"Do you mean you are not capable of stepping LF one beat. RF one beat. LF one beat. RF one beat. If you can't something is wrong with you. All of our top dancers can and do.Mirko can do it can't he. Wake up and look."
Sure, and I might do that on an extended WEAVE where it could work well.
But please shoot me in the head if you ever see me do something so outrageously ignorant on a FEATHER or other classic SQQ foxtrot figure.
Look at the numbers again:
Sinkinson, Blackpool 1998:
Duration of foot movements:
Feather: 21, 19, 30
Reverse: 20, 17, 30
F. Finish: 21, 17, 31
Seeing the pattern yet?
Each SQQ gets a full measure. If he starts the feather "late" (he does) then he starts the reverse and equal amount "late" because each figure gets a full four beats worth of time.
**Every interval is longer than a beat. The shortest (between the slow and the first quick) only slightly so, but the interval between the quicks is teh BETTER PART OF TWO BEATS.
Kindly explain how Mr. Sinkinson squeezes the better part of TWO BEATS OF TIME into ONE BEAT?
