Noter:

Those doing the Pass Thru should point at each other before moving. The Outside dancer who is not doing the Pass Thru should not move until one of the original Very Centers has appeared by his/her side. Should you prematurely turn in anticipation of the Hinge you will likely throw yourself (as well as other dancers) out of position. EN: 40

Dem der laver Pass Thru bør pege på hinanden før de går. Den Outside danser som ikke skal lave Pass Thru må ikke røre sig før den oprindelige Very Center danser står ved siden af. DK: 40
Be careful and dance each part of Chain Reaction very precisely since the Hinge could be from a Mini-Wave or from a Couple; the Outsides Trade could be from a Mini-Wave or a Couple; the Star could be normal or facing; and the final Cast Off 3/4 could be an Arm Turn or a 'Push' Cast. Don't rush the execution of this call since teamwork is required for successful completion. EN: 50

Vær omhyggelig og dans hver part af Chain Reaction præcist eftersom Hinge kan være fra en Mini-Wave eller fra Couple; Outsides Trade kan være fra en Mini-Wave eller Couple; Star kan være normal eller facing; og den afsluttende Cast Off 3/4 kan være Arm Turn eller 'Push' Cast. Forhast dig ikke og tænk på at successen af dette kald er afhængig af godt Team work. DK: 50

From symmetric starting formations, Chain Reaction (Star 1/4 or Star 3/4) always ends in Parallel Lines. It never ends in a Parallelogram. Chain Reaction, Star 1/2 sometimes ends in a Parallelogram. EN: 90
