One-Faced Line から:       Explode The Line の前   after Centers Step Ahead, all 1/4 In and adjust to Facing Couples (after Explode)   Right Pull By の後 (終わり)

3 & 1 Line から:       Explode The Line の前   after Centers Step Ahead, all 1/4 In and adjust to Facing Couples (after Explode)   Right Pull By の後 (終わり)

Two-Faced Line から:       Explode The Line の前   after Centers Step Ahead, all 1/4 In and adjust to Facing Couples (after Explode)   Right Pull By の後 (終わり) Note: From a Two-Faced Line, the dance action for Explode The Line is often awkward. Many callers believe it is illegal, or avoid calling it from any Line in which the Centers are facing opposite directions.

• Explode The Line is the generalization of Explode The Wave [Plus].
• The most important thing to remember about Explode The Line is "Centers Step Forward".
• If an End and adjacent Center are facing the same direction, the End should back up slightly before turning 1/4. Dancing Explode this way is preferable because, upon completion of the call, the Couples are not offset and no adjustment is required.
• Be sure to adjust to Facing Couples before the Right Pull By. Should you fail to do this, you may end offset after the Pull By. The ending formation should be Back-to-Back Couples.
• After Explode, everyone can Roll. After Explode The Line, nobody can Roll.
