Whip with two outside turns into over-rotated open position
·1 min
Start in a [open] position. The footwork and handwork are exactly the same as a [whip with an outside turn] up to an including step 6. A common error is to begin leading the outside turn before 6 rather than at the end of 6. Perform a whip with two outside turns. On 7 step forward towards 12 o’clock such that your right foot points at 3 o’clock while leading one full outside pivot turn with the left hand, on 8 lead another outside pivot turn while you turn to face 3 o’clock. You should end in an over-rotated [open] position because you face 3 o’clock as opposed to 12 o’clock and because the follower face 9 o’clock instead of 6 o’clock.
