I believe the correct title for the dance described below by Laur is "Mange Tak" (not "Mange Talk", "Mongatack", or "Manga Tok"). That's how it's spelled in the 2009 RPDLW syllabus http://www.library.unh.edu/special/forms/rpdlw/syllabus2009.pdf It's the correct spelling for "many thanks" in

Will This dance really looks like Spare Parts by Jim Kitch. The only difference - in Spare Parts instead of a Right & Left Through the choreography calls for Pass Through/Cal Twirl. Will On Jan 10, 2011, at 11:12 AM, Will Loving wrote: We have a dance that is very similar to Bob Isaac's

We have a dance that is very similar to Bob Isaac's "The Judge", but which appears to pre-date it. The main difference is in A2: the diagonals are on different directions and the order of the moves is reversed. Just interested to know if anyone can identify the Mystery one. I've listed both below.

This dance looks like a lot of fun, and I'm going to try it. At first glance (without working it through via Smurf toys), it looks to me like the first turn of the wave makes folks face the "wrong way" up or down the set, with the Ladies Al-L 1/2 in the A2 turning them back in the direction of
