注意:
  • The anything call must end in an applicable 2 x 2 (e.g., a Mini-Wave Box). Each Trailer must then be able to diagonally pull by with an opposite dancer within the 2 x 2. EN: 50
  • Although the anything call can involve more than 4 dancers, the & Cross part of the call is done within a box of 4. If the ending formation after the anything call is a 2 x 4, then each 2 x 2 does the & Cross (i.e., work Split). EN: 60
  • Use the outside hand (of the 2 x 2) for the Pull By. From a Right-Hand Box use the left hand, and vice-versa. EN: 70
  • From a Static Set, on a call such as Heads Touch 1/4 & Cross, only the Heads are active, and only the Head Boy 'Crosses'. The Sides do not move. EN: 80

anyone Cross [A1]: (added to A1 in 2008)

From Facing Couples, some callers give commands such as Boys Cross, Girls Cross, Beau Cross, or Belle Cross. EN: 90

This terminology can be misleading since 'Cross' is often used as a concept in Challenge-level dancing. It is a term used to modify other calls - for example: Cross Run, Cross Fold. EN: 100

So what does anyone Cross mean? We believe there are two interpretations: EN: 110
  1. Designated dancers do their part of an anything & Cross (i.e., Pull By with outside hands). EN: 120
  2. Designated dancers do their part of Crossover Circulate (i.e., from Facing Couples, this is a diagonal Pass Thru). EN: 130
Although both of the above interpretations give the same ending position, the traffic pattern is different. EN: 140
