Wow, I'm watching this long staff form being performed and remember that I used to perform just like that. My old master, Sifu Ken Edwards, and all his high ranking students used to admire my performances. If only financial issues hadn't gotten in the way of my practice...
Nah I would expect that Ying Jow Pai is one of those black sash = soil and unpure skill and white = pure and perfection so the kip up guy is probable the green sashes senior. Or just a very skilled white sash LoL.
yes goldenlotusmaster, you are right, white sash is the highest. You begin with black, then yellow then green and finally white. Some of the colors get a stripe here and there too. :-)
That makes good sense. I have always wanted to learn the Ying Jow Pai Shan Zi Qi Xie 扇子器械. I saw it performed in NYC back in the 90's at a New Years 農曆新年 celebration where Leung Shum Sifu demonstrated the taolu 套路. I think the whole thing came out on tape as a "Kung-fu Masters" video but I'm not sure may he'll remember. But props to your style.
Most Excellent indeed, does dai hing cecil do any forms from back in the day?

It may be hard to see, but the white sash is also distinguishable from the other belts in that it's the only one that has tassels.

I guess the ability to do the kip-up and flips are part of the basic requirement in Eagle Claw?

Yes. Full splits, front and back handsprings, butterfly kicks, cartwheels, etc. are in many of the forms.
