Mac,
That is really what I was thinking of.
Unique or seldom used figures. (I call Roll Over Johannes with a rip 'n
snort.)
Add to that unusual sequences and progressions.

have not seen in any other contra
Deep Well by Kathy Anderson - unique way to get into a star

*Subject:* [Callers] Novelty & Gimmick Contras
Here I am with another question. I learn so much from these threads.
What are some easy, but good, novelty, or gimmick contras. To elaborate,
I mean contras that have unusual moves, or contras that use basic moves in
unusual ways.
Maybe Ovals, Wholeset Promenades, Old-Timey square dance moves?
Two of my favorites are "Hot Buttered Rolls" and "Roll Over
Johannes"
