<div><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="3">Says nothing about direction of the 1/4 rolls vs. the spin direction, so that has to be optional. The description does not say the 1/4 rolls are opposite each other, so they are in the same direction. The aresti also shows them in the same direction.</font></div>

<div align="LEFT"><font face="Arial" size="3">So as I read it, since the part rolls are consecutive, they must have a line between them. Only if they were opposite would there be no line.</font></div>

Clown dance question in F13
Of course the first question should be who gave it that name and why.
Real question: Are the 2 1/4 rolls after the spin in the same
direction, opposite direction or does it matter? Should there be a
straight line between the rolls or instantaneous like the spin reversals?
