Donna,

I wonder if you're referring to the square dance I have as Roll Away by Traditional.

A1. Heads (sides) Forward & Back
Heads right and left through 
A2: Heads pass through, cross trail, go around two to end in lines at the sides (heads are at ends of lines far from their home spot.
Lines dance Forward up 8 & Back that way.
B1/B2: Two Ladies/Robins, roll away, Two Gents/Larks, roll away, middle two roll away, Everybody roll away (your corner)
Swing your partner, swing away!

Square your set (all swings were at home). All roll-aways in this figure have right person rolling in front of left person.

Kathy has for a long time called a square with the B1 figure of roll aways
Maybe the dance is one of hers?

Sounds like something he would put together.  
The B1 roll aways are from a position of the line of 4 facing up.   Thanks Chris.  You’re in the video btw.

I stumbled across this dance on YouTube.  No comment on what the dance is called.  Nothing I could find in callers box.  Any idea what it’s called or who wrote it?
