I don't know or never heard of these guys but this is the way I would have loved to learn and play Northern longfist:

We should add a wushu section to this forum.

No, this is our Long Fist association in Taiwan.

Check the forum site,

On the first video it is written, "Traditional Northern shaolin longfist in Taiwan".

It also says the head of the association in the clip is Jian Chang Gen.

In one sense it is from the mainland if Han Qing Tang was born and learned on the mainland which I believe he did.

It's a good indication of what was practiced on the mainland prior to 1949 or so.
