This is precisely why, you'll find Terence and I actually agreeing in regards to bridging etc.. as of late. IE destroying the bridge, controlling COG, not rushing into a SAAT timeframe without a safety belt, bai jong, maintain a WC guard, etc.. etc... etc... These are all well documented HFY concepts too.
On the subject of TWC...
Robert even went so far recently, to explain how his WC punch was adopted from his experiences with TWC and learning about their punch structure.
Therefore, one can conclude that perhaps if he had had the indoor experience of learning about the TWC entry technique as well, you wouldn't have Terence and company posting about this technique in such a manner.
My point is, if you knew about the history behind some of these "CSL" methods, you wouldn't be so quick support some of the negative energy found here.
Your posts are obviously more neutral, however they still support and add fuel to the fire of ignorance being expressed.
Also... FWIW....
It's ridiculous to criticize a technique (as well as be so disrespectful to the GM of TWC), when it's being expressed against the dead energy of a wooden dummy.
After all... you did imply that it was made up.
Questioning is one thing. Promoting ignorance is another.
