Ouch, that punch, especially in slow motion. OUCH.

[@spinningdragontao]

Yep, that just about sums it up 🙂

[@denizhuseyin5191]

Thank you for the clear explanation of the technique and the slow-mo. A nice example of a seemingly innocuous but effective punch to the chops!

[@spinningdragontao]

Thanks for your kind comment. Indeed an innocuous punch the chops hurt like hell 😂

[@markdonovan1540]

Nice chop to cheek! It was like Ray was playing a canon shot from billiards! I don't remember ever seeing this application before. It's excellent video, especially with the different angles and slow-motion.

It caught me on the jaw. It was bloody painful lol. The whole days filming was painful to be honest. At one point I was convinced a trip to hospital was on the cards but thankfully we managed to avoid it and swap it with plenty bruises instead 😂

@@spinningdragontao You're tough to put yourself through that. I can still remember being on the end of some of Ray's demonstrations! I've had taken a few blows over the years, what with Judo, Kung Fu and Tai Chi it was inevitable. I guess if it doesn't kill us, it makes us stronger... 🤣🤣

[@spinningdragontao]

@@markdonovan1540 Yeah... Not sure I agree with that statement... I'm pretty sure maimed is not stronger lol. Indeed Sifu has a way of demonstrating and that has never changed despite the fact that he's 70 this year 😱😂🤦🏼‍♂️
