Hi all,
I'm still recovering from the red eye I took back from my most recent PNW trip.
Below find my first crack at a Dolphin Hey contra, referred to by Lindsey,
written about 6 months ago.
Porpoiseful Play
Imp
A1 LL F&B [In the original, which is a tad more challenging, this is a Mad
Robin CW around New N's.] ****
1's gypsy 1+ until M1 can face M2, with W2 falling in right behind.
A2 Dolphin Hey for three across, 1's acting as a unit. M1 passes M2 Rsh to
begin.
At the end of the hey, the ones keep curving over the M2's original place,
passing M2 again as M 2 heads across the set to his P.
B1 P Gypsy and Sw
B2 M Alle L 1 1/2
N Sw
****I called an even smoother version in Portland, with a leave 'em then love
'em Mad Robin, in which the ones go in and to the R while the 2's go out and to
the L to begin. This is still a CW MR, but you gaze at your partner on the
long diagonal as you separate, then return. The crowd contained more ECD
dancers than the usual contra crowd, but everyone seemed to get it equally
well, and enjoyed the whole confection.
