+ | ===== Detailed Description ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Dancers are arranged as follows: | ||
+ | |||
+ | music | ||
+ | 1 4 | ||
+ | 5 | ||
+ | 2 3 | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Chorus ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | #5 hits the ground, then sticks twice with #1, then ground and #2, then ground and #3, then ground and #4. Repeat. | ||
+ | |||
+ | For the other dancers, the pattern is left-right-center-up. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Different teams do different numbers of clashes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Figures ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | == Crossover == | ||
+ | |||
+ | The four outside dancers (#1-4) dance toward the middle, turning (to the left) their backs on #5, then continue backing out to corner' | ||
+ | |||
+ | == Reel (or Hey) == | ||
+ | |||
+ | The line that includes #1, 5, 3 dance one cycle through a hey (passing right shoulders the first time). | ||
+ | |||
+ | == Weave == | ||
+ | |||
+ | This figure looks different in every video. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The figure is double-length, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Dancers #2 & 4 are posts and stand in place for the entire figure. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The line of #1, 5, 3 dance around #4 and approach #2. When #1 is facing #2, #1 circles around to the left to the back of the line of dancers, and #5, 3, 1 dance around #2 and back to #4. Now #5 circles around to the back of the line, and dancers #3, 1, 5 circle around #4. When the line again reaches #2, #3 circles around to the back of the line, and dancers #1, 5, 3 continue to their original places. | ||
+ | |||
+ | A double-length B is longer than you need, so move slowly. | ||
+ | |||
+ | == Cross & Pass == | ||
+ | |||
+ | Similar to crossover, but cross once through the middle, then pass across the set (turning your back on your partner as you pass). | ||
+ | |||
+ | == Surreel == | ||
+ | |||
+ | This is a linked hey. Dancers #1 & 4 are linked, and #2 & 3 are linked. | ||
+ | |||
+ | == Aardvark == | ||
+ | |||
+ | This is a double-length figure, so it requires 2 times through the A (sticking) music. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Dancer #2 peels off the top and dances toward the bottom. | ||
