Ceder Square Dance System (CSDS) ==> Choreography

From Diamonds, Outsides Face In
I was trying to do something on your program and maybe I wasn't wording it right. I had the dancers in a diamond formation and want those dancer outside (not in the wave) to face in so I could make the other dancers extend. I said outside and ends, what is the proper word for me to use?

Whenever you have a choreo question or 'how to word it' question, it's best to give me the entire sequence, so I have a clue as to what the problem is.

From Twin Diamonds, 'Points', 'Outsides', and 'Ends' are all equivalent.

Any of the following should work:

  1. Heads Lead Right,
    Touch 1/4,
    Centers Hinge,
    Points Face In
  2. Heads Lead Right,
    Touch 1/4,
    Centers Hinge,
    Outsides Face In
  3. Heads Lead Right,
    Touch 1/4,
    Centers Hinge,
    Ends Face In

Personally, I prefer the term 'Outsides'.

In CSDS, Outsides designates the 4 dancers furthest from the center of the set.

From some formations, the term 'Ends' can be ambiguous. For example, from a Tidal Wave: Ends Trade. Do the Outside 4 Trade, or do the Ends of each Wave trade?
