Stretch Concept [C1]

From applicable 8-dancer formations.

Do the given 4-dancer call with the resulting Centers ending in the far Center positions. The given call must be a call that can be done with four dancers.

To get to the proper ending position, it is always possible to do the call in each group of 4, and then those who end as the centermost 4 dancers do a 'Substitute' with each other, moving away from the dancers with whom they have done the call. To dance this smoothly, the substitution is accomplished at some time during the call. This optimal time (usually toward call completion) varies and is dependent upon the call.

注意:
  • The resulting Centers move along the long axis of the resulting formation, crossing the flagpole center of the 8-dancer formation.
  • From Parallel Two-Faced Lines, Ferris Wheel is identical to Stretch Wheel & Deal.
  • At C1, the Stretch CONCEPT is primarily limited to calls that start from Parallel Lines.
