that is interesting. My Sifu has mentioned this set as well. This seems to have very similar hand techniques to Fukien Wing Chun Bak Hohk's SamJien Kuen, but performed with one side rather than both hands simultaneously, and with larger stances. Might point to similar roots.
I have always maintained the idea that there is common ancestory in Hakka Kuen, Fukien Bak Hok, and Hung Kuen.

If you did not said this was a branch of Hung Kuen I would say it was some Fukien White Crane... Cool stuff

saam jin Hung Kyun is very famous in Fatsaan, Naamhoi, Gwongjau... another "short bridge, narrow horse" old Hung Kyun, confirming my theory about old HK and its connections to Fukgin White Crane. more research needed!
