What I've come up with is below. Anyone got a prior on it? Anyone got a variant with a gents/larks chain they like more? The New Combination A1 ----------- (4,12) Neighbors balance and swing A2 ----------- (6) Down the hall four line (4) Pair on the right make an arch, gent/lark on the left lead through, lady/robin on the right walks to far side, inverting the line (8) Come back up the hall and bend the ends B1 ----------- (6) Circle left 3/4 (10) Partners swing B2 ----------- (8) Gents/Larks chain (pull by left, courtesy turn with neighbor) (8) Right-hand star 1x I'm planning on using Gene's original tonight in Belfast (and probably the vast majority of the time, it's a great dance); but I thought an accessible gents/larks chain would be nice. I appreciate hearing your thoughts. -- Luke Donforth Luke.Donforth@gmail.com<mailto:Luke.Donev@gmail.com>

For title, might I suggest "The Dixie Combination"? The couple trading figure is often called a Dixie Twirl, and there already exist "A New Combination" and "The Nice Combination". On Fri, Aug 2, 2019 at 2:28 PM Luke Donforth via Callers < callers(a)lists.sharedweight.net&gt; wrote:
