Background: Triple Trade was defined by Roger Chapman from Winter Haven, Florida in 1970. The original definition was “From a Tidal Wave or Line of eight with couples alternately facing: Ends stand pat as the three couples in the center swing half.”
Triple Trade was in the Mainstream Plus One list in 1978. It was moved to Advanced in 1995 and listed in A-1.
Definition:
Starting formations: From Tidal Waves, Tidal Two-Faced Lines, Point-to-Point Diamonds, six-dancer Ocean Wave, or any 3 pairs of adjacent dancers
Dance action: The two end dancers remain in place as the three adjacent pairs of dancers (the six in the center) Trade with each other.
Ending formations: When all 3 pairs of adjacent dancers are Mini-Waves, the ending formation is the same as the starting formation.
Timing: 4
