As a matter of nomenclature, it's a box circulate, the box being the hands four. Wave
circulate could mean for the wave to circle, but in any case the precedent is to call it a
box circulate.
Zig zags take way less time than you think, so you could get your dance going CW by
circling once and a quarter before the zig zag. To get everyone to the right side, instead
of the see saw, you could do a star promenade with the new N. W in for a ricochet, P Alle
R to the short wave (really it's just touch a quarter since you don't even go
1/2.). I think you will find a Cir 3/4 and zig zag will consistently get everyone to new
neighbors early.

Greetings fellow callers,
I recently wrote a dance, but can't think of a name. I'm calling it this
evening, so I'm hoping something will happen that makes a funny story as to
how the dance got its name. Failing that, I was wondering if any of you had
any suggestions.
