Echo CONCEPT [C3B]
(Geo Jedlicka)

C3B:

Language:

Echo As Couples 1/2 Tag:


before		after As Couples 1/2 Tag		after 1/2 Tag (done)

Echo Tandem Hinge:


before		after Tandem Hinge		after Hinge (done)

Echo 6 By 2 Acey Deucey:


before		after 6 By 2 Acey Deucey		after Acey Deucey (done)

Echo Tandem Twosome Cast Off 3/4:


before		after Tandem Twosome Cast Off 3/4		after Cast Off 3/4 (done)

Notes:

Do the entire call without the word Echo; then do the call again without the word Echo and without the first CONCEPT. EN: 20
- For example, Echo Cross Concentric Spin The Top is a Cross Concentric Spin The Top followed by a Spin The Top (the concept Cross Concentric was removed, not the word Cross). EN: 25
Be careful to remove only the first Concept. For example, take L-H Columns and do a Split Phantom Column Circulate Twice. From this formation, consider an Echo Split Phantom Waves Tandem Spin The Top. It would be a Split Phantom Waves Tandem Spin The Top, followed by a Tandem Spin The Top. EN: 30
Used with parts-related Concepts, Echo can quickly get difficult. EN: 50

CONTRAST THE FOLLOWING

(from R-H Columns): EN: 52
- Echo Tandem 1/4 Thru:
  
  1. Tandem 1/4 Thru;
  
  2. 1/4 Thru.
- Echo Initially Tandem 1/4 Thru:
  
  1. Initially Tandem 1/4 Thru;
  
  2. 1/4 Thru.
  
  Yes, the above case could be ambiguous, and could be dependent upon the caller's delivery, you might be tempted to just remove Initially. Since Initially requires a following concept, we believe you should remove both Initially and the follow- ing concept. This is similar to the Echo Cross Concentric situation mentioned previously. EN: 54
- Initially Echo Tandem 1/4 Thru:
  
  1. Echo Tandem Right Arm Turn 1/4
  
  (Tandem Right Arm Turn 1/4 then Right Arm Turn 1/4) EN: 56
  
  2. (Centers) Left Arm Turn 1/2.

Suggestion for callers: Do not use Echo with parts-related concepts at C3B. Only use at C4, and then only sparingly. EN: 80

The following extensions of Echo are used at C4: EN: 90
