Notes:

With Confidence is usually used as a suffix to the preceding call.
Dancers who meet in the Mini-Wave sometimes get confused as to how to orient the ending formation. Hence, it is important that the dancers who meet in a Couple simply step forward (to become Leaders in Parallel Two-Faced Lines) and stay put thus holding the spot for the other dancers.

Variations:

With Confidence But Hold The Wave
With Confidence But Hold The Two-Faced Line
Centers start a With Confidence (From a Galaxy)
Ends start a With Confidence (From Twin Diamonds)

Short Cycle [C4] (Lee Kopman 1982): From a Wave. As one movement, Centers U-Turn Back by turning away from the Center of the Wave; Couples Hinge. Ends in a Two-Faced Line.
