Grnadmaster Wong uses Than Sau to defend against Molly's Chiek Sau

An effective side attack is Chiek Sau, or Cutting Hand, which may be applied from out-gate or in-gate. Good response are Than Sau, or Mirror Handm and Kham Sau, or Covering Hand. Please note that Than Sau here is not a direct block, which would result in using force against force, but a deflecting move using waist rotation and minimum force against maximun strength. Some ad-hoc moves like turning the head or bending back may be necessary if the side-attack is too close or fast.
