- Description

In the first eight bars it can be a bit tight in a ball situation - an alternative would be an offset parallel figure if eight around 3s - so the man would dance it first around 3rd M and then around a “ghost” inside the set - as the lady does first inside then around 3rd W. I’m not site if it has a name but it’s quite a fun figure : )

This comment could give rise to an interesting discussion on the Strathspey List; it should be posted there. It is irrelevant to the database, which is not a place for discussion about creating new variants to dances. Ignore. Eric

I agree in general. However, please note, that the person posting this information was the devisor of the dance himself, which might make it worth adding the information as a extra info.
If it were anyone else than the devisor - fully aggreed!
