I think that's what it was. This was the first wushu championship, in 1990, in Kharkov (now Ukraine) organized by Li Jianwen. Li Jianwen had a school in Kharkov (now Ukraine). I believe this was one of his students in a demonstration promoting him and his school, however presented. But, I don't know for sure.
From his school in Ukraine:
