C. Unless there were a truly compelling reason in the choreo (which I've
not encountered to date).
I've heard it described as swinging a partner you don't get to choose.
To a lesser degree but similar in property is a trail buddy swing in a 4F4.
There you may have some arguable choice, and typically such instances are
"corner" swings, so happening half as frequently.

Prompted by some recent conversations, I’m curious how
folks here feel
about shadow swings!
1. As a caller, do you:
A) not have an issue with shadow swings, and program them freely
B) not tend to program them just bc they don’t come up in your repertoire,
but have no issue with them
C) not program shadow swings as a matter of principle
D) some secret fourth thing (feel free to elaborate!)?
2. How do you feel about shadow swings as a dancer?
Will weigh in with my thoughts later, both to avoid biasing the
conversation from the outset, and also because I’m currently in transit 😅
Thanks for participating in the data gathering!
Cheers,
Maia
