hi everyone, thank you for taking time answering my question. i had time a few weeks ago to check out brian's school myself, and as "red rum" said, they do use the chain punches as their "finishing move". i thought the school was ineffective. brian also claims himself as an "extraordinary student" of cheung.

Yes a finishing move where the opponent or prearranged attacker just stands there and does'nt fight back?
It's next to impossible to get a chain punch to land when some one is resisting. Let alone in a real fight.
IMO, the chain punch is only good for conditioning. But, that should not even be focused on too much as I think it's better to focus on developing a powerful, relaxed punch using proper structure and not a flury of low quality punches.
I believe the chain punch should be taught as a concept and not a way to finish your opponent.
I also find that those who focus on the chain punch tend to think it is all they need to win a fight. Not saying it could never work. Just not a practical way to learn and not a proper understanding of wc. IMO.

I hate to be disrespectful. That is not my intent. But a long rant against proving Wing Chun's claims via video while attempting to do so via text? Please, just one clip featuring solid Wing Chun technique against a live (and actual) opponent would at least begin to settle the matter.
