Break up the call into its component parts, and do the parts in reverse order. EN: 10

See also Calls With Parts.

Reverse Order Recoil:


before Reverse Order Recoil		after Step & Fold		after Box Recycle (done)

Reverse Order Travel Thru:


before Reverse Order Travel Thru		after As Couples 1/4 Right		after Pass Thru (done)

Reverse Order Diamond Chain Thru:


before Reverse Order Diamond Chain Thru		after Centers Cast Off 3/4		after Very Centers Trade		after Diamond Circulate (done)

Note: Some callers simply say Reverse when they mean Reverse Order. This can often be ambiguous. Consider Reverse Recoil: does the caller want a Reverse (Mirror) Recycle then Step & Fold, or does the caller want a Step & Fold then Split Recycle? EN: 20

CONTRAST THE FOLLOWING

(Starting from Parallel Waves): EN: 30

Reverse Order Split Turn The Key:

Hinge; Split Counter Rotate 1/4; Trade.

Ends in Columns. EN: 40

Split Reverse Order Turn The Key:

Hinge; Lockit; Trade.

Ends in a Tidal Wave. EN: 45

In the latter case, you hear the word Split first, and hence you must divide the starting formation into two 2 x 2s. Each 2 x 2 then does the call. EN: 50
