introduces moves: pull by dancers, petronella, pass through
formation: improper
This is a variation on contra-cordions or contra-accordions or whatever it's called by James Hudson and Scott Higgs. I basically kept their A1 and messed around with the rest.
| A1 | 2 | neighbors pull by right
|
| 6 | next neighbors allemande left once
| |
| 2 | neighbors pull by right
| |
| 6 | prev neighbors allemande left once
| |
| A2 | 16 | neighbors balance & swing
|
| B1 | 8 | circle left 3 places
|
| 8 | partners swing
| |
| B2 | 8 | balance & petronella
|
| 4 | balance the ring
| |
| 4 | pass through
|
So the catch on the progression is that people have to balance the ring and drop hands before passing through, otherwise ladles will basically be trying to pull by right twice.

Notes from Bob Isaacs: Written on August 7, 2012 as a smushing together of the B2/A1 of "A Sure Thing" and A2/B1 of "Trust," to put both transitions in the same dance. Chris learned to dance and call at Glenside before moving to San Diego a decade ago. This dance has it all; a new transition, good flow into both swings, and the beautiful/circle R/pousette progression.
