He's probably Wing Lam lineage...
...As Wing Lam's former head Sil Lum instructor, he has the external form as it was taught at Lam Kwoon. I don't recognize the guy, but I relinquished my title there over half a decade a go, so there's plenty of Lam Kwoon people I don't know and who probably don't know me. But I'd say he's still a Lam Kwoon decendent because the moves are all in the right place, more or less. He's about where someone who just learned the form might be - has the pattern but hasn't even begun to do the work - the REAL work. There are many missing details. He could be a video student, but I'm guessing he isn't. Remember I wrote those videos. For the earlier sets, I can usually pinpoint some one who's learned from videos pretty easily. He missed a detail early on that was quite explicit in the videos. Now, he could have just overlooked that when he watched the videos, but since it was early on and since it was explicit, I'm inclined to beleive it was a person-to-person transmission. My guess is that he learned it from Lam Kwoon or a student of Lam Kwoon. It's a shame that he posted it, since it reflects poorly on Lam Kwoon students. We've had much better students, of course. And that queue, that queue just kills me. :rolleyes:
nipple rings and iron body
I'm told that if you yank on the nipple ring of an iron body master, it's like pulling the plug on your bathtub drain. All the qi just pours out. Remember that if some dude in a queue attacks you with bot bo ;) . Actually, I like the queue. We Chings like them. Ok, that's a pun, my Ching is not the dynastic Qing.
Does anyone know what lineage sean_stonehart's post above is from? It reminds me of a mainland version of #5 I once saw - very wushu-ish...
Yes, I recognized the site.
Is that one of Kisu's students? That's what I should have asked...
I should have recognized him...
...we were introduced a long time ago. He's grown. Now that I think about it, I seem to recall discussing adding more flair to BSL sets for tournaments with Kisu. Ah, my memory nowadays...:rolleyes:
As for the Lian Bu, we did it the hammer fist with a flanking step when I was with Lam Sifu. Maybe he changed it. We all have that perogative and he has changed sets before. Since it was a military set, and very very simple, there are so many versions. The queued gentleman who has elicited this thread, his LBQ is very close to Lam Sifu's (at least as I recall it) - the only major variation is the elbow strikes (in horse not bow) and the cat stance down chop block, which is basically the same structurally but has a different feel. I hope that individual stuck with BSL. He's got a solid physique and a decent horse stance. He just needs to find more life in the BSL movements. Too stiff.
