This has been worked over on another forum already…

If you don’t like it don’t study from him 
no power in it what so ever
stances are kind of high
back sweep is very high, guy need to stretch more
form is very clear, but would be better if he had power in it
He’s probably Wing Lam lineage…
…As Wing Lam’s former head Sil Lum instructor, he has the external form as it was taught at Lam Kwoon. I don’t recognize the guy, but I relinquished my title there over half a decade a go, so there’s plenty of Lam Kwoon people I don’t know and who probably don’t know me. But I’d say he’s still a Lam Kwoon decendent because the moves are all in the right place, more or less. He’s about where someone who just learned the form might be - has the pattern but hasn’t even begun to do the work - the REAL work. There are many missing details. He could be a video student, but I’m guessing he isn’t. Remember I wrote those videos. For the earlier sets, I can usually pinpoint some one who’s learned from videos pretty easily. He missed a detail early on that was quite explicit in the videos. Now, he could have just overlooked that when he watched the videos, but since it was early on and since it was explicit, I’m inclined to beleive it was a person-to-person transmission. My guess is that he learned it from Lam Kwoon or a student of Lam Kwoon. It’s a shame that he posted it, since it reflects poorly on Lam Kwoon students. We’ve had much better students, of course. And that queue, that queue just kills me. :rolleyes:
If that bugs you, check out his nipple ring here:

nipple rings and iron body
I’m told that if you yank on the nipple ring of an iron body master, it’s like pulling the plug on your bathtub drain. All the qi just pours out. Remember that if some dude in a queue attacks you with bot bo 
. Actually, I like the queue. We Chings like them. Ok, that’s a pun, my Ching is not the dynastic Qing.
Does anyone know what lineage sean_stonehart’s post above is from? It reminds me of a mainland version of #5 I once saw - very wushu-ish…
Gene… it’s from Sifu Kisu’s school in LA. www.harmoniousfist.com
Yes, I recognized the site.
Is that one of Kisu’s students? That’s what I should have asked…
Marks in sets
If you look at his Lien Bu
LIN BO KIN (Practice footwork)
He does a side step #8 & 23 Grabbing hand, hammer strike When SilLumKid and I where looking at the vids, He said we do not do that in class. I will ask Wing Sifu? Wing Sifu, said “we do not do that in our class” But I did ask Gene today and he remmbers doing a side step though. So I gess it can be ether way…
Note: When I got the set We did not have the side step… As for the one I teach now. Jing Mo Version
~Jason
Yes actually it is Sifu’s son.
I should have recognized him…
…we were introduced a long time ago. He’s grown. Now that I think about it, I seem to recall discussing adding more flair to BSL sets for tournaments with Kisu. Ah, my memory nowadays…:rolleyes:
As for the Lian Bu, we did it the hammer fist with a flanking step when I was with Lam Sifu. Maybe he changed it. We all have that perogative and he has changed sets before. Since it was a military set, and very very simple, there are so many versions. The queued gentleman who has elicited this thread, his LBQ is very close to Lam Sifu’s (at least as I recall it) - the only major variation is the elbow strikes (in horse not bow) and the cat stance down chop block, which is basically the same structurally but has a different feel. I hope that individual stuck with BSL. He’s got a solid physique and a decent horse stance. He just needs to find more life in the BSL movements. Too stiff.
I think the guy mentioned at first should spend more time practicing and less time trying to look like a monk that stole Fong Sai Yuk’s hair.
Why does kung fu attract all the nuts?
the queue looks goofy…on anyone really. 
as for all the nuts, I thought those were the right wingers with guns?
hahahaha I like the music that goes with it. so is this a trailer for a movie where he takes revenge on the Boss who does his sifu in?
Could one of the brave lads on the forum please challenge him to a death match due to his hair?
We must find him first
Come on now, he’s a wayward BSL cousin. Someone must know who he is. With a little coaching and a lot of heart, he could be an asset to the family.
And given my hair dramatics, I’d be the last one to bust anyone about hair styles…:o
Yeah the hair could always double as an additional weapon like Ku Feng in the Shaw Brothers classic Avenging Eagle. Or its always cool to wrap it around your neck just before opening up a can of whoop arse. 
Peace.

Ha ha! Gene you met my 6 year old (at the time) son Arjuna

Not my older son Ryan who was 17 at the time that vid was shot.
Does it really look like wu shu? D a m n!!
We are traditional Northern Shaolim (sic) in the flavor of the Hui style.
I think we had the adding flair discussion down in Texas at Tai Chi Legacy a few years ago?
Peace
