Said C1 dancer (whoever he is) is probably used to dancing so slowly (stop-and-start) as never to break a sweat with his leather bear gear on. He should grow a brain and sacrifice his idea of fashion for a little practicality on the dance floor.
Re Ett's A2 style: Just imagine what she does at C1! Concentric 1/3 Recycle... or something like that. And that's tame.
Glad you enjoyed Ben Rubright. John and I are particular fans of his, if only because we learned not only our C1 but also our C2 and our (now-mostly-forgotten) C3A from him. If you dance enough with him, the logic of his momentarily arcane figures comes clear... and you realize that it has really terrific flow. And of course, the more you dance with him, the more familiar those figures become. (Though that's of course true with any caller -- even Sybalsky. Well, maybe not.)
