Could you post this in a Facebook format that can be viewed without an account, or provide a YouTube link? Some of us don't do Facebook (or ever will)...

Thanks.

Very cool. Thanks for posting.

Best,

Unfortunately it"s a FB video on another acct so I can't do that.

I don't know who it is
Even though at times he uses a little too much obvious strength to get effect there is no silly foot stomping
It reminds me of film yui Kwong sent me from HK of him pushing with his students on gravel
Each push they would go back 20 feet with dust clouds coming from their feet

Here you are Facebook-haters. I uploaded it on Youtube. But I really, really don't like uploading other people's vids, so I am going to take it away in a few days.

I deeply respect you guys who do not have a Facebook account.

Ah, tack så mycket, Cynical Nut Case!

And yes, very interesting! Among other things, really nice footwork by the guy in the shirt: stepping in, back and around without losing the connection or root, using the 'change sides on the spot'-step quickly and fluently (around 1:45 to 2:00). Get the impression the shirtless guy is fairly good himself and is not being a stooge or giving face, he's just not on the same level as the other guy.
My hunch would be Malaysia or Taiwan, not mainland China.

If you go to the woman who posted its site she is from gaosiung in Taiwan
I also noted one of her friends is Cheng fu from the lu tong Bao lineage in Penang
One of our Taiwan experts might be of help

I see Wu style mechanics in play/utility!

[wayne hansen]

Appears to be yang style to me

I'd have said Yang too. He reminds me a bit of Ip Tai Tak and the like

[Bao]

Yang is correct.
Cheng Manqing ---> Yap Siu Ting (Yue Shu Ting) ---> Lu Tongbao --->
Lineage prevalent also in HK and in Malaysia by Yellow Bamboo sect.

Yes, that definitely fits!

Lineage prevalent also in HK and in Malaysia by Yellow Bamboo sect.

Yellow Bamboo? Aren't those the ling kong jin freaks, or are there some more down-to-earth practitioners under that label?
Most people in the YST and Lu Tongbao lineage, above all the older people, could hardly be more different to that approach - very martial, practical and hands-on!!

Steve, do you know whether Nigel Sutton has seen this video? (I read that you are associated with him nowadays). He probably has already, but if not I think he'd be very interested.

The very same people who think that attackers will automatically bounce off them if they are attacked. I found info on Lu Tongbao and a tai chi lineage chart on a Yellow Bamboo page.

Please do not make any connection with Thai Keik and yellow bamboo
One person I know of claims lineage through both and his connections to several lineages are dubious at best
My teacher thought the guy in the clip might be an old teacher of his Ken Lai Kohr
