One of the challenges of a Ricochet Hey is the name - it is not actually a
Hey in any sense of the word, though Ricochets mixed with Half Heys do make
pleasing figures.

I have had a few challenges with this as well, but in trying to think of a
way to do it better, I just had a major breakthrough... I think!

I just realised that a Ricochet Hey is actually a Mad Robin in which the
people passing through the middle interact with each other.

So, next time I teach it I am going to try getting the dancers to do a Mad
Robin first then get them to change their path from a rectangle to a pizza
slice and touch hands in the middle.

Does that make sense?

Happy dancing,
John
