Have no idea about his name, but what he performs should be Gong Runtian lineage from Yang Banhou.

Maybe you disagree with some of it as his explanation is from a purely "Chen style" perspective.

He claims to be Yang but does some nice Wu elsewhere

@Wayne, pretty sure the guy in the video is Mattia Baldi. Not sure where he said he was Yang?

I have spoken to him via PM and he was pretty clear that he has consistently studied Wu with various teachers in Beijing (in addition to Yiquan, etc) before settling down on the variant passed down by Wu Tunan (including their fast form).

FWIW I really like his shenfa, looks like he has acquired some real taiji skill!

I might have got it wrong but I thought he said he trained Yang for the past 15 years
I watched quite a few of his vids and will watch more
Some of the short clips he shows sure seem quite yang style
I like more what he says than how he shows form and application

I have to say, I respect the staying power of anybody who can listen to that guy talk and talk without falling asleep.
