Sugar Hill euphoria is a very good explanation! Happy to help...

Ah yes. I was thinking about the progression wrong when I decided
it was
single progression (which made the nobody-out-at-the-top very
strange so I
should have figured it out.) Blame it on Sugar Hill euphoria (grin).
Thanks Linda

The dance is a double progression. The first neighbor couple dance
by in
the diagonal 1/2 hey; this is the only dancing that is done with
them. The
second couple is then found in the completion of the hey across the
set. One
hint to double progressions is not having a couple out at the top.
And Seth
actually spells it: ContraQuad

the author of the dance.
It's a fun dance. Does anyone recognize it?
Becket contra
A1: Circle balance; Petronella turn; [no time for clapping]
Nieghbor
Swing.
A2: Circle balance; Petronella turn; [no time for clapping]
Partner
Swing.
B1: Right Diagonal Ladies pass right shoulders to start 1/2
Hey. Gents
follow partner in Hey;
Across with new neighbors, Ladies pass right shoulders to
start 1/2
Hey Gents follow partner in Hey.
B2: Partner Balance+Swing.
Notes:
Single CCW progression, but you're always in at the top.
With an odd number of couples, the extra couple at the bottom
waits
becket
on
the side that lets them join the right diagonal hey. That's
where they
end
up when they become the "out" couple, so they should NOT cross.
