Here is how to do the Rook Hold Bridge goal from user Madfigs:

So I just saw this quest for the first time today, located next to the bridge into Black Rook Hold. It's extremely confusing since they don't really explain what's going on very well (possibly on purpose). There are two types of powerups that recharge your air dash ability - a purple orb, and a purple crystal that also pops you up into the air. If you hit a yellow wall or start to fall, it will teleport you back to the start.

Here is the sequence that I used to finish:

-Dash into the purple crystal, it will launch you up into the air
-Dash into the purple orb
-Fall for a few seconds, then dash through the first arch under the bridge. You must hit the purple orb located inside
-Dash all the way through the arch into the purple crystal on the other side, it will launch you into the air
-Dash into the purple orb right next to the top of the bridge
-Dash again in the same direction, you will fall down and hit a blue platform. If you fail again from here it will reset you back to this point instead of the beginning
-Dash through the arch you're next to under the bridge, into the purple orb
-Dash again into the purple crystal, it will launch you up into the air
-You have to fall down and dash into the gap between the yellow walls, there is another purple orb there you need to hit
-Dash into the middle arch under the bridge, into the goal.

Good luck!

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
