I read an article in W/Q magazine that said that there were Shaolin compulsory routines for forms competition as they have done with the International Wushu Competition Routines (nanquan, 42 step and so on). Does anyone know how I can find out more about these forms? Books, VCD's, Website?

I came across what may have been a vcd for it browsing one day, I'll see if I can find it.

It was listed as just "Shaolin Quan", but I don't think that's what you're looking for... The generic title made me think it was possibly the new competition form.

Jian-Ye Jiang has a training video called Loham Boxing. It is a very long form. and and seems to have borrowed fron the other Lohan forms. I have a Vcd entitled Manditory boxing routines and it is the same form. Someone told me that that may be it. What makes me question is that Jian-Ye video is 6 years old and I was under the assumption that these forms were new. There is supposed to be fist, staff, spear, straight adn broad swords. Thanks

I've seen De Shan's students perform the routines at Taiji Legacy, and he teaches seminars on them, but I've never seen a video source.
