Hinweise:

    Cast A Shadow wandelt Parallel Two-Faced Lines in Parallel Waves um und umgekehrt. DE: 110
  • Ends meet with original outside hands. EN: 120
    Die Ends treffen sich immer mit den originalen outside hands. update DE: 120
  • The Ends' part is EN: 130
    Der Ends-part ist zu update DE: 130
    1. 1/2 Zoom (Lead End flip away from the Center & Extend as Trailing End 1/2 Circulate to meet with original outside hands); EN: 140
      1/2 Zoom (Lead End flip away from the Center & Extend as Trailing End 1/2 Circulate, um sich mit den originalen outside hands zu treffen); DE: 140
    2. Cast Off 3/4 (think "half, then a quarter more"); EN: 150
      Cast Off 3/4 (denke "halb, dann ein Viertel mehr"); DE: 150
    3. and Spread (allow enough space for two dancers). EN: 160
      and Spread (genug Platz für zwei Tänzer ermöglichen). update DE: 160
  • Out-Facing Centers (the "Shadowers") should make a wide arc for the Cloverleaf so at not to interfere with the Ends. Out-Facing Centers end in the near center position. EN: 170
    Out-Facing Centers (the "Shadowers") sollten einen weiten Bogen für das Cloverleaf machen, so dass sie die Ends nicht behindern. Out-Facing Centers enden in der near center position. DE: 170
  • In-Facing Centers Extend to join inside hands, Arm Turn 1/4 with each other, wait for about two beats to allow the Ends to finish their Cast Off 3/4, and then Extend. Be sure to use only one hand for the Extend & Arm Turn 1/4. We have frequently seen overly-excited dancers step forward, join both hands, whoop and kick, and then forget which way to turn and consequently have no idea where they belong. EN: 180
    In-Facing Centers Extend um die inside hands zu verbinden, Arm turn 1/4 miteinander ausführen, warte für ungefähr zwei Takte, um den Ends zu ermöglichen, ihr Cast Off 3/4 und dann Extend zu beenden. Sei sicher, nur eine Hand für das Extend & Arm Turn 1/4 zu benutzen. Wir haben öfters übernervöse Tänzer gesehen, die vortreten, beide Hände fassen, juhu und trampel, und dann vergessen, in welche Richtung zu drehen ist und folglich keine Idee haben, wo sie hingehören. DE: 180
  • When Cast A Shadow is called from Promenade, the designated Couple (Leaders) should continue Promenading until they are squared off to a wall and then Step Forward as the others bend in behind them to form Parallel Two-Faced Lines; then everyone Cast A Shadow. Executing the call in this manner guarantees that the ending formation (Parallel Waves) is squared off to the walls. EN: 190
    Wenn Cast A Shadow aus einem Promenade gecallt wird, sollte das angewiesene Couple (Leaders) weiterpromenieren, bis es zu einer Wand ausgerichtet ist und dann vortreten, während die anderen hinter ihnen einklappen, um Parallel Two-Faced Lines zu bilden; dann macht jeder Cast A Shadow. Die Ausführung des Calls in dieser Art und Weise garantiert, dass die Endformation (Parallel Waves) winkelig ausgerichtet zu den Wänden ist. update DE: 190
