From a Diamond.
Centers do your part Diamond Circulate as Points slide together & Trade
(Cross Run) to end in the furthest Center position.
A normal Diamond ends in a Two-Faced Line; a Facing Diamond ends in a Wave.
Notes:
-
Sound effect: Those doing the slide together and trade
(the original points)
make a noise such as "hi-yah!" (as in a karate chop).
-
The Trade could be an Arm Turn 1/2, or a Partner Trade.
Do not always assume an Arm Turn 1/2.
