Ok, did I miss this guy posting a vid of him doing something that nobody in centuries of martial arts development has missed?
Did he never hear of the elusive lead? Initial movement? These are terms I learned in the seventies when learning Kenpo, and in JKD, and from Jack Dempsey.(books-I ain't that old)This guy thinks he reinvented the wheel. Evidently, he doesn't get out much.
Let it go.
You will not convince him, just as I couldn't convince the guy I'd met at the Rennaisance Faire that the style of combat he developed after the Mallard Duck wouldn't be street effective.
Just let it go.
I will admit, a lot of this art smacks of marketing, but that isn't always a bad thing. It might be street useful, it might be fun.

That being said, at least he isn't melting gun barrels with spectral radiation from his palms. (See: Grand Celestial Do)
