It is the same form no doubt. But if yours has a 2 man counterpart it must be quite different from my 2 man version.
I have several cases of documentable proof that this form is called Shaolin ba bu lien huan chuen.
Why your school uses that name I can not say. Cases of schools changing names of forms are not rare.
1. religoius reasons.
2. to fit in with other names of another teachers curriculum.
3. owing to dialect difference name was passed and new characters cause the name to change
4. forgot and made it up.
5. didn't get the name and made it up.
cannon 1 is an odd name.
I would think the chinese name may have been pao chuei yi lu.
This signifies that you must have another similar form.
is that right?
My style is Mantis, but I learn a few other things. Another similar form to this is
Shoulin Luohan 18 Hands.
