*The last example (From a Wave), is for informational purposes only. Cross Fire is rarely called from a Wave, even at C4. In this case, dancers end on the same spot, and hence share the spot by stepping to a right-hand Mini-Wave. Dancers are offset because the shared ending spots are not on an axis of the original formation. EN: 40

Noter:
  • Only the original Ends can Roll. EN: 50
  • According to the CALLERLAB definitions, when Cross Fire is done from Out-Facing Lines, the ending formation is a 1/4 Tag formation. We disagree. EN: 60

Dette er startformation
for hver af de følgende:
 
 
Cross Fire
according to CALLERLAB EN: 70
 
Cross Fire
according to our definition EN: 80
