Choreographer's note:
After the dance was first introduced, several variations
crept in which made the dance a little more challenging
and fun, expecially when done to the faster music.
Variations on stamps:
On counts 20, 24 and 26, I've seen a double stamp replace the single stamp.
Variations on vines:
Vines can be done as "rolling vines", i.e. vines
with a full turn in the direction of the vine.
Variations on flicks:
Cross over and place toe beside foot (Count 1),
Kick forward (Count 2), Step-ball-change while turning 1/2 (Counts 3&4).
Doing this for both "flicks" will position you properly
to begin the shuffle forward.
