Variations
The forward and back in this figure can be replaced by other 8 bar figures.
In Rights and Lefts and Track, the active couples rights and lefts across the set. When they reach home, the track proceeds as normal, with the man using the lady's left hand to pull her across him to begin the track.
In Telescope and Track, the active couples do a normal telescope. When they reach home, the track proceeds as normal, with the man using the lady's right hand to pull her across him to begin the track. To make this figure a little easier, take left hands for the second half of the telescope instead of the right. This can be done with either a half turn or a kissing telescope.
