The ladies perform the 1/2 hey, crossing the set.  

The gents start the 1/2 hey, but meet in the center, touch hands, and bounce 
back (or Richochet)  to their same side.

I would refer to the action by saying "as couples, weave past two couples, 
finish facing 3rd couple".  Of course, I come from a square dance background 
where we "weave the ring".  This would merely be a derivation of that call. 

  

What I'm not clear on is the richochet. I've heard the term, but am not sure of 
the execution. Care to elaborate? 

  

Thanks,
