The main thing to pay attention to is the base of the fan where everything is fastened together. That is going to be the heaviest part of the fan and where you should be catching it. I have a full playlist of fan techniques including tossing and catching, you might find what you're looking for there: kzbin.info/aero/PLB_2FAZlJ_bfzfN_7iFs6wDg6z6GcZLXU&si=S0FmtAkU8oGJLly6

Lol - hooked on hook swords 😂

@@sris.452 yes! 😅 I use Dynasty Warriors music with Han Dynasty weapons ✌️

You could say the same thing when a boxer is shadowboxing... but it's okay if you don't understand that either. I'm sure if you pay close attention, you will figure it out someday. Good luck!

@SifuKuttel ... sparring and fighting with 1 or some opponents...is father of skill martial art. Good luck with your

@ you are catching on, keep thinking, you’ll figure it out 🤗

@SifuKuttel ...😁😎🤟

Right now I have two videos and more on the way! kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4nIq2t6hMahjacsi=v1tvqPp4q9Vko1mc kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmGYpGSLmdSKbNksi=2MPf_U42dTsBk3y4

Thanks! All of my techniques and training are from Choy Li Fut kung fu

It's pretty much the same, it's a calabash "bottle gourd" or Húlu and was commonly used as a liquid storage bottle. It represents good health in feng shui, and has been often represented as a magic item in traditional Chinese and Japanese folklore, to pull in and contain people or spirits.

Oh wow! That's a tough one, some places are easier to train outdoors than others. If you are limited on space, then instead of doing large combinations, focus on individual techniques and practice them to develop familiarity, speed, power and then add simple elements like stepping forward, back, or to the side to perform the technique, and then stepping and turning 45, 90, or even 180 degrees. It's more work on your end to get creative, but it pays off!

Thank you Sifu that sounds very logical and reminds me of techniques from Wing Chun and close quarter combat.

😅

The flexible ones are pressed steel with some extreme distal taper which gives them the wobbly effect. Aluminum wouldn't be able to spring back and would just hold it's bent shape 😅

Moves like this make the cosplay even cooler!

Thanks!!! I've actually done some indy stuff with @ArtSchoolDropouts and had a role in their "Forgotten Kingdom" Web Series. My big fight was in episode 5 kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZXdYmVqo82DeNUsi=C_7nL94gm4Bp6cq8

@@ttmm3148 yes, it would work. But for a 3 section staff, I would suggest getting shackles to connect them instead www.kungfudirect.com/accessories/metal-ring-staff-swivels.html

i am 2 minutes late lol

As far as I understand it was a homemade forging project by the guy holding it. I don't have his contact info, but I found him searching Mo Dao on Bilibili

@@SifuKuttel shame. That would be hecka cool to have and practice with.

HA! That's pretty much the design of this one 😅

I think our interpretation is wrong as far as to who's weapon is hooked. Most applications are directly based on the form of hooking your own sword and swinging it around at someone which seems just too impractical to me, more of a last ditch effort at best... however, and this is just speculation, considering that hook swords are used for disarming opponent's weapons, maybe the application is pulling your opponent's weapon away and keeping yourself safe in the process?
