After looking the dance up, I see that the B1 and B2 are actually:


B1: Take hands in a ring.
   Balance the ring (4)
   Pass through to an ocean wave (4)
   Balance the wave (4)
   N Allemande R x1 (4)

B2: Ladies Allemande L 1+1/2 to partner (8)
   Partner swing (8)

The key is that the pass through is across the set, not up and down  
the set.

[Rich Goss]

I came across this old thread.  I'm unclear on the exact name (is it Punch or 
Bunch?) and the author (is it Diane Silver?)

Cool dance!

Thanks, Rich

[Bree Kalb]

Thanks to Linda and Bob for confirming my assumption about Redbeard Reel; I 
also appreciate Bob's historical note! Great dance, Bob.


Joy, I got Fruit Bunch from Diane a couple of years ago.  Yes, it is a 
Becket.  The A part is correct. Here's the B:


B1 Take hands in a ring
 Balance the ring; pass thru to a wave*,
 Balance the wave
Neighbor allmd Rt 1/2; Men pull by the Left to Partner
B2 Partner Bal and Swg

*still with same Neighbors, women in the center; neighbor on your right

Speaking of dances with missing details, I have a great dance called
Fruit Punch.  Diane Silver called it at Bogue Banks Boogie a few years
ago.  Not sure who wrote it (maybe Diane?).

I evidently wrote it down wrong since it doesn't progress but instead
keeps sending the dancers back and forth.  Someone said it felt like
it was missing a circle somewhere.  Does it start with a circle left
half way into a slide left?   Does anyone have the correct
choreography?   I haven't heard back from Diane yet about this question.

What I have is this:

Fruit Punch  by Diane or?
I have Improper written down, but it looks like a Becket.

A1 With couple on L diagonal, Yearn to new Neighbors and fall straight
back (8)
Ladies Allem R 1+1/2 (8)

A2 N Balance & Swing (16)

B1 Take hands in a ring.
Balance the ring (4)
Pass through to an ocean wave (4)
Balance the wave (4)
N Allemande R x1 (4)

B2 Ladies Allemande L 1+1/2 to partner (8)
Partner swing (8)


Thanks for any clarification anyone might have.

Hi Joy:
 
I don't know this one either, but another try is:

B1 Take hands in a ring.
Balance the ring (4)
Pass through to an ocean wave (4)
Balance the wave (4)
N Allemande R 1/2 (4)

B2 Gents Allemande L 1+1/2 to partner (8)
Partner swing (8)
