Chung-kun

In the split second of an attack, the wing chun master shifts his weight to the opposite leg, launching a "chung-kun" ,mandible-dismantling strike to the jaw with enormous force generated from the "yiu-ma", the spinning thrust of the hips and slight pivoting of the feet to generate extra amount of force.
In Wing Chun, The speed and damage of attack is a result of the "whiplash" effect, compounded by an overlapping movement of snapping the wrist which protrudes the bottom three knuckles at the point of contact.
