@masteringwushu Also notice the staff. Usually feng mo gun is performed with toothpick size staff. In this practice session you can see the staff is thick and heavy like southern staff.
Sorry bowser you are mistaken. I've posted some links in the info field of this video to help you (youtube would not allow me to post them here for some reason). The difference between northern and southern staff is common knowledge. I assure you, Sean is practicing a northern staff form with a much heavier southern staff.
@selahsagacious Im not mistaken lol. I study Northern Longfist, we use Waxwood staves. Not thin toothpick staves. I know Contemporary Wushu uses thinner waxwood staves for speed, but Tapered toothpick staves are signature of the Karate, TKD, Kenpo genre. SOrry to say, you are wrong. You are disputing the wrong point. Difference between southern and northern staves are ,North typically uses waxwood, southern uses harder woods. Simply based on the type of materials available in the geography.
Really? Please search youtube for 'kung fu southern staff' and tell me if you can find one person using something other than chinese white oak (waxwood). Good luck! lol
When I said toothpick size staff I was referring to the thickness and weight of the staff (see any online reference to this fact). I assumed that people understood it was waxwood since that is what chinese martial artist practice with 99% of the time (northern and southern).
@selahsagacious So you made a incorrect assumption , you kept referring to tapered staff/toothpick staff. CM<A doesnt use though lol. SO you clearly have no idea what you are talking about lol. Sounds like you didnt read my post either. I said southern uses a Native type of Hardwood (Not waxwood). So I am not wasting anymore time with you on this. Since you cant even read my full reply. Bye bye
@bowser8375 you should read more carefully. You will see thousands of videos on youtube of folks practicing with thin 'toothpick' waxwood staffs. Many toothpicks are tapered on one end like waxwood staff lol! You have failed to post one vid of any southern staff performance using anything other than thicker heavier waxwood. Also I suggest you do a little more research. I have provided 2 websites describing exactly what I was talking about in original comment. (good place for you to start)
@selahsagacious Clearly you are the type of person that MUST have the last word. SO reply to this and get it in :P I practice Kung Fu and have been for years. You are a sit behind the keyboard know it all. SO kindly stfu and leave kung fu to the people that know it !!!!
@bowser8375@bowser8375 Since I am an administrator of this site, yes I will enjoy the last word especially when correcting false information. Again you have failed to provide any verification of your claims. The facts that I have stated - easy to verify, if I am wrong please provide evidence. I noticed that you have failed to post even one video of the results of all your extensive kung fu training! Typical lol. Unfortunately web is full of people like you who have lots of gum but no teeth!
@selahsagacious Administrator of what ? Your youtube channel LOL. I have my years of training to keep me informed. I have also read many , many books on various martial arts over the last 20 years. Your information is the false stuff, so I am glad you feel confident in your wrong info. You probably have only been training for less than a year. Best of luck on your channel, administrator ROFL.
@bowser8375 Once again you have failed the easy task of providing evidence for your silly claims. Yes I am an administrator of this channel. When you grow the huevos to post a video of yourself, then we'll see if your for real. Until then, we'll just have to take your word for it lol! But so far you have revealed surprising ignorance of common CMA knowledge. suggest you find new teacher.
@selahsagacious Once again you can kiss my ass. You have no videos of yourself either LOL. I dont need to prove myself to someone who thinks CMA artists usea double tapered Kenpo toothpick ROFL. You probably do COntemporary Wushu and not even traditional CMA. Got a great teacher by the way, so no need to start taking it to that level. SInce its pointless. Go back to Taekwondo or whatever it was you were studying.
@bowser8375 persistent little troll aren't you! FYI- all waxwood staffs are tapered-they're trees silly! Ever notice how trees are fat on one end and skinny on the other (tapered)? Who ever said 'double tapered staff'? You assumed that was what I meant when I said 'toothpick'. Probably because you are new convert from TKD so thats what you are used to. You don't see vid of me, but you also don't see me trolling around making stupid comments on other peoples pages like you haha
@bowser8375 you don't need to prove yourself? Really? Clearly you feel like you do or you wouldn't be trolling my channel haha! Son- posting ignorant comments on other channels is NOT the way to prove yourself! Try find a good teacher and stop playing on youtube.
@selahsagacious I have reread your original post and realized that you never said ‘tapered’. I injected that myself because of my TKD training and we use staves that are tapered on both ends. Since I just began kung fu I’m not used to waxwood. Sorry about the rudeness of my post. I have spoken to my teacher about this and he says you are correct. I will try to show more respect from now on and spend more time training and less time commenting on youtube about things I am unfamiliar with.
@selahsagacious I looked over the links you posted and- sure enough you are correct. I took ur advice and searched youtube for ‘southern kung fu staff’ and once again you are correct. All the southern staff players are using thick waxwood. My teacher said he will break my fingers if he sees me making any of these comments on youtube! One day I will be confident enough to post my own vids :-)
@bowser8275 thanks bowser. its very tempting for people to talk big anonymously online. If you ever feel you’re ready to show the world ur skills, I’m sure that you would want to have some control over what people post on ur channel. Maybe one day you will have administrators of your own ;-)
@bowser8375 I have provided you with easy method of proving me wrong, instead you just keep restating your false premise. Please provide some proof of your premise if you choose to respond. Otherwise, have a nice life.
Also please watch the Shi Yanming video (you actually have it on your favorites) doing the exact form (he's the one who taught Sean the form). You can see he is using thinner staff. Because the form involves more swing movements (typical northern), they use thinner longer waxwood. Because southern styles focus more on hitting with both sides, the staff is shorter and thicker waxwood. This fact is easy to verify using online resources including youtube
Many Northern kung fu styles have a form called Fengmo gun, its a common name. This one is from the northern Shaolin Temple. It is a traditional form, but the performer runs a little further with some of the moves so it looks a bit like wushu. It is a traditional form. Good performance.
those sounds are real, you can feel the power when you see it in person, you miss so much viewing this on video, thanks for making and posting !

This defo not Hung fut as it looks like an extremely northern Wushu set. It is more likely Piqua or other N. Shaolin systems.

Not pigua either. Looks more like the modern shaolin wushu form, though I forget exactly what it looks like.

@Bajifan: yes, this is very much like the staff form that Shi Yanming used to perform, only that this one is cleaner.

@selahsagacious Um actually that is a normal sized Shaolin Staff , for staff training. TKD and Kempo and those styles use the toothpick.
