Note: Historically, Your Leader has also been called from Twin Diamonds, in which case the Outsides omit the 1/4 Right. This usage is typically frowned upon today and it is our opinion that the caller should say something like 'Outsides go As You Are' or 'Centers Start' so that the outsides do not start with a 1/4 Right. EN: 40

Dancing hint: Those doing the Arm Turn 3/4 may need to pause before doing the Tandem Extend as the Outsides sometimes take longer to do their part. EN: 50

any Tagging call Your Leader [C3A]:
Do the any Tagging call to the 1/2 Tag position; Follow Your Leader. EN: 216

See also Tagging Calls.

Pass & Roll Your Leader [C3AV]:
From Eight Chain Thru. Pass Thru; Centers Turn Thru as Ends Right-face U-Turn Back; Pass Thru; Centers Right Arm Turn 3/4 as Ends 1/4 Right and Tandem Cross Fold; all Tandem Extend. Ends in R-H Columns. This is the same as Pass & Roll Your Neighbor but replace Follow Your Neighbor with Follow Your Leader. EN: 217

Scoot Your Leader [C3A]:
From a 1/4 Tag. Scoot Back; outsides 1/4 to the handhold and Tandem Cross Fold as Centers Arm Turn 3/4; all Tandem Extend. EN: 218

Switch Your Leader [NOL] (Lee Kopman 1975):
From Parallel Waves. Switch To A Diamond; (Outsides go As You Are) Your Leader. EN: 220

Trail Your Leader [NOL]:
From Columns. Trail To A Diamond; (Outsides go As You Are) Your Leader. EN: 221

Switch Your Leader and Trail Your Leader are considered anomalies since they don't exactly follow the definition of any Tagging call Your Leader. In our opinion, callers should refrain from using these calls. EN: 60
