any comment please!

Answer 1

Double leg takedown would take care of him real easy...

Answer 2

He's good, he has good balance, and good form. And on top of that he looks like he would fair pretty well if he had to defend himself.

Answer 3

he was okay in my opinion

Answer 4

I've never been a fan of performance Wushu. I see it more of a gymnastics and athletic performance more then a demonstration of fighting skill.

However, this guy looks like he knows his stuff. I especially like how well he can keep his balance when he is doing all those twirls above his head.

Answer 5

he has no opposition.  He acts and does not have to react.  This you cannot tell much about his art that is meant to involve an opposition.

i liked his form with the pelvis thrust

Answer 6

I will not judge his kata as I am not familiar with it or any of wushu katas. However, I am not impressed with his skills. It looks to me like a lot of unnecessary movement. I didn't see great form or any power. I didn't see him look before moving. I've have been taught that you should look before you leap. If you don't you may walk into something or trip over something.  It looks as if the routine was memorized but the kata wasn't learned. There is a difference.

It is one thing to move your weapon it is another thing to clearly define your strikes with a weapon. Are you playing to a crowd or are you demonstration how a weapon would be used in traditional training?

Answer 7

Good enough for what?
