Typically they vary in size from roughly 6ft to 9ft or longer

this is not wing chun but weng chun

@mgk22 I don't know if there is much difference. I just don't know enough to say anything about it.

@@bspi624 there is a difference their not the same style now yes there are similarities i wont deny that and more than likely a common origin but they have more then a few differences as well.

Can you post it?

This is Mr. Zhang Zhi Jiang, the president of the Nanjing Guo Shu Institut in Republic China. He demonstrate the Taijiquan Form called "Bagua Taijiquan" that come from Taijiquan and Bagua Zhang Master Wu Jun Shan (not confuse with Wu Tu Nan).

This Form Demonstration (Mr.Zhang Zhi Jiang) is a construct of the "Bagua Taijiquan" from Wu Jun Shan one of the Taijiquan and Bagua Zhang Teacher of the Nanjing Guo Shu Institut. One of his Scholars is the Master from my Shifu (Master) Li Suiyin from Xi'an. His Form Demonstration in this Video:czcams.com/video/OArqk0blWRU/video.html

That's a good question and I've wondered about it myself. Isn't the pole too long? Too impractical a weapon? It seems like it kind of contradicts the close range nature of wing chun.

Funny. As I read this I was thinking, "Yep. Sounds quite familiar. I wonder what lineage he is from." And come to find out you are also of Lok Yiu's lineage. My SiFu learned from Lok Yiu before he was selected as a private disciple of Yip Man. It's always nice to hear familiar explanations within the family considering how vast and varied interpretations of Wing Chun have become, even just within the Yip Man lineage.

Drew Watkin My SiFu is Lee Che Kong (Allan Lee). He was also an assistant instructor under Lok Yiu for a few years before being taken on as a private disciple of Yip Man.

Lol I dont think anyone in real life would be fighting with poles or swords or anything of the like.... you either have a gun or you have a fist fight. No one hits up the club with a big ass pole, or any pole for that matter lol. A hilarious sight that would be though...

@@andrew_atanasov The pole was used for power training, there is a double end pole that some lineages of wing chun have for fighting techniques.

This lineage is called Wing4 Chun 永春 meaning "forever spring", which is not Ip Man's lineage Wing5 Chun 詠春 meaning "chanting of spring". The video shows the different techniques in using a wood post to fight, which includes footwork, stance, wrist and arm movements, positioning and movement of the post (especially the post tip), etc. The guy has a nickname "king of wood post". He was a true fighter in one of the biggest and oldest fruit marketplace in Hong Kong, where there were tons of gangsters messing with the street hawkers and fruit wholesalers back in the 50s-70s.

B wing This is Grandmaster Tang Yik and it is the longpole of Tang Family Weng Chun. There is a new group about the history of Tang Family and Shaolin Weng Chun on Facebook. The group is published by Master Michael Tang, the heir of GM Tang Yik: facebook.com/groups/1936493169928490/

+Randy Ross why is it laughable?and how do you know it is the chinese army?

dude 1930s in China,we were at war with Japan technically.So such the fuck up you drug addict

Martial arts is for conditioning your body so you're able to use weapons, the Army's also Incorporated boxing and wrestling, sword fencing as well as training with the rifle and knife at the end, in the point of close combat. I think you should do your research before you open your mouth

I'm studying Japanese and pretty sure Kanji is from china

ya kanji is chinese characters

That means "Am am" in Mandarin. Congrats!

lol

There's a lot of back and forth over martial arts history right now, a lot of it because of Chinese propaganda. They have a lot invested in the claim that it's all Chinese in origin, whether we are speaking of Thailand's Tomoi or Japan's Karate. Kind of annoying how many have bought into the Chinese mythological monopoly on martial arts history. Every art form has its strengths and detractions, and nearly every culture has its art.

HAHA
