Used mainly against an opponent standing side on or semi side on stance , stepping in and throwing a straight punch at your face.
Use your centreline punch to intercept and deflect his incoming straight punch , using your right punch to the outside of his right wrist , or in the case of him using a left handed strike use your left punch on the outside of left wrist.
After your punch has fully extended and deflected his punch , hook your fingers and thumb over his forearm and start to contract the angle in your arm and sink the elbow at the same time .
This will break his structure and drag him down and in , this is what we call a "latch".
At the same time you are doing your latch , you will pivot and Hook Kick him in the groin with your instep or shin. ( hook kick is the same as Wing Chun side kick it is just used at shorter range using the shin as the striking surface instead of the heel).
The pivot , latch and kick are all done simultaneously to drag the opponent in and enhance the power of the kick.
Use the same side leg as the hand you are latching with.
Don't forget to bring your spare hand up into Wu Sau to guard your face , if a hand is not striking it is guarding with the Wu Sau.
After the kick , close in and follow up with "continuous punch"
Other targets you can kick depending on the range are the front of his lead thigh and also the midsection.
