Training tool

This???? --


Not sure why this is posted on the Wing Chun forum. I don't see how this training tool would contribute to Wing Chun, at least as I train it.

The way they show it being used with a boxier's jabbing motion might work in the PCE Escrima I teach, which uses a jab. But we already accomplish much the same effect using a short, 24 in. baston which is snapped elastically using the wrist. And, the alignment of the baston with the wrist is superior for our purposes, so my overall reaction is ....meh.
 
Same concept as Kung Fu Rings and Long Staff (long pole) training exercises. I think I'm with geezer on this one. From first looks I would think that it would only help certain types of punches. I'm from a circular system so something like this won't provide the same benefit. I'm not saying that the product won't work, but I definitely think it will work better for some systems than others. My thoughts is that while using this tool that the energy that one generates will no longer exit the fist but the heavy end of the tool and this is what appears to be happening to the girl at the 3:11 mark. The only real way to know is try it out with a jab that twists.
 
Well if you won't buy that "Evnik" training tool based on what that cute and quite talented little girl can do "Tu-tu-tu-tu-tu-toot!" ....then perhaps I can sell you a rotten aspen tree trunk? It's the ultimate. Just watch this:

ha ha ha.. no thanks. I already punch trees, brick walls, metal, leather punching mits, leather gloves, foam head gear, and people... oh and most recently plastic drinking straws lol.
 
Thank you! Came across this interesting training tool online earlier that's why was wonder if this would benefit the wing chun way of delivering a punch
Just figure it's better to have new to commend and discuss then having similar post of trying to find out the significant of WSLVT , YM style , leung ting style, or the diff between Different lineage, etc etc etc etc
(Sorry I got carried away)
