    New Book On Triple Stick vs Spear by Rick Wing

    I remember our teacher, Wong Jack Man, especially liked doing this form. Near the end of each class at Jing Mo was usually when he got into the two-person weapons sets. I remember him teaching this set with such enthusiasm. Sifu Rick Wing teaches it pretty much exactly how our Si-Tai Gung, Wong Jack Man, used to do it.

    As with his previous book, Shaolin #5, you can actually learn the set from studying the book. It is clearly written and the photos show front and back views. The set really can be learned in detail by looking at the photos, and perusing the text. This set also pretty much shows almost all the ways one might actually use a triple stick in practical fashion.

    Below I've posted links to Blue Snake's website and some videos of Sifu Wing performing the set with our fellow Si Hing Remus.

    Cool

    I'll have to check that out. I used to love that set. Herbox and I got pretty proficient at it back in the day. Blue Snake usually sends me reader copies.

    SLF,

    Yes this is by the way a gook book. I always loved this particular set. WJM has three triple staff vs Spear. In Mr. Bucky Wing' s book it is a Jing Mo Northern set and is not a BSL set. This set in the book is found in many different northern styles as it was taught in the Jing Mo Association in Shanghai where many masters attended.

    WJM has two other triple staff vs spear sets, one from BSL and the other from BSL Lo Han.

    I had no idea. Did WJM ever teach the BSL and BSL Lohan sets to any of his students?

    SLF,

    Of course Wonmg Sifu did but as time goes by the curriculum is taylored down and the later students never had an opportunity to learn them or even know that they exist.
