There are four different versions of Spread (only the first two are used at Plus): EN: 10
  1. From Columns: Centers spread apart as ends move in. EN: 20
  2. From a Line: Ends and adjacent Centers exchange places by sidestepping into each other's position. EN: 30
  3. Designated dancers Spread (e.g., from Columns: Ends Spread, check a Butterfly) EN: 60
  4. The call Wheel & Spread. From a One-Faced Line. Wheel & Deal; Leaders sidestep apart from one another (and backup slightly) as Trailers move in between. EN: 70

Poznámky:
  • Nobody changes their facing direction on a Spread. EN: 100
  • Spread is usually used as a suffix to another call (e.g., Follow Your Neighbor & Spread). EN: 110
  • Because there are different versions of Spread, sometimes there is an ambiguity. For instance, from R-H Columns: Centers Trade & Spread. Do the Centers Trade then all Spread, or do the Centers Trade then Centers only Spread? The caller should use helper words to disambiguate. EN: 120
  • From Back-to-Back Lines, Wheel & Deal & Spread is the same as Wheel & Spread. However, from a Tidal setup (e.g., from an As Couples Two-Faced Line), they are quite different. EN: 130

Is it okay for someone to backup for a Spread? (e.g., from Trade By?)

Calls commonly used at Plus that can be followed by SpreadEN: 140

Slide [A2] (Lee Kopman 1966):
From a Wave or other applicable 4-dancer formation. Ends and adjacent Centers slide nose-to-nose past one another to exchange places. EN: 904
Z formace Wave a dalších vhodných formací čtyř tanečníkĹŻ. Koncoví a ti Centers, se kterými se drží, si úkrokem stranou, čelem k sobě, vymění místa. CZ: 904

Slim Down [C4]:
From any 2 x 4 or other applicable formation. Without turning, Centers move one position toward the nearest unoccupied outside position as Outsides move one position toward the center. Everyone does either a sidestep right, sidestep left, step forward, or step backward. From Columns, Slim Down is the same as SpreadEN: 905
