hook: Star to shadows’ wave, to long waves
by: Moose Flores, Stephen Ulrich
formation: Becket
Shadows: Face your partner, and look past them to the next person looking back at you.
Wave: the wave after the star is a short wave across the set, with ladles facing their direction of travel.
(optional: "gentlespoons step into the center & walk to your shadow, make a wave of four. Okay now reset & go back to your partner.")

end effect: When you and your shadow have no line of 4 to join, you may wait in place to join long lines (or maybe sneak in a quick swing?).
end effect: When a couple is out at the end, wait half-sashayed to dance with your shadow, then do partner swing on your new side of the set to be ready for the slice.
