After an error, you really don't want to redirect, just re-render. That's how you keep all the request variables alive. If you need to render a different form from a different path, just pass in that path to your controller. Remember, in the error side of the if/else, there is an implicit render template: [:new or :edit]. So you can also write render template: 'path/to/custom/view' there. The rest of the variables will already be there.
