Does "Small Three-Sectioned Staff" mean the staff is small or the form is small?

The current (Oct. 2003) issue of Inside Kung Fu features an article on Jow Ga Kung Fu.

I read a couple of articles a few years ago about a style of Gung-fu called "Jow Ga". I thought it was really interesting and would like to do some research on it.
Can anyone give me a hand???
Thanks so much!

You guys have Fu-Pow Kuen!!! Amazing.

I have never seen that outside of my Lee Koon Hung Choy Lay Fut lineage.

Mabye yours is a little different. . . .

In ours we have a double Chop Choy, it is a Chuen followed by a straight chop from the hips with palm facing inwards, then brought back for another chuen, then the normal diving, cyclic Chop.

Mabye we can talk.

PS - Jow is a Southern System. I suggest moving it to the Southern section.

Thanks everyone.
Though I'm extremely content in the style/system that I'm in, I enjoy learning About many many others. It's all so interesting, with so much to learn.
Jow Ga is so very interesting!
