*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

Hinweise:
  • 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

Das ist die Ausgangsformation
für die folgenden Beispiele:
 
 
Cross Fire
according to CALLERLAB EN: 70
 
Cross Fire
according to our definition EN: 80

For more information, see The Crossfire Controversy EN: 90

Straight Fire [C4]:
From Parallel Two-Faced Lines, Facing Twin Diamonds, or other applicable formations. Centers Trade & Step Forward as Out-Facing Ends Cross Fold as In-Facing Ends Veer Inward. Parallel Two-Faced Lines end in Columns. EN: 681
