As a matter of nomenclature, it's a box circulate, the box being the hands four. Wave circulate could mean for the wave to circle, but in any case the precedent is to call it a box circulate. Zig zags take way less time than you think, so you could get your dance going CW by circling once and a quarter before the zig zag. To get everyone to the right side, instead of the see saw, you could do a star promenade with the new N. W in for a ricochet, P Alle R to the short wave (really it's just touch a quarter since you don't even go 1/2.). I think you will find a Cir 3/4 and zig zag will consistently get everyone to new neighbors early. Andrea
