Anonymous. Not quite right again. The Quick Open Reverse finishes on the fouth step. This doubles as the first step of the next movement. This could be a Progressive Chasse. It could be a Four Quick Run. A nice one is into a Throwaway Oversway. You could use a Reverse Pivot turning half a turn into another Quick Open Reverse. You could tag on a few Scatter Chasses if you wished. I hope we are talking the International Style here. I wouldn't make any comments on another style because I haven't got a clue. One is enough.

Should have checked your book before you using that argument - the feather finish finishes on the fourth step too (well, 7th step since it's described in the reverse turn).

Anonymous. Here we go.Page 93 Alex
Moore .The Four Quick Run, Seven Steps
THT. T. T. T. T. TH. H. Timing
S.Q.Q.Q.Q.S.S. 1. Back RF turning to the left. 2. Small step to the side and slightly foreward along LOD with LF facing wall. 3. Small step foreward RF with partner outside. Diag to wall.
4. Left foot diag. forward. 5. Cross RF behind LF. (not tightly(. 6. LF diag. forward. 7. RF. forward outside partner, diag. to wall. The last step can be the first of the next movement for instance a Lockstep. If I include the Reverse Turn with a four Quick Run Finish there will be Ten Steps in all. This is were the confusion starts. If asked to do a Quick Open Reverse I will stop on step Four and say . Now what do you want me to do. Answere. A Four Quick Run. I will now use the last step of the Reverse as the first step of the Four Quick Run and finishing on my right foot which can be used as the first step of the next movement. Anybody who doesn't understand this will also not be able to tell which is the first and last step of the Three Step in the FOxtrot. Just one last thing. I never wrote the book, I'm just quoting. If I had been asked, not all that long ago, which is the first step of a three step, like 99 people out of a 100 I would have said the left foot, and I would have been wrong according to the book it is the RF...

I really haven't a clue what we are arguing about since we seem to agree.
