 Wham

Definition:
 

From double pass thru or completed double pass thru formation, eight chain thru or Trade By formation, and from lines of four facing in or out: Call is ordinarily directed to the "leads" (when one couple is behind another), but in Trade By formation or eight chain thru, the caller designates who is to Wham. In lines, the ends are considered the leads. Can also be followed by In, Out, Right or Left. Leads (or ends, or those designated) execute a Peel Off and then pass by the other Whammer to finish back to back unless there is an In, Out, Right or Left call added.

Gus Greene 1975
