Question wushu kung fu. anyone do it?

hi,
I study wing chun kung fu, praying mantis kung fu and judo at the mo, and was wondering whether wushu is hard to learn.
how long does it take to get to grips with the spinning in mid air stuff? it looks really hard.

anyone know?
cheers

if you want something to do demo's then wushu maybe the way to go however you're doing praying mantis which is way cooler for showing off
you want cool do Drunken Boxing

Absolutely, but seeing as that is what everyone does on any Martial Arts related thread on Scoobynet (ie. go on about how 'your' art is better) then how about you lighten up and note that little winky sign that looks like this

That denotes that something is in jest

Did I hear someone say all martial artists take themselves too seriously and are prone to being ultra defensive
