Split Recycle [C1]:

From applicable formations. Each 2 x 2 do a Box Recycle. EN: 60

Notes:

Since Split Recycle is the original name for this call, there are several callers who always call it by that name. EN: 70
From a Mini-Wave, Box Recycle feels like a Box Counter Rotate 1/4 & Hinge. When doing Box Recycle from a Mini-Wave, hold onto the adjacent dancer throughout the entire call. EN: 80
From an In-facing Couple, only the Beaus can Roll. From Mini-Waves, everyone can Roll. EN: 90
From unambiguous setups (e.g., from Columns), the caller can simply say Recycle instead of Box Recycle. EN: 100
Some callers believe that from a 2 x 4 such as Waves or Columns, Box Recycle means Center 4 (Concentric) Box Recycle whereas Split Recycle means each side Box Recycle. We prefer the callers to be more explicit as in 'Centers Box Recycle'. EN: 110
