Bung Bu And Applications Or Abstracts Thereof

[N11]

I was thinking a simular thing, although how does one shift back once their attacking punch has been grappled and you are being pulled towards the fist and the knee.

You only have 1 free hand so you have to either take the arm of the leg.

Punch from the single leg stance can be considered a flying knee attack with grapple punch combination. You can shift back because he is flying in towards you. The shift gives you an extra split second and some working room to counter. To counter, you cannot wait for the person to full on grab you and pull. You have to leak out of the grab and interrupt his attack as he starts, not when he’s about to nail you. This would be the classical response with regard to distance and timing based on our version of Bung Bo.

The example I gave is from our 2 person Bung Bo. You can counter in other ways, as well.

Also, a lot of hanging hand that I see looks like some kind of karate block. If you do kwa sou or hanging hand “correctly”, the attacker gets rebounded back on himself with his own attacking force.
