Yes there are over 900 forms all together. In fact there is so much information, I can see why it would take a lifetime to master them all.
Meteor fist is another fighting system in kung fu like drunken boxing, or eagle claw. It's particular style reflects the personality of the name. Fists like meteors.
This art is quite colorful.
