枪 Qiang: spear
"The spear is like the dragon that floats free in the sky"
In the repertoire of Shaolin spear is considered the "king of weapons".
Its peculiarity consists in '"fast-forward in a straight line like a dragon."
The techniques dart forward as the head of a snake, while the movement follows a straight line, thus shortening the distance and shortening the time for action; is directed in up and down quickly and without schemes defined. The launches are not using just the tip: the queue can hit or push, you can do with the bar clamps and protect the body.
The shots are combined with a forward rotational movement of the wrist that increases the effectiveness for the same purpose you can rotate the entire spear at the end of each push, the body is placed briefly under tension, thus passing the energy weapon fixed.
Thanks to its great extent this weapon is ideal for long distances. The use of long weapons requires the agility characteristic of Shaolin kung-fu, and given that the only way to win is to use the tip of the spear, you must keep your distance from the opponent.
Unlike the sword, the spear is long over, the greater the advantage of its wielder.
