A Wing Chun martial artist also can practice with a wooden dummy and eventually use wooden stick-and-knife sets to complement his or her moves.
Indeed, what sets Wing Chun apart from other martial arts, Chong says, is the practitioner's acute use of the tactile sense to intercept and block an opponent's move before it is fully executed.
Thus, a Wing Chun artist will not use two movements to block an attack and then punch his counterpart.

He described it as a somewhat gelatinous, small-finned octopus that he believed to be fairly inactive.

Later, another worker felt that Chun’s placement of this species into an existing group of octopods was incorrect, and instead a new family level group (Vampyroteuthidae) was warranted to include a sole member, V. infernalis.
