Various Hung Kyun 洪拳 lineages taught various weapon sparring sets, many of which have been lost. The old image above, from the Lam Sai Wing Memorial Book  (published in 1951), features Grandmaster Chiu Kao (趙教 Jiu Gaau) and his eldest son, Grandmaster Chiu Wai (趙偉 Jiu Wai), performing Long Bench Versus Big Broadsword (Cheung Dan Deui Daai Dou 長櫈對大刀).

To the best of our knowledge, this set is not taught in the Chiu family lineage, nor in any other known lineage today (please correct us if we are wrong). However, we have dug up a video from a performance (early 2006) in the Canton/Fat Saan area (廣州/佛山), featuring two fine young gentlemen performing the set, with fairly heavy weapons – no modern wushu toys!

We’ve just pulled out all our old tapes from our archive and will start uploading lots of rare material.

Enjoy!
