Fwiw, if I were to write a variation of 3-33-33 (and wanted to avoid ladies
chain/star L), I'd do a figure like in Al Olson's 'Ann Arbor Four': long
lines (8), P alle. R 3/4 (4), ladies alle. L 1/2 (4). Agreed that ladies'
allemande L out of long lines, while there's no reason it doesn't flow, is
bizarrely counterintuitive!

B1 Circle L 3/4, Partner Swing
B2 Long Lines F&B, Ladies dosido 1.5
I'm aware of a "fix" to 333 where the W DSD 1.5 at the end of B2 was
replaced by a W allem L 1.5.. I think I remember talking to Steve about
this and he referred to this as an "approved alternative" HIMSELF..
I've both danced and called this alternate ending, and that allemande L
is pretty counterintuitive for the women. It causes some glitches as
folks fight with their natural instinct to allemande R. It works, but
you'll need to be really clear with the dancers that it's the
non-obvious hand there.
