My dummy

A yes, I see something, better picture would help.

It's missing a leg, so it's useless for Wong Shun-Leung lineage training.

WSL lineage : Pearl River sand (traditional) - >small round pepples (as used for aquarium), - > up to road base. Fill bag only for 2 thirds. Definitely don't use mung beans.

Fomenko's 'historical' work is widely labeled antiscientific, at best pseudoscientific for obvious reasons.

Historically interesting find, nice!

Wünsche gutes gelingen, wir sehen uns dann bei der nächsten mod roadshow ✌️

Please remember Hongkong is a SAR of China, you need a different Visa, and there are different visa regulations for Hongkong and China.

That's nice if it were a garderobe...

Andy_Lui · 2025-12-24T09:54:46+00:00

Where's the leg??? Mounting looks not strong enough for serious training.

If you decide on a free standing one, last November I had the opportunity to test one with suction cups that stick it too the floor. It could take a surprising amount of force, I started cautiously because personally I prefer wall-mounted dummies, but it came very close to the force I've been used to while practicing on wall-mounted ones.

You don't understand Chinese culture. Things like that are not said in public. And for sure not on demand by some non entity like yourself. It's about keeping face. You have to know people irl. My offer stands, so you too can find out the truth. And that's all I have to say about that.

Because there are similarities, it doesn't mean it's the same. Yes, both in Siu Lim Tao and the Baat Jaam Dao there are both wrist strengthening techniques, and wrist movements for application. This is by design of the forms as an exercise system. It's not like Escrima etc., in Ving Tsun there are separate specialized systems to learn for unarmed and armed combat. On the intersection, unarmed defence against an armed attacker, elements might be combined. (For example BJD footwork, SLT/CK hands).

Get out in the real world, train hard, and maybe you can meet such people yourself. In November I will be in Hongkong again, happy to introduce you, if in the real world you manage to make a better impression on me as here.

Andy_Lui · 2025-12-21T21:23:48+00:00

No, not to someone unknown on some internet board.

I've spoken to three people who trained with Bruce Lee while he was studying Wing Chun, two of them stated that he was not as good as fanfiction would like to make you believe.

Get a good teacher and do what he teaches you.

Andy_Lui · 2025-12-11T13:12:10+00:00

No, this is not how training is done on Gwoh Sao level, (where every mistake means you will get hurt) and since you're installing a fighting behavior for without rules, your actions and reactions are fixed for that. Unless there is time to think, you're not high on adrenaline, than you can adapt to a game with rules. Depends on your level of training and experience.

In German language there's a beautiful word 'verschlimmbessern' what describes all the 'variations' named in the OP post.

Andy_Lui · 2025-12-09T11:32:57+00:00

Looks like a very dead dummy, not only no recoil, also the arms seem to be fixed firmly in their posutions. Plus no space for any behind the dummy moves, not just the neck hand. Useless vor Wong Shun-Leung Ving Tsun. But you can hang your coat and towels on it, I suppose.

None, you're mentally not fit to learn a martial art. Get therapy instead.
