Looking closely at the techniques within, I agree. It may be difficult to see if you aren't familiar with one or the other, but they are the same thing.
They start with switching cross hands to the front, Fuzi Gongshou (salute) then Baihu Xilian (white tiger washes face) , then Nili Bacong ("pulling scallions from the mud", aka. shushen). Toward the middle they have a 360 turn and 'brush' the thighs, Yema Fenzong ("wild horse parts mane"). There are other similarities throughout, following the same pattern.
Still, it is just road 1 of 8. I haven't seen anyone do the others. Wonder who might still have all 8 roads.
