Notes:

Variation: Big Block anything To A (Normal) Column | Line | Wave: Start the call working Big Block but end in a normal setup (e.g., Parallel Waves).

Stagger Concept [C2]: From an appropriate 16-Matrix formation, typically Interlocked Blocks. Execute the given call working within Distorted Columns. At the completion of the given call, each dancer must end on one of the footprints of the original formation. Shape-changing calls are allowed with the restriction that it must be possible for each dancer to unambiguously adjust to end on one of the footprints of the original formation. As with Interlocked Blocks, the diagonal acts as the controlling feature for re-establishing the footprints of the resulting formation.
