Video of Edmund Hong (sic?) demonstrating a 4th form combining footwork from the knife form (looks like retreating gan sau's) and some dummy moves too. Meant for competition according to the above youtube page, I assume that means for fighting? (EDIT: It's for competition wu shu pattern stuff...so not so cool...) Looks pretty awesome with some fairly swish kicking if you ask me!

Edit: oh yeah, it's designed by sigung ip ching too

ye its for competition purposes, the chinese kung fu association or something of the sort asked styles to produce one form that sums up their respective systems. So it combines stuff from all three forms, and dummy and knife stuff.

that way people can do form competitions, and then synchronised team pattersn, and hopefully one day to a funky pop tune while you do martial arts. RAD OR WHAT. Lets be like tkd gayness

We should develop one from cool-jutsu and enter it and pretend it's been an ancient art practised in secret for 200,000 years.
