style/
My answer: Some lineages are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEe7abUn_90
wing chun is a simple and effective gangster kung fu style but wing chun science is a cult

Excellent answer.
German special forces seem to think it is. Basic hand to hand is Krav Maga. KSK and GSG9 do Wing Tsun.

Well the vast majority of wing chun clips are either
a) Solo drilling
b) Compliant partner drilling
c) Chis sao slap happy stuff
You rarely see
a) Hard sparring
b) Wing chun fighting other styles
And when you do see the above (actual wing chun fighting and sparring)
a) People claim its not real wing chun and doesn’t look like wing chun should look
Does that sound like a fighting style to you?
Obviously he doesn't understand Wck to know what is what and how things works instead stuck in his own philosophical speculation

Open hand WingChun right off the Red Boats was used by highly respected Imperial Marshalls to apprehend criminals at large. A very good reason such an effective (fast hands) art would be appreciated/embraced by gangster Triads. http://yunhoiwingchun.com.au/article...rial-marshalls
Although Weapons were more abundant in the WingChun Arsenal back in the day (skill in using darts by the Imperial Marshalls ) even in the Master Yik Kam lineage an assortment of weapons were used (not focusing on knives or poles). http://ykwc.blogspot.com/p/the-histo...wing-chun.html

I suspect they are more concerned with learning to shoot people than learning empty hand stuff, wing chun in Germany is a well organized well run business, but if this is what the German special forces training is like I'm glad they are normally armed and don't rely on this stuff too much

And much like the seals trained in jkd, what they are forced to train by their superiors doesn't really make the system effective or efficient. Just that it's marketed well
Why does he need to throw that many punches to knock his opponent down?
Should
- 1 good punch, or
- 1 good take down
be enough?
IMO there are different power generation and mind set between
- 1 knock out punch, and
- many fast continuous punches.
The power generation and mind set for
- 1 knock out punch is like to throw out a hand grade.
- many continuous punches is like to shot a lot of bullets from your machine gun.
In battle field, you will need both.
