While I studied various forms with Ernest Rothrock he was the Senior student of Sifu Rothrock at the Pittsburgh school. Later after Sifu relocated to Pittsburgh he became the school owner.
Back in 1983 when Roy Blackwell returned for vacation from Texas where he family had relocated, I had Sifu teach him the Pai Lum form Supple Dragon. And while I watched it I worked very hard at remembering. Later I practiced and practiced what I remembered.
Then at my last visit to the Wilkes Barre school Dave, in December 1984 filmed many of my forms so I could remember them.
Those forms were long and I began to tire so Dave volunteered to walk through 2 of them giving me a break.

Additionally I later found this video of Dave performing a staff-staff form with Ernie.
