Whipping techniques are devised to incapacitate the opponents' weapons and entangle their limbs. Mastering the techniques is a long, arduous process. According to seasoned martial arts actor Cheung Kwok Wah, every prospective apprentice of the whip must weave their own whip before taking lessons from a master. The photo shows the long whip personally hand-woven by Cheung Kwok Wah.
This prop staff is designed to be shorter and lighter than the real weapon for ease of use and the safety of the actors. The photo shows long pole broadsword (top) and staff (bottom).
