I agree that changing the rollaway so ladies roll their partners away
left-to-right fixes the issue I raised in A1 of "Tamlin's Cross." I think
it would be a fun variation on the rollaway-swing transition, which, in my
experience, is always done with gents rolling ladies away.

Hi Dugan,
Thanks for the feedback! I liked the gents roll partner away (from R to L)
when it went into a DSD (it feeds the common twirl direct); but I can see
your concern when it's running right into the swing.
Would ladies roll their partner (L to R) work better in your opinion? The
gents would pick up the same clockwise rotation they have in a swing. It's
more on the Ladies role to catch then.
