Notes:

Variation: EN: 60
Interlocked Counter But Centers Cast Off 1/2
(instead of 3/4). This variation is not well defined. There are two different ways (resulting in different ending formations) that the Centers could do the Cast Off 1/2: EN: 70
  1. Once Removed Cast Off 1/2; or EN: 80
  2. Very Centers 'Back-to-Back Slither' then Cast Off 1/2. EN: 85

We disapprove of the above variation since it is ambiguous, but would opt for the first case if it was encountered while dancing. EN: 90

Counter [C2] (Lee Kopman):
From a 3/4 Tag or other applicable formations. Centers Cast Off 3/4 and Counter Rotate 1/4 as Outsides Cast Back, Touch 1/2, and Step & Fold. A R-H 3/4 Tag ends in Parallel L-H Waves; a L-H 3/4 Tag ends in Parallel L-H Two-Faced Lines. EN: 241
