The Fan CONCEPT is used on calls which begin with an Arm Turn 1/2 (Swing) followed by a Centers Cast Off 3/4. Omit the initial Arm Turn 1/2 and do the given call.

Typical calls used with the Fan CONCEPT include:

Alter & Circulate Spin Chain & Exchange The Gears Alter The Wave Spin Chain The Gears Relay The Deucey Spin Chain The Line Relay The Shadow Spin Chain Thru Relay The Top

Notes:

• The Fan CONCEPT was derived by generalizing the difference between 'Spin The Top' and 'Fan The Top'.
• For calls whose name begins with the word 'Spin' the word 'Spin' is replaced with the word 'Fan' (e.g., Spin Chain the Gears becomes Fan Chain the Gears). For all other calls the word 'Fan' is inserted before the name of the call (e.g., Alter the Wave becomes Fan Alter the Wave).
• The calls listed above can also be done from a Facing Setup (Eight Chain Thru or Facing Lines). If so, Step To A Wave and then do the call.
• The caller could alternatively say Finish any call instead of Fan any call.

Fan Alter The Wave:         before Fan Alter The Wave   after Centers Arm Turn 3/4 as Ends U-Turn Back   after Counter Rotate 1/2   after Flip The Diamond (done)

Fan Chain Thru:         before Fan Chain Thru   after Centers Cast Off 3/4   after Very Centers Trade   after Centers Cast Off 3/4 (done) (Sometimes it seems that the Ends have the hardest part!)
