Noter:
  • Brace Thru is a sex-dependent call. After the Right Pull By, each couple must consist of one Boy and one Girl. Brace Thru can not be done if any Couple consists of same-sex dancers. EN: 50
  • The U-Turn Back is done by turning toward each other. This is important in case the caller adds a RollEN: 60
  • Brace Thru is a variation of Right & Left Thru. The Courtesy Turn action is either done normally (as a Couple), or individually (i.e., U-Turn Back). Whether you do a Courtesy Turn or U-Turn Back depends respectively on whether you are a Normal or a Half-Sashayed Couple. EN: 70
  • Brace Thru is useful for callers since it resolves sex-problems within the square. After a Brace Thru, everyone ends in normal Facing Couples (Boy on Left, Girl on Right). EN: 80
  • In 2012, Callerlab renamed Half Breed Thru to Brace ThruEN: 85
  • Historical note: The original definition of Half Breed Thru had a Pass Thru instead of a Right Pull By. EN: 90
